Northwest Military's Review

Richard Roeper on February 17th, 2017

Cast as the Great White Hope alongside several popular Chinese actors, Matt Damon plays a mercenary enlisted to help fight an invasion of paranormal monsters. A fantasy with some pretty cool visual effects but scads of unintentionally hilarious dialogue, The Great Wall is so wonderfully bad, I could see some coming for the action and staying for the camp laughs. It's a beautiful bomb. - One and a half stars
