Watching The Monument Men...
Utter shite so far..... 
Well....
It could have been such a good film....
...instead, it qualifies for Barman's three steaming turd rating.... 
Always worth a peek at Wiki imho
Reception
The Monuments Men has received mixed to negative reviews. Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a 33% rating, with an average score of 5.2/10, based on 209 reviews. The site's consensus reads: "Its intentions are noble and its cast is impressive, but neither can compensate for The Monuments Men's stiffly nostalgic tone and curiously slack narrative
That's a flash way of saying
I like reading the Amazon reviews.... with hindsight, I should have checked them first....
Although it is curiously described as a thriller, it had all the makings of an interesting historical drama with a good dose of humour running through it with that cast, but it doesn't hit either side. One minute it felt like it was going in the direction of Saving Private Ryan and Schindlers List, but didnt have the gravitas or drama to pull it off, only to abruptly switch scenes which were more reminiscent of Indiana jones but without the humour or sense of adventure. By the time you revisit the "dramatic" scene you've forgotten where they are, what they're doing and why you should care. The music doesn't fit either. I sympathise with the composer because the film can't decide what it wants to be. Getting your teeth stuck into a single theme for long enough to illicit any sort of appropriate response from the audience would've been impossible for the composer.
I'm not sure three steaming turds is enough.....
