See George Clooney’s ‘The Monuments Men’ – An all-star cast leads the charge in this World War II drama.

An all-star cast leads the charge in this World War II drama. The Monuments Men tells the story of a rag-tag team tasked to rescue art from Nazi thieves and return the pieces to their owners. The film is directed, co-written by and stars George Clooney, whose last time behind the camera was in 2011 on the underrated The Ides of March. In this weekend’s release, Matt Damon, Bill Murray, John Goodman, Hugh Bonneville and Cate Blanchett fill out the rest of the cast. Early reviews are applauding the fresh territory of the plot and story. As with the Oceans Eleven series, the chemistry between the big names is top-notch, and The Monuments Men could easily knock Ride Along from the top of the box office. However, kids and parents going to see The LEGO Movie might have something to say about that. Rated PG-13. View the trailer below.
