I really like this movie. It's based on a true story about a special allied unit that tracked down paintings and other items that the Nazis stole from the countries they occupied in WW2, especially from Jewish people. I think George Clooney and the rest of the cast did a great job and I recommend that anyone interested in WW2 history, and basically anyone else, to see this movie.

I've not seen The Monuments Men movie, but want to mention that a superb 2006 documentary (116 minutes), that's about the same topic, is The Rape of Europa. I have the DVD of it, and it really is excellent and very interesting.
Here's its TMDb Overview page, so you'll know what, precisely, I'm referring to:
