Movie Haiku:Motley crew of misfits join Allied Army & dash around Northern Europe to retrieve stolen art hoarded for a grand Nazi Museum before the Russians can appropriate loot as "reparations." Alas Clooney, casting himself as "fearless leader" turns it into a zany caper. Jan says which on big screen--so you can see what they are after--or not at all. Rich says avoid like plague.
