Customer Ratings & Reviews

My husband purchased this movie. I originally had no intentions on watching it. I started watching an action scene about halfway through and it was pretty decent.

Matt D. is boring and at times it seems he's struggling to speak, the story is lacking and seems like one of those ps4 games where you just keep shooting monsters.

I really liked this film, the costumes were amazing. The special features stacked to the roof!Ok when I watch films I do so on a 180" movie theater screen with full 7.1 surround sound and the Buttkicker transducer system. This is not to Boast but to give an idea of the clarity that I rate both 4k and 1080p films. 1st off regardless if you are huge into 4k or still collect Blu-ray; I will add that with today's (Oppo) upscaling technology along with upscaling technology on theater projectors that the difference between Blu-ray & 4k is minimal. I will say that going over 180" that you will likely see a difference and recommend 4k for 150"+ screens. I found the film To be fun, enjoyable and the perfect film to drop in my popcorn film section!

This movie was kinda disappointing but was entertaining. The 4K version brought out nice clarity and definition but was not the best I've seen.

Pay no attention to the cheesy dialog and cardboard characters, and just enjoy this colorful and fantastical movie. Where else will you find an army in hot air balloons and bungie-jumping warriors with lances that double as boomerangs? The stunning richness and clarity of the picture makes you glad that you paid up for your 4K TV. The aggressive Atmos soundtrack offers incredible directional depth, which is perfect for this projectile-dominated movie. So, make some popcorn and enjoy!

...and enjoyed this movie! Matt Damon is his usual awesome self. The film is fast-paced, engaging, and suspenseful. It kept me glued to the screen, anxious to see what would happen next. I also disagree that Matt Damon portrayed "a white guy saving the Chinese". In all fairness, he merely assisted the Chinese in saving themselves. After reading lackluster reviews about this film, I decided to rent it from Redbox. After viewing it, however, I purchased my own copy. It's well worth the $20 purchase price.

It is rare that I can NOT remember the end of a movie. This is one of those rare cases. I have watched this one over five times and I still cannot remember the ending. Perhaps it is because of the acrobatics. But more so because of the mechanics on display through out this video. During this time period the engineering that would have been required too make the wooden gears for the elevator or diving platforms was not only possible but very well designed and defined. I half expected the mechanics to be those from a different time. They were not. Everything worked well. This is a feast for your eyes and your imagination, Popcorn, Soda and maybe a friend to watch it with would be nice.

This was an unexpected pleasure to view this selection I purchased. It had some of the best scenery of China and the Great Wall that is still a standing wonder of the world. The action in this movie was almost constant, and the actress and actors were well selected. As each one of them performed at their best. Especially noted: Jing Tian - Commander Lin, and Matt Damon - William. The two were well matched for their roles in this "Somewhat Epic," for the time period portrayed. It was one of the best movies I have purchased.

This film was a little out there to be honest but it did keep my attention. It was worth watching but not the best movie out there.

I look forward to seeing tjis one since i havent opened it yet. I bought it from the store due to the great sale price they had on it.

I bought this based on a recommendation to test my new Atmos speakers...I was told the Atmos effects were excellent when the monsters attack the Wall. They were right, but I hardly noticed as I was enjoying the storyline so much. This is not a Historical Drama, or even a well-planned monster/alien/horror movie. It is a good balance of action, amazingly seamless filming & effects, great score, and good acting. I wasn't expecting much, but I was very pleasantly surprised!

Entertaining, some good action, though I thought the movie lacked some depth. Thought it could have been better but it was enjoyable.

I hadn't read a review of this movie before buying it but had heard it had some great applications of HDR. I overall don't think CGIs show off HDR as much as real people and scenery. I thought that this movie would be more about the real history of the Great Wall and would have more natural images. Aside from that, the movie is entertaining and gave my surround system a workout. The story-line held my interest as well even if it wasn't what I expected.

I over heard during conversation at work that the Great Wall was a good movie. I was expecting a movie kinda like 300 or braveheart type drama story. Impulse buy turned into a roller coaster with upside down flips and no track. At the end of the flick. My exact comments were. "Well that was weird". I'd have to say though the special effects were pretty decent. But not quite convincing. The audio was spectacular with atmos really shining during tunnel scene.

I wasn't expecting much from this unheralded Matt Damon movie but this was pretty entertaining and special effects were pretty cool.

I thought this movie was really terrific fun, with amazing graphic special effects. I was a little hesitant at first to purchase the 4K Blu-ray because of some of the poor reviews, but after researching and seeing that the film's digital intermediate was 4K (making it a true 4K release), I went ahead and purchased it. I was glad I ignored the 'film' critics comments about character development, story line, yadda, yadda. I really enjoyed this action movie for its excellent, colorful costumes, sometimes eye-popping detail, action, and great special effects. Watch it in 4K if you can. It'll be a treat and a good time.

What a rush! This film caught me by surprise. I expected Warriors fighting, blood, gore, majestic scenery and perhaps a passionate interlude for the Warrior and some Chines beauty. Alas, this film was much, much more! Yes, there were Warriors fighting, there was much blood and gore, but some of it was green! Yeah! Green Ancient Aliens were afoot every 60 years! THATS why the Chinese Emperors spent so much blood and treasure building their monolithic Walls. Good ACTION film, well done, with battles, massive explosions, intrigue, unrequited love and lots of great dialog. BUY it!! So far, I've watched it three times

I think this movie had too high expectations when it was released. I actually enjoyed it and you probably will too if you aren't going into it expecting a Oscar winning movie. It reminds me more of the Mummy (not the latest one) as more of a fun adventure. Otherwise the movie shines in 4k with great detail and color reproduction. Audio tracks are wonderful with lots of loud booms and surround moments to make you smile.

This was a movie that could have been so much more. Everyone in this movie embraces their roles with the exception of Matt Damon. His performance left me with the feeling he did this role as a favor or an obligation to something he didn't want to do. Beyond that the movie had fantastic effects and great acting. I'm not sure why it didn't have a 3d bluray release because some of the effects were obviously meant for 3d.

When a mercenary warrior (Matt Damon) is imprisoned within the Great Wall, he discovers the mystery behind one of the greatest wonders of the world. As wave after wave of marauding beasts besiege the massive structure, his quest for fortune turns into a journey toward heroism as he joins a huge army of elite warriors to confront the unimaginable and seemingly unstoppable force. This film is filled with lot of action.
