The site's consensus reads, ' Munich can't quite achieve its lofty goals, but this thrilling, politically even-handed look at the fallout from an intractable political conflict is still well worth watching.' Praised the film, saying, 'With this film Spielberg has dramatically opened a wider dialogue, helping to make the inarguable into the debatable.'
He placed it at No. 3 on his top ten list of 2005. Wrote that ' Munich is an eye-opener – a motion picture that asks difficult questions, presents well-developed characters, and keeps us white-knuckled throughout.' He named it the best film of the year; it was the only film in 2005 to which Berardinelli gave four stars, and he also put it on his Top 100 Films of All Time list. Entertainment Weekly film critic Owen Gleiberman mentioned Munich amongst the best movies of the decade. Differently, Rex Reed from belongs to the group of critics who didn't like the film: 'With no heart, no ideology and not much intellectual debate, Munich is a big disappointment, and something of a bore.'
Reviewer called Munich a 'beautifully made' film. However, he criticized the film for failing to include 'compelling' characters, and for its use of laborious plotting and a 'flabby script.' McCarthy says that the film turns into '.a lumpy and overlong morality play on a failed thriller template.' To succeed, McCarthy states that Spielberg would have needed to engage the viewer in the assassin squad leader's growing crisis of conscience and create a more 'sustain(ed) intellectual interest' for the viewer.reviewer Allison Benedikt calls Munich a 'competent thriller', but laments that as an 'intellectual pursuit, it is little more than a pretty prism through which superficial Jewish guilt and generalized Palestinian nationalism' are made to '.
Look like the product of serious soul-searching.' Benedikt states that Spielberg's treatment of the film's 'dense and complicated' subject matter can be summed up as 'Palestinians want a homeland, Israelis have to protect theirs.' She rhetorically asks: 'Do we need another handsome, well-assembled, entertaining movie to prove that we all bleed red?' Another critique was Gabriel Schoenfeld's 'Spielberg's 'Munich' in the February 2006 issue of, who called it '. He compared the fictional film to history, asserted that Spielberg and especially Kushner felt that the Palestinian terrorists and the Mossad agents are morally equivalent and concluded: 'The movie deserves an Oscar in one category only: most hypocritical film of the year.' Writing in, Ian Nathan wrote ' Munich is Steven Spielberg’s most difficult film. It arrives already inflamed by controversy.

This is Spielberg operating at his peak — an exceptionally made, provocative and vital film for our times.' In defense of the climactic sex scene, critics Jim Emerson of the and Matt Zoller Seitz of compared it to Lady Macbeth's suicide in Shakespeare's, interpreting the sequence as representing the corruption of Avner's personal life as a result of his being conditioned to kill others in order to avenge Munich.
