3 stars out of 4 -- THE GREAT WALL is unlike any American blockbuster you've seen, a conservative movie with action set pieces that are actually inventive and thrilling enough to be worthwhile.

If you're looking for mindless action and ridiculously cheesy storylines that you can laugh at, then The Great Wall will fill that void.

Smash Cut Reviews
[T]he director’s artistic touch is on display in his long panoramic sweeps and artful use of colour. Simultaneously futuristic and historic, the visual spectacle carries the film...

Rating: 2.5/5 --
The Great Wall had all the elements to be a terrific film - good cast, great pictures, and a hefty budget. Sadly... it isn't so great.

Zhang's moments of visual splendor-a battalion of hot-air balloonists, the queen-monster and her royal guard of fan-frilled monstrosities-are weighed down by a script and performances almost dutiful in their dullness.

[I]t is consistently engaging as an almost abstract exercise in visual sumptuousness. Zhang spends almost as much time on the Nameless Order’s elaborate preparations for battle as he does on the battles themselves, and stages them with his usual flair for synchronized movements and patterns.

Product Description:
In this action-fantasy epic set in 11th century China, two mercenaries from the West (Matt Damon and Pedro Pascal) are captured by a military organization that are headquartered in a fortress on the Great Wall. In time, the duo get caught up in a battle between the Chinese warriors and a supernatural menace that the Great Wall was built to repel. Jing Tian, Andy Lau, Zhang Hanyu, Willem Dafoe, and Eddie Peng co-star. Directed by Zhang Yimou (HERO, HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS), this collaboration with Hollywood is the most expensive Chinese film to date.
