THE MONUMENTS MEN - Film Review


Rating: ****


Starring: George Clooney, Matt Damon, Bill Murray, Bob Balaban, Kate Blanchett 

An action thriller about the greatest treasure hunt in history, based on the true story of World War II.

The Allied forces have over powered the Nazis and are making good progress driving back the Axis powers in Italy.

The Monuments Men is an action-thriller focusing on an unlikely World War II platoon, tasked by FDR with going into Germany to rescue artistic masterpieces from Nazi thieves and returning them to their rightful owners.

Frank Stokes (George Clooney) is directed to assemble an Army unit nicknamed the “Monuments Men” comprising museum directors, curators and art historians. Victory will have little meaning if the art treasures of Western civilization are lost in the fighting, either as collateral damage in combat or looted.
