Highly recommend everybody avoid this tedious and annoying movie.

Rating: 1/10 (21 May 2014)

Warning: this movie is very poorly written, very poorly directed and very poorly edited. It's feeble attempt at mixing comedy with what was a truly tragic situation is done in an ineffective way rendering it inappropriate. Whereas humor can be used effectively to make specific poignant points relating to the tragedy of war, i.e.: "Good Morning Vietnam", the attempt made in "Monuments Men" was not effective and was technically flawed. I highly recommend that everybody avoid this tedious and annoying movie. I see that George Clooney co-wrote and directed this farce. He should stick with acting in the future and leave the writing and directing to those who know how. The dialog was contrived. The flow of action was erratic. The character development was absent. The plot development was sporadic. It is a true shame that a worthy story such as this was so poorly put together by Mr. Clooney and his team. This movie was not revisionist history, it was merely poorly told history, filled with irrelevant scenes adrift in big name actor's egos.
