The meaning of the film is probably that the Nazis robbed many, many famous paintings, and many, many statues of gods and horses, all of which are very famous and very precious, and should be very, very valuable now, and the Nazis will destroy all these things. And the Soviets have started to grab these things, so the American soldiers have to rush to grab these things before the Nazis and the Soviets.
At the beginning of the film, after Clooney and Damon appeared, they immediately thought of the "Eleven Arhats" series, coupled with the theme of treasure hunting, and suddenly had expectations.
But (plus a few more buts), why aren't any of the artist soldiers who came on the scene remembered?
Many painters are mentioned in the film, but unfortunately for people like me who only know that "Sunflower" is very expensive, I only remember Picasso, Van Gogh and Rembrandt (I often hear in the news that their works are auctioned for high prices. ).
After watching the whole movie, there is basically nothing that makes people feel particularly exciting, and many places have not been discussed. If it was made like "Band of Brothers", the effect may be much better.
The film does not introduce the background of any works, so if you lack understanding of Western painting, sculpture and other art history, you will probably be like me, wondering whether the Madonna statue and the assembled oil painting at the end of the film are really great, anyway Just remember that those are supposed to be great.
