The plot is very scattered. A treasure hunting team is divided into several groups and dispatched separately. The timeline and location make me a little messy. Originally there were less than ten people, and they ran around in groups of two. Some details may be changed because they don’t understand well. For example, why did they go to XX (sorry forgot where it was) because there was news that the German army had shipped all the artworks there, but where did the news come from? And it's so conclusive? And what's the matter with that museum recorder's flirting with one of the protagonists? Is it true that the American man is righteous in his heart? When Frank interrogated the German officer Starr, what he said was completely insensible, like he was delaying time and messing up...
Finally, the Russian army was coming to occupy Altaucer, and the squad found the stolen rice in the mine. "The Virgin Mary and the Little Boy" by Cheangelo. The camera is switching back and forth between the Russian army driving a pickup truck and passing a sign pointing to "Altause" and four people trying to push the minecart toward the light. It is good to create a tense atmosphere. The problem is that they are still one step ahead of the Russian army in the end. , And also hung the Stars and Stripes at the entrance of the mine. It feels like watching a balloon rise into the sky, looking forward to the fireworks or explosion at the end, it turns out like a soap bubble "bomb" and then disappears, my whole heart is empty.
As an atypical war movie, "MM" still has elements of war. One scene was a white Christmas in that camp, and everyone received gifts and letters from their hometown. One of the teams in the squad, Walter and Preston unpack the package in the tent. Walter received a piece of vinyl, saying it was a song recorded by his daughter's granddaughter, so he must listen to it when he finds time. After he took a shower in the shower room, the entire camp's radio suddenly became his daughter's song, which was played by Preston. The two of them quarreled from the beginning, and then they disliked each other when they were divided into groups, but they still cared about each other silently [This is really a cold CP] The squad just lost an old buddy Donald, who protected the "Virgin Mary and Little The boy" was shot dead by the Germans in the church. In the snowy night, the remaining people helped treat the wounded, and suddenly heard a melodious and warm female voice. I don't know what they think, I only know that watching Walter sit next to the dripping faucet in a bathrobe with a peaceful face, I smiled and burst into tears here.
On the whole, the general story is okay. The problem is that this monotonous treasure hunt story is not captured vividly, and there are only scattered shots in the end. Give one star to the artworks preserved from World War II and the people who protect them.
