Although the film uses artworks as the main storyline, in the two-hour-long film, there are very few works of art appearing in the screen. Most of the time, a few actors are constantly turning around in order to protect the two paintings. In addition, the portrayal of the characters in the film is far from the original, and George Clooney is negligent as a screenwriter and director. ()
The film starts with the sequence of development of events, the original perspective is admirable, and the presentation is somewhat convincing. However, in order to combine points and faces, Clooney took out several scenes full of dramatic tension and appealed to the screen in order to explain the successive encounters of the players in different regions. From the perspective of the plot, these stories, one after another, are all wonderful, but from the structural point of view, their theatrical function is open to question.
"Allied Treasures" has a high ambition, standing at the height of saving all mankind's art treasures, but after a little bit of thinking, it feels empty, nothing more than a typical Hollywood rescue routine. Apart from the dazzling art treasures, the story is lacklustre. The film is completely lost on the road of image transformation. It is like a sculpture. Apart from the unsatisfactory scattered details, the overall shaping is completely out of order, and even the historical tribute is weak. A plot that focuses on the US, the Soviet Army, and the Nazis is staged in which there is no wit and courage. The story is neither layered nor exciting. It appears dull and lacking in strength, and a good theme is wasted in vain.
