Movie Review: The Monuments Men
Rated PG-13
110 minutes
Directed by George Clooney
Before I get into the review, let me give you some context. As the year went on, this movie went from not being on my most anticipated list to being my most anticipated film of 2013 (this year, it's either Interstellar or Foxcatcher). So, of course I was devastated when it got pushed to 2014. I still remained hopeful, and I still was anticipating it. It should also be noted that I am not the biggest fan of art, but that doesn't matter, as I'm not the most enthusiastic about folk music, and Inside Llewyn Davis was #2, and nearly snatched #1, on my top 10. But then the negative reviews started pouring in, and I had to lower my expectations even more. I do have the capacity to be different (I (marginally) liked the pilot for Dads, after all), so I was hoping this was one of those cases. It wasn't.
