It's just that the cast is strong

I originally wanted to go to the cinema to watch "Fireworks in the Day", but due to the schedule, I could only choose this movie, "Allied Treasure Team".
I remember George Clooney's "The Presidential Killing Bureau" in my junior year. At that time, I felt that the movie was quite sharp. His ability as a director also greatly improved in my heart, because he was handsome and middle-aged and masculine. like. So when I saw a lot of big names in this movie, Cate Blanchett, Damon, Bill Murray and other big names, I was excited for a while, well, just watch this.
But from the very beginning, the film's narrative was tepid, and I didn't have much ripples in my heart as a viewer as the director clearly intended to be the climax of the film, including the sacrifice of the male protagonist of "Downton Abbey" and let - Dujardin's sacrifices seem to lack power. The whole film contains a certain level of jokes, a certain degree of rationality and righteousness. The narration is a period of time to find the treasure for a period of time. When mixed up, it seems very plain. There is no obvious thought-provoking place. Although it shows the beautiful human nature of the Treasure Team, it is somewhat false. It is not like a movie, but a political propaganda film. . It feels that such a large group of good actors can come together to make a movie, entirely because of Clooney's personal influence, but this movie really can't be called his level, and it is a failed work.
Hopefully Clooney's next movie will be great.

    The first time I wanted to fall asleep in the cinema, the first time I ran out halfway thinking that any movie in any other hall would be better than this one

The Monuments Men quotes

  • Claire Simone: [after listening to Granger attempt to communicate very badly in French] Would you stop speaking French? Or whatever language you are speaking?

    James Granger: Well, if it weren't for us, you'd... you'd be speaking German.

    Claire Simone: No. If it was not for you, I might be dead. But I would still be speaking French.

    James Granger: [Glances away] OK.
