Leave your thoughts about One Day in September.
| New York Magazine/VultureJohn LeonardDirector Kevin Macdonald turns this material into a nonfiction thriller the more appalling for its resonance with the tape in our own heads. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekHas such a powerful subject...that it can hardly fail to make an emotional impact. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaMacdonald lets the facts speak for themselves, and what a powerful and unforgettable statement they indeed make. |
| Lawrence Journal-WorldDan LybargerFor a documentary about an incident that occurred nearly 30 years ago, "One Day in September" feels remarkably tense and urgent. |
| Film Journal InternationalMaria GarciaThin on investigative reporting, but thick with emotion. |
| NetflixJames RocchiOscar-winning documentary shows an Olympian tragedy in rich detail. |
| Nick's Flick PicksNick DavisMacdonald seems to continue the pattern of hiding the soil and fertilizing process of political crime beneath the more obvious sights and symptoms of that crime's most putrid expressions. |
| El Mundo (Spain)Luis MartínezUndoubtedly shows the ineptitude and ruthlessness of German authorities back then.[Full review in Spanish] |
| Matinee MagazineChuck RudolphThe only documentary of late not to resort to righteous emotional pandering or talking head syndrome. |
| User ReviewEric HVery good, Oscar-winning documentary taking a look at the tragic 1972 events at the Munich Olympic games where eleven Israeli athletes were taken hostage by Palestinian terrorists. The footage is masterfully played out, and even though you know what is coming, it grips you like few events can. |
