"Allied Treasure Team" is a battle for the treasure film that George Clooney teamed up and directed and starred in Hollywood actors. Treasure, the piecemeal plot has turned what should have been a passionate treasure hunting adventure into a European tour for dads. In fact, the film has a very beautiful beginning. A group of brave old cultural relic workers are not afraid of hardships, respond to the call for military training, and go to Europe to start a journey to defend the heritage of world civilization. After Europe, it became extremely tasteless. The problem with the film is very obvious that it lacks a focus and a reasonable leading role. I wonder if George Clooney is in order to thank many powerful people for their performance, and the players in the film are almost equal. What's even more terrifying is that they are not together, but scattered everywhere, gathering and dispersing from time to time, countless fragmentary fragments and short stories, intertwined with the development of the next three-quarters of the plot, it is true that everyone in the film The actors have interpreted their roles almost perfectly, and there are a few short stories that are also very interesting, but together, the overall film is not only without climax and bland, but also has a feeling of overly bloated running account, which makes it difficult for the audience to understand such a story. The film has a hint of interest, and the director's grasp of the work is almost out of control.
This is a group portrait of American heroism. From this work, it is difficult to see the depth between art and life that the film has repeatedly emphasized. On the contrary, George Clooney's work is full of arrogant and narrow-mindedness. Nationalism and American hegemonic thinking, the film has a very strong subjective thinking, Germans are robbers, Russians are thieves, EU countries are ignorant people who are eager to save their powerless hands, and the United States is to maintain world peace. The messenger, and even the star-spangled flag hanging high at the end of the movie is full of teasing of its Russian friendly forces, showing the victory of American thinking. Although "Allied Treasure Team" is not as blatant as many domestic anti-Japanese dramas, but this kind of in addition to A movie that can make the people of America cheer and applaud is hard to resonate, let alone the depth and value of a Hollywood masterpiece.
A classic WWII movie is either as hilariously humorous as "Escape From the Tiger's Mouth," or as thought-provoking, war-reflecting as "The Destruction of an Empire," and the apparently empty and boring "Allied Treasures" is neither. At the same time, this is a rare and regrettable Hollywood World War II work.
