SM City BF Paranaque The Great Wall is a 2016 epic historical fiction action-adventure monster film(no wonder it was distributed by Legendary Pictures) directed by Zhang Yimou and written by Tony Gilroy, Carlo Bernard, Doug Miro, Max Brooks, Edward Zwick, and Marshall Herskovitz. Wikipedia Release date :  February 17, 2017 ( USA ) Director :  Zhang Yimou Honestly, just by looking at this...standee? OK, let's call it a standee, I never imagined the story to be told that "way".  During the first scenes I thought Will and Pero were in Arizona or Utah being chased by Native Americans and I wondered how in the world are they going to China(yes, I was too lazy to research about this and I also wanted just to sit back, relax and enjoy the movie at the Directors Club).  Little did I know that the Khitans were the ones chasing them. Anyways, this review speaks my mind:  MOVIE REVIEW: The Great Wall falls flat on story but towers in visual...

source Atonement  is about Briony Tallis, a young aspiring writer of thirteen who witnessed or thought she had witnessed something atrocious between her older sister, Cecilia, and her long time crush who rejected her when she was about ten or eleven. A series of events that have gone wrong made her demons play inside her head that she saw only what she wanted to see. This in turn ruins the life of Robbie, the young man she adored, but loved her sister dearly. *Young Saoirse(Sear-sha) was very, very effective in her role of Briony  that earned her several nominations and awards. *James McAvoy was a very intriguing Robbie * I don't like the 17-18 year old Briony much. They could've gotten a better actress, but she was good enough. * Vanessa Redgrave's cameo was fantastic! * I like Christopher Hampton's adaptation of Ian McEwan's novel * The music was haunting * Keira's eyes and body language were great...she's really a "classic"...
