A short review with a little more words

After watching this, I'm depressed again...

The plot that was originally super bland, had no climax, and shouldn't be mind-blowing, was messed up by me. I am ignorant, confused by all kinds of place names, I just think they are moving around in Western Europe...

This film directed by Uncle George has so many elements that can make flowers, but it flows from beginning to end like white water. , even though there are so many big casts, I feel that they will flow down the water together. Although it's a real event, it's a movie after all~ Everyone's skin is itchy. I can't really feel the tension of war, the excitement of winning treasures, the excitement of fighting the enemy, the ingenious strategy, the touching historical stories, and the beauty and preciousness of artworks. Huhu rumbling on THE END.

However, taking the safety of artworks in the war as the main body, restoring this true historical story, and copying those artworks with so much effort, is still very great! ~

The Monuments Men quotes

  • Frank Stokes: You can wipe out an entire generation, you can burn their homes to the ground and somehow they'll still find their way back. But if you destroy their history, you destroy their achievements and it's as if they never existed. That's what Hitler wants and that's exactly what we are fighting for.

  • James Granger: Stop, stop. Stop. I seem to have stepped on a land mine... of some sort.

    Frank Stokes: Why d'you do something like that?

    James Granger: It was a slow day.

    Frank Stokes: Well, I wouldn't move.

    James Granger: I'd like to at some point.
