The Monument Men

Rating: 8/10 (31 May 2014)

I personally thought this movie was quite excellent even though it did lack some deep character depth. I was extremely impressed with the story and the emotion you felt throughout it. Especially the 'have yourself a merry little Christmas scene, just tear your heart out. I was very happy with the cast, I felt like they all had a role and they weren't there typical selves. Bill Murray was the main one I was worried about, I thought he would just turn out to be the comic relief and over play it but I thought he did very well. The tempo the movie was very strange to me, at first it was moving too fast and at other times I felt it was too slow, which threw me off for a bit. I think the main reason I gave it an 8 was because it was based on a true story and I thought they portrayed it in a very good way. Made me want to learn more about it.
