Uninspired

Rating: 2/10 (25 October 2014)

Though the historical fact, this « Monuments Men » group, is interesting and certainly deserved to be tackled, what Clooney made of it is completely flat and bland. The movie boils down to a succession of totally disjointed, anecdotal short scenes, where protagonists are under developed and coherence nowhere to be found, indeed most of the story lines don't fit together at all and flow in disorderly fashion. The scenario therefore turns out to be completely uninteresting and it's with great relief that you finally get through this unspired Clooney movie who unparently relied too much on his cast of friends and forgot what actually matters : a good script.
