In Yimou Zhang (House of Flying Daggers) latest directorial venture we find Mat Damon and chum on the Chinese border looking for 'black powder' and, instead finding a siege involving the Chinese army, monsters and of course the Great Wall of China..
Firstly this film looked pretty good. The colours of each division of the Chinese Army was clever and well done. And of course the CGi was very good as in most blockbusters these days. The plot itself was fairly mundane and went in the direction you expected.. no shocks or twists..
It was throwaway fluff... but enjoyable, throwaway fluff.
