THIS FILM IS ENGLISH SPEAKING AND NOT LOOPED., NO VOICE OVER. This movie has just been remade as “MUNICK.”. This movie was totally overlooked by movie goers. Is it as good or better then the aforementioned? I think in some respects much better. My feeling is that Steven Bauer makes a better commando leader. I would have never believed that Spielberg would rip off this movie,...But he did...and here it is, This is a very action packed and fact filled film, and is a defiantly worth your time. The movie has not aged one bit, and in point of fact, this movie is more relevant today, then when it was made. Rent this film...You’ll like this version...For some this one IS GOING TO BE BETTER.. I think it out shines Spielberg effort

I recently saw a remake of this film called "Munich" and felt this was a far better rendition of this story..the acting was more realistic and the characters seemed truer to lilfe.. Steven Bauer, though very young certainly captured the essence of his character as a hired asassin for a noble cause better than the one in the subsequent film(Eric Bana). The excitement never ceases ...a film that must be seen. 4 stars!

Sword of Gideon was a privelege for me to veiw several times since 1986 and was remarkable when the movie Munich came out and the parrael was highly dramatize.
