Review of The Monuments Men (2014) by Jy S — 31 Aug 2014
George Clooney tells an intriguing story regarding art in The Monuments Men; just not in a.
Creative way.
Traversing 110 minutes of historical art seizing, the film portrays a level of staleness. The level of entertainment never hits a high; however, the story gets points for its so-called accurateness and character comradery.
The attempt at humor never works to its fullest, partly because the rest of the film steers more toward the drama and partly because it isn't funny. When it comes down to it, this is a minor blemish as this is more a dramatic adventure than anything else.There isn't much to fault with the cast. George Clooney, Matt Damon, and Cate Blanchett know what to bring with their performances. It's the characters themselves that are lacking.
The Monuments Men has its share of disappointing along with its share of praising critiques. Recommendable if time allows.
