They were trying to save the world from aliens, and that was the main point. However, I thought that the film did a good job of keeping the focus where it should have been. The ending was a little bittersweet as well. While there were some hints that Lin and William were developing feelings for each other, they never really acted on those feelings. Though, to be honest, the whole fight scene on the Wall was pretty amazing. This led to some of the coolest parts of the first big fight scene. Lin is a character who grows and changes throughout the film. She commands a squad of female warriors, who dive off of the wall with spears to attack their enemy. She is the chosen successor of the General. He has the right amount of gravity to make him an effective leader, while still being human.Ĭommander Lin Mae is another main character. He and his army are defending China from these monsters. However, the stakes are even higher than that.
He is a strong military leader who is charged with an almost impossible task. While he is a character who is not going to sacrifice his life for the greater good, Tovar is still, strangely, deeply likable. Tovar also has had practice not trusting anyone around him.
He is a mercenary who is used to being taken advantage of. Matt Damon is able to play him in such a way that his inner conflict shows in his eyes, as well as his wonder and amazement at what he sees. As the story goes on, he grows into more of a hero. Fighting only for himself, he suddenly finds himself in a situation where trust is not only valuable but necessary. William is a mercenary who trusts no one. Meanwhile, the taotie are growing clever, forcing William and the Commanders to work together to help protect the world. William finds himself drawn to the idea of fighting for something more than money. Tovar wants to find the black powder and get out of China. All that stands in their way is the Wall and the men and women who defend it. These are a race of aliens who are seeking to consume China, and then the world. Here, they learn that the beast is called a taotie. After killing a mysterious beast that eats the rest of their team, they find themselves at the Great Wall. They have teamed up to trade for a legendary substance, black powder. The story of The Great Wall follows the adventures of mercenaries William (Matt Damon) and Tovar (Pedro Pascal). The Great Wall itself, however, was a digital creation. The movie was filmed mostly in China, with some parts being filmed in New Zealand. In 2016, director Yimou Zhang, the director of films such as House of Flying Daggers and Hero, worked with a team to bring the historical fantasy action/adventure drama The Great Wall to life. There are towers, walkways, and it is widely agreed to be a very impressive structure to behold. It is something that stretches out over five thousand miles of China. The Great Wall of China is one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
