Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Craig Mathieson (459) for The Sunday Age (488) on 11 Mar 2014

Clooney and Heslov fail to settle on a tone, or at least tie the contrasting moods together…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Anthony Morris (102) for The Vine (179) on 11 Mar 2014

Clooney has too much reverence for his story, and as a result he does it about the biggest disservice possible: he makes it boring…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Matthew Toomey (680) for ABC Radio Brisbane (680) on 11 Mar 2014

While it's an interesting tale, the screenplay does feel like it has too many characters and too many subplots…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Damien Straker (239) for Impulse Gamer (252) on 11 Mar 2014

For a film so boastful about preserving history, it seems all too content to commercialise its own story…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Simon Miraudo (882) for Quickflix (709) on 10 Mar 2014

One day we'll discover George Clooney is actually a long-forgotten screen idol from Hollywood's golden age who became unstuck from time, and…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Andrew L. Urban (972) for Urban Cinefile (2,850) on 08 Mar 2014

Sometimes perfunctory, often hitting false notes, the film lacks the punch of its story…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Louise Keller (804) for Urban Cinefile (2,850) on 08 Mar 2014

It's a story with scale, texture and layers and whatever it lacks in grit and tension (required for a story based on fact) is compensated by chutzpah…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Aine O'connor (240) for Sunday Independent (Ireland) (504) on 21 Feb 2014

The plot is not tight enough and there is no great sense of passion or urgency and there is a good bit of schmaltz…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Linda Cook (1,442) for Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) (1,206) on 21 Feb 2014

Part 'Hogan's Heroes' and part 'Saving Private Ryan,' 'The Monuments Men' shifts its tone too often to tell a consistent tale…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Tim Robey (1,578) for The Telegraph (1,120) on 18 Feb 2014

The problem isn't a lack of weight, but of lightness. It's stuck with lead feet for a historical caper and serves no other worthwhile purpose…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Paul Bradshaw (60) for Total Film (3,532) on 18 Feb 2014

An amazing story and an amazing cast don’t always make an amazing film…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Siobhan Synnot (412) for Scotsman (1,471) on 16 Feb 2014

In a nutshell it feels like a forgery, and not a particularly artful one…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Mark Kermode (1,002) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 16 Feb 2014

The tonal uncertainty undermines complete engagement, taking the edge off both the drama and the comedy, leaving the film floundering episodically…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 15 Feb 2014

Is The Monuments Men a disappointment? Yes, it is, but it isn't a crashing disappointment…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Paul Chambers (522) for Movie Chambers (386) on 14 Feb 2014

The screenplay is childlike and overly reverential…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Geoffrey Macnab (1,253) for Independent (UK) (2,026) on 14 Feb 2014

For all its tremendous production values, George Clooney's The Monuments Men is a profoundly frustrating and unsatisfying film…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Lori Hoffman (553) for Atlantic City Weekly (553) on 14 Feb 2014

Clooney's film seems stuck in the middle between popular and arthouse fare, and the result, while enjoyable, seems less engaging then you would…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Andrew Collins (119) for Radio Times (2,421) on 14 Feb 2014

The Monuments Men didn't need to be a work of art, but it still proves a monumental disappointment…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Charlotte O'sullivan (637) for London Evening Standard (2,015) on 14 Feb 2014

This is by no means a short film, yet somehow none of the characters, or any of their detective work, has time to make an impression…

Review of The Monuments Men (2014)

By Jason Best (961) for Movie Talk (957) on 14 Feb 2014

Clooney seems uncertain of the right tone to take, aiming here for a would-be comic guys-on-a-mission jauntiness and there for race-against-time-suspense…
