It's not even clear what continent does the story take place. If it's ex-United States, what is she (ML) doing there in the first place?
I'm also sick of Mona Lisa being presented as the most valuable object on the planet. The main shocker in every disaster/fail future movie is Mona Lisa being burnt/stolen/drown. See 2012 and of course, Equilibrium. Same goes for Beethoven. Seems like people don't really have their own opinion and are being programmed into thinking DaVinci and Ludwig Van are untouchables and are the definition of art.

The Mona Lisa is not there because of its' value but because it is considered the most famous and recognizable painting in the world.
What we have here is failure to communicate!share
For such an ambitious film it's definetely a non-brainer. Even idiots know Mona Lisa. They could choose something else. Also, the copy is too small and the close-up shows it's a poor imitation. So poor, in fact, that shadows are all wrong. Is it actually the puzzle they bought in Tesco?

They just chose something the audience would know. I thought the copy was about the right size (30 x 21 in.)

I don't really remember the size of the frame, so you might be right if I mistook the actual size with the picture+frame. I need to investigate this stuff on some movie goofs site.

Bingo. The point isn't "this is the best work of art ever made!" They need something a wide. range of people will identify as famous and priceless art. Something that even someone without a high school education could identify - keeping it identifiable to the widest possible audience.
shareyeah, they needed something also all those people that take prozium everyday understand. Ah Mona Lisa! - so it must be art they are burning - otherwise most people wouldn't have understood the movie: why are they burning these strange colorful rectangles?
shareAbout the Mona Lisa... Why even check its authenticity if they were going to burn it anyway? It's not like the penalty would differ, execution is execution. And if it was an immitation... it would still be burned!
We've met before, haven't we?
Would they burn it if it was a jig-saw puzzle copy? LMAO

I'm pretty sure that wa in there to make clear there is no holding back on what piece of art what so ever. Contraband is contraband, copy or the real thing. Mona Lisa is regarded priceless and a supreme piece of art and yet still is burnt.

20. If a group of human beings is about to be gunned down in cold blood you should not risk being exposed to your enemies to save them, despite being able to kill roomfuls of machine gun wielding (bikers?)with the greatest of ease and using only pistols. But if a puppy is threatened, risks be damned!
