Based on the true story of the greatest treasure hunt in history, The Monuments Men is an action drama focusing on seven over-the-hill, out-of-shape museum directors, artists, architects, curators, and art historians who went to the front lines of WWII to rescue the world’s artistic masterpieces from Nazi thieves and return them to their rightful owners. With the art hidden behind enemy lines, how could these guys hope to succeed?
Editor's Verdict
"The Monuments Men is not a Christmas movie. While it takes place during World War II, which includes the Christmas season, the movie's plot and themes are not primarily focused on or driven by Christmas. The Christmas setting is incidental and does not meaningfully shape the story or character arcs."
