Although this movie strays abit on facts, it portrays a meaningful aspect of war and the efforts and sacrifices made by good men to preserve human heritage.

The Monuments Men Is a wonderful movie. Though it would probably be classified as a war moive there is little fighting. It's more about perserverence and dedication to an important task. The acting is terrific by everyone in the movie. Will enjoy watching this movie again and again.

Very well written and historically accurate, Monuments Men is a must see movie! A list cast round out one of the best releases of 2013. I would recommend this movie to anyone who is a fan of world war 2 or anyone who is a fan of fine art, both genres are combine beautifully in this film.

If you are or even if you are not a history buff it's a very interesting subject that really has not been discussed much. Great line of actors with which I believe people can relate to as every day folk.

This movie is a great reference to the past. I wouldn't say it's the best historically accurate movie, but it is pretty good. Shows a different side of the war that you don't always hear or learn about.

I didn't think this movie was going to be that great based on the previews but I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed it so much. The blu has a great picture and surround sound as well.

I was intrigued by the historical perspective of this movie. Some of the stolen art is still being discovered, with efforts to get it back to the original owners. The movie seemed disjointed, however, with several story lines going on at once, and no real cohesion. It seemed poorly written. Even the deaths of team members did not evoke much emotion, as the characters were not well-developed. The best scene was Bill Murray sharing a cigarette with a young German soldier, as it was a moment of refuge, a moment of truce for those who don't want to kill or be killed.
This review is from Monuments Men [Includes Digital Copy] [DVD] [2014]

Good movie about a serious subject, true story from WW2, however it is interspersed with comedic comments and moments that make it seem even more real. Very good cast who play off each other very well.

I thought this film was very entertaining. As ensemble cast films go, sometimes it can take away from the story but I rooted for these characters up to the end.
Video quality = outstanding the 4K master is what every film should be.
Audio quality = great
Extras = solid

The movie is enjoyable but is slow. It does make you think about what is valuable and worth risking lives to recover. It also adds suspense when there is a race to recover the most valued art pieces.

This movie flowed well and the actors chosen were well placed. There was a lot of history left out that was covered in the Europa documentary but it did still stand alone as an enjoyable, histo-pic.

Enjoyed this film very much. There was a lot, perhaps too much, to fit into the time alloted. Segments hopped around and were a bit dis-jointed leaving us to guess what went on in the middle.

I went into this movie not expecting a lot. I was greatly surprised. It was fantastic. The actors were great and the storey was great. It was a part of history I didn't know about and I felt they portrayed the history well. It is worth watching and buying.

Art and historical events are superbly presented by a great cast. We are rarely able to watch this movie without having a lot of emotion that people actually did these things.

As art lovers, my wife and I enjoyed hearing the story of the Monument Men. A great historical story that needs to be remembered. I'm very curious about how accurately the story was told. Of course, some creative license is taken, but I hope the basic facts are true.
