Review of The Great Wall (2016) by Allen W — 25 Feb 2017
I despise the haters who reviewed this movie negatively for unfounded criticism. Did they watch the entire movie? This is NOT a historical film! Who in their right minds watched the preview and thought, "Oh this is based off true history"?!? One look at the beasts that were shown from the trailer you immediately knew this was sci-fi.
The story was fabulous, a potential love story. People ALWAYS complain about a movie being predictable and had this movie been unpredictable those same people would have complained that the movie had a frustrating ending.
Fortunately, this movie had a fantastic ending. It was all action. I enjoyed the positivity of the entire story and the acting was outstanding. Andy Lau was enjoyable to watch and we had Chinese who actually knew how to speak English and act above average in performance.
The story and plot wasn't perfect but was The Predator perfect?!? Was Alien perfect in its logic?!? To hell to those who pan this movie negatively for fantasizing a story based off one of the great wonders of the world.
It's not a 5 star but it's one of the better action movies so far this year!!
