"Allied Treasure Team" - the anti-war flag of the diamond king and fifth is flying high

I have to admit that my expectations for this film were wrong, Clooney wasn't filming the treasure hunt, he evaded the point and talked about "meaning". For such a cruel thing as war, it seems a bit pretentious to talk about literature, art and inheritance. So, is it meaningful to spend manpower, material resources, and even life for this? This handsome old man fully showed his anti-war sentiment, and he hated and criticized war from the perspective of the value of art to human beings.
The director's perspective on things and his core ideas remind me of his "The Descendants" starring in a very humanistic way, focusing on things that don't actually exist, but are actually very important, such as spirit, symbols, etc. At this level of human beings, I try to explore some concepts.
The shortcomings of this piece are also obvious. The structure is loose and the narrative is trivial. Like a plate of scattered pearls, it emits dots of light. The multi-linear development does not bring the amount of information and sense of urgency, but many people are confused.
What's more interesting about this piece is that Clooney's logo is obvious, not only full of American humor, but also a relaxed and casual way to implement it, just like the free and uninhibited figure left by the fifth diamond king to the world.

    Good story, but the filming is average, and it might feel more average if you don't watch it in a movie theater. They are all my favorite actors. In addition to Clooney and Blanchett, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there are also Jean Dujardin (the Artist actor), Bill Murray and two other old actors who are very hilarious. It's a pity that the introduction of the characters is too fast, some places in the middle are too slow, and some actors perform exaggerated (Matt Damon).

    Poor editing makes the entire story structure a horizontal, disjointed narrative. The camera, the acting is lackluster. #¥Tall, stalwart and just, handsome and interesting American star, why don't you use your hands to tear Nazis?

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.

  • Walter Garfield: The army may not care about art, but they sure as shit care about gold.
