If You Think You Won't Like It - Then You Won't.

Rating: 1/10 (3 May 2014)

I had mixed feelings about watching 'The Monument's Men". To be honest - My initial feelings to the trailer were that I wouldn't like the movie. I was right...
I'm not a George Clooney fan... His acting is something similar to plaster drying. So to read that George had such huge influence in this movie had me concerned. I was expecting bland and it delivered just that.
The cast also had me worried. Whilst some of the names were great in their own genre. Putting them together in a wartime drama also had me worried that the chemistry just wouldn't be right. It wasn't. Bill Murray seemed handicapped and Matt Damon equally so. Neither has the scripting or direction to shine.
Add to all this a story twisted to be a pro USA propaganda piece about how they once again saved our civilization from destruction and you have this movie.
It's not pretty watching actors struggle through a movie... It's even more difficult when the story could have been so much better. Knowing what could have been...
Don't bother watching The Monument Men. It's 118 minutes of your life you would have better spent sleeping. Or washing your car or doing the weekly grocery shopping.
