    En un mundo medieval con una gran historia, aventura y fantasía, llega una película llamada LA GRAN MURALLA, donde no solamente veremos a un gran batallón de ejército chino para defender una gran muralla, sino que también veremos a un grupo de soldados que sin querer deberán defenderla a toda costa por unas extrañas criaturas que la atacaran para invadir el imperio de los chinos.

    Sabemos bien que la gran muralla china es la más grande y poderosa del mundo, así que hace falta algo más que unos cuantos hombres a caballo, espadas, arcos y escudos para poder derribar esta muralla, y ese es el misterio que encontraremos en esta película.

    Unas extrañas criaturas intentarán derribarla, pero los protectores de la gran muralla impedirán que eso suceda sorprendiéndonos con tan buenas maniobras defensivas.

    In a medieval world with a great history, adventure and fantasy, comes a movie called THE GREAT WALL, where we will not only see a large battalion of Chinese army to defend a great wall, but we will also see a group of soldiers who unwittingly must defend it at all costs by some strange creatures that attack it to invade the empire of the Chinese.

    We know well that the great Chinese wall is the largest and most powerful in the world, so it takes more than a few men on horseback, swords, bows and shields to bring down this wall, and that is the mystery that we will find in this film.
    Some strange creatures will try to bring it down, but the protectors of the great wall will prevent that from happening by surprising us with such good defensive maneuvers.

    PUNTOS DE VISTA

    Una de las cosas que más ha logrado captar mi atención en los trailers de esta película, son las fantásticas armaduras y las artes marciales que ellos poseen para poder defenderse ante una guerra.

    Conocí esta película buscando trailers de series y películas medievales, aunque no solamente sus armaduras y peleas capto mi atención, sino también a los peligros por las que se enfrentaran y las maniobras defensivas de estos en su muralla.

    Como siempre, los chinos y coreanos nos sorprenden con tan fantásticas películas por sus excelentes interpretaciones y actuaciones, los guerreros chinos estan clasificados por su armadura, los de traje negro son lanceros con escudos, los morados son arqueros, los azules son los que más maniobras hacen, por lo demás son ayudantes y luchadores comunes.

    VIEWPOINTS

    One of the things that has captured my attention the most in the trailers of this movie, are the fantastic armors and martial arts that they have to defend themselves in a war.

    I found this movie by looking for trailers of medieval series and movies, but not only their armors and fights caught my attention, but also the dangers they will face and their defensive maneuvers in their wall.
    As always, the Chinese and Koreans surprise us with such fantastic movies for their excellent interpretations and performances, the Chinese warriors are classified by their armor, the ones in black suits are Spearman with shields, the purple ones are archers, the blue ones are the ones that do the most maneuvers, the rest are common helpers and fighters.

    MOMENTOS ÉPICOS

    Los momentos más épicos que encontraremos en esta película es cuando todos se preparan para la guerra, todos los soldados tienen que moverse y trabajar a la perfección, ya que ellos tienen una ley que si cometen un solo error perderán la vida.

    No es fácil hacer las cosas a la perfección, pero estos chicos y coreanos tienen una disciplina bastante estricta, no solo en la vida real, sino también en películas, en todo momento hagan lo que hagan, nos demuestra lo estrictos que son.

    Pero en una guerra todo es válido y encontraremos momentos en la que estos valerosos guerreros serán sorprendidos por la inteligencia de estas misteriosas criaturas.

    Honestamente, es la primera película del estilo medieval que veo donde los enemigos son este tipo de criaturas, es una mezcla que les salió muy buena, he interesante.

    EPIC MOMENTS

    The most epic moments we will find in this movie is when everyone is preparing for war, all the soldiers have to move and work perfectly, as they have a law that if they make a single mistake they will lose their lives.
    It is not easy to do things perfectly, but these guys and Koreans have a pretty strict discipline, not only in real life, but also in movies, at all times whatever they do, it shows us how strict they are.

    But in a war, everything is valid, and we will find moments where these brave warriors will be surprised by the intelligence of these mysterious creatures.

    Honestly, this is the first medieval style movie I've seen where the enemies are this kind of creatures, it's a mix that came out very good, and interesting.

    OPINIÓN PERSONAL

    Esta película me ha parecido bastante buena, yo le daría 10 de 10, como amante de las películas de este género medieval y fantasía era imposible que no me gustara en algo, más aún cuando se trata de estos chinos y coreanos quienes nos presentan una excelente interpretación.

    Aunque si revisamos la página donde verifico la puntualidad y la valoración de los críticos más la audiencia en general, esta película no ha tenido una buena apreciación, como en este caso Sensacine, ha tenido una valoración de 3 estrellas de 5, sin embargo, considero que si eres fanático de lo medieval y fantasía, le des una oportunidad sin prestarle atención a la valoración que otras páginas te dan por las películas.

    Te dejaré el tráiler que hizo que esta película captara mi atención, sin duda alguna si te gusta este tipo de películas te encantara.

    PERSONAL OPINION

    I found this movie quite good, I would give it 10 out of 10, as a lover of movies of this medieval and fantasy genre it was impossible for me not to like it in something, even more when it comes to these Chinese and Koreans who present us with an excellent performance.

    Although if we check the page where I verify the punctuality and the valuation of the critics plus the audience in general, this movie has not had a good appreciation, as in this case Sensacine, it has had a valuation of 3 stars out of 5, however, I consider that if you are a fan of medieval and fantasy, give it a chance without paying attention to the valuation that other pages give you for the movies.

    I will leave you the trailer that made this movie catch my attention, no doubt if you like this kind of movies you will love it.

  2. The somewhat Great Wall of China@trumpman1380d

    Family went to bed early today night so I figured to watch a movie before rubbing one off on pornhub.

    Netflix recommended me a fantasy movie called The Great Wall starring Matt Damon. It's not based on the one Trump wanted to make to keep Mexicans out, but instead, The Great Wall of China that as we all know was made to keep ugly scary aliens out:

    In ancient China, a group of European mercenaries encounters a secret army that maintains and defends the Great Wall of China against a horde of monstrous creatures. source

    Overall I must admit I found the movie quite enjoyable despite the relatively dump yet unique and interesting plot.

    The cinematography and visuals were pretty good although I found the monster's cgi a bit...outdated? The movie was released in 2016 yet at times it felt like late 90s/early 20s. I won't complained much though, combined with the imo excellent camera work the movie did a good work to immersinf me in its world.

    The battle scenes were also unique, epic and more than generous enough in quantity.

    When it comes to acting I guess Matt Damon does a decent job along with the rest, mostly Chinese, peeps.

    All in all, a beautifully told, fast paced story with some unforgettable battle scenes. Yes, it has its flaws but it's more than a decent watch.

    Easily a 7/10 from me. If you are into monsters and shit than give it a watch when you have some free time. I think you won't regret it!

    Hola mi gente linda de Movies & TV Shows, esta vez ocurrió como siempre me suele pasar, que luego de disfrutar de una buena serie o película, me tengo que topar con algo que no esta completamente a la altura de lo anterior, aunque realmente tengo una opinión bastante divida con esta película, porque en cierta parte me gusto y por otra no tanto, pero vamos hablar un poco sobre ella.
    Hello my beautiful people from Movies & TV Shows, this time it happened as it always happens to me, that after enjoying a good series or movie, I have to run into something that is not completely up to the above, although I really have a fairly divided opinion with this film, because in a certain part I liked it and in another not so much, but we are going to talk a little about it.

    Se trata de LA GRAN MURALLA, una película que la encuentras en Netflix y que la vi varios días en el catalogo pero no me llamo la atención hasta que vi el trailer, me apresure a verla cuando vi la presentación de un grupo de guerreras con un uniforme metálico en color azul rey espectacular tocando unos enormes tambores, (aunque no se, si ese sea su verdadero nombre) para mi fue suficiente para darle play.
    It's about THE GREAT WALL, a movie that you can find on Netflix and that I saw several days in the catalog but it didn't catch my attention until I saw the trailer, I rushed to see it when I saw the presentation of a group of warriors with a Spectacular royal blue metallic uniform playing huge drums, (although I don't know if that's his real name) for me it was enough to give him play.

    ¿De qué trata la película?

    What is the movie about?


    Cuenta la historia de ladrones mercenarios que van hacia hacia China en busca de pólvora, pero en el camino hacia lograr su objetivo se topan con un ejercito de héroes milenarios que se encuentra defendiendo a su país de monstruos salvajes. La sinopsis es una clara muestra de que se trata de una película de ciencia y ficción y por alguna extraña razón la continúe viendo.
    It tells the story of mercenary thieves who go to China in search of gunpowder, but on the way to achieve their goal they run into an army of ancient heroes who are defending their country from wild monsters. The synopsis is a clear sign that it is a science and fiction movie and for some strange reason I continued to watch it.

    Digo extraña porque últimamente cuesta mucho que me guste una película donde parte de la trama tenga que ver con monstruos, ya que no todo el mundo sabe como hacer una buena película de este género, siento que para lograr algo mejor que depredador o avatar hay que ser un genio de los efectos especiales, y hay muchas películas realmente decepcionante en cuanto a temas de monstruos, así que no estaba muy convencida, pero me arriesgue.
    I say strange because lately it's hard for me to like a movie where part of the plot has to do with monsters, since not everyone knows how to make a good movie of this genre, I feel that to achieve something better than predator or avatar you have to being a special effects genius, and there are a lot of really disappointing monster movies out there, so I wasn't too convinced, but I took a chance.

    (Alerta Spoiler) Todo comienza con los mercenarios que vienen de Europa en grupo para conseguir pólvora, pero en el camino sucede algo extraño y dos de sus amigos pierden la vida por una criatura que no lograron ver en medio del desierto en plena noche, y solo los dos que sobrevivieron agarran camino hacia China, mientras escapan de un grupo de hombres que buscan acabar con ellos, hasta que llegan a la famosa Gran Muralla y se rinden ante el ejercicito para poder escapar de quienes lo perseguían, hasta aquí todo iba bien.
    (Spoiler Alert) It all begins with the mercenaries who come from Europe in a group to get gunpowder, but something strange happens along the way and two of their friends lose their lives because of a creature they couldn't see in the middle of the desert in the middle of the night, and only the two who survived make their way to China, while escaping from a group of men who seek to kill them, until they reach the famous Great Wall and surrender to the army to escape those who persecuted him, until here everything went well .

    Evidentemente por ser extranjeros mercenarios son apresados por el ejercito Chino, mientras son llevados a la Gran Muralla observan como un enorme ejercito compuesto de hombres y mujeres se forman a lo largo de toda la Gran Muralla con grandes armas, como si estuvieran esperando algo, realmente quedaron sorprendidos al ver a un ejercito tan organizado y esplendoroso por los peculiares colores brillantes que tenian sus uniformes, azul, rojo, amarillo, morado y plateado, cuando de pronto un ejercito misterioso se acerca desde la parte baja de la montaña.
    Evidently because they are foreign mercenaries they are captured by the Chinese army, while they are taken to the Great Wall they observe how a huge army made up of men and women form along the entire Great Wall with large weapons, as if they were waiting for something, really They were surprised to see an army so organized and splendid by the peculiar bright colors that their uniforms had, blue, red, yellow, purple and silver, when suddenly a mysterious army approaches from the bottom of the mountain.

    Era una gran ejercito de monstruos llamados Tao Tei muy parecidos a un dinosaurio pero más evolucionado, este grupo de monstruos seguían las ordenes de su Reina, y su misión era atacar a toda China y conseguir comida para así poder alimentar a su Reina y que está pudiera reproducirse, la aparición de estos monstruos surge de una leyenda China.
    It was a great army of monsters called Tao Tei, very similar to a dinosaur but more evolved, this group of monsters followed the orders of their Queen, and their mission was to attack all of China and get food in order to feed their Queen and that is could reproduce, the appearance of these monsters arises from a Chinese legend.

    Mi opinión

    My opinión


    Honestamente puedo decir que no es la mejor película del mundo, tiene muchos fallos como que los personajes no tienen ningún desarrollo, tenemos solo tres personajes que no son Chinos, como personaje principal esta Matt Damon interpretando a William Garin, su compañero Pedro Pascal interpretando a Pedro Tovar y Willem Dafoe interpretando a Sir Ballard, y como personajes chinos que puedo destacar tenemos a Jing Tian como la comandante Lin Mae, incluso se utilizan varios idiomas, el ingles, el chino y el español.
    I can honestly say that it is not the best movie in the world, it has many flaws such as the fact that the characters do not have any development, we only have three characters that are not Chinese, as the main character is Matt Damon playing William Garin, his partner Pedro Pascal playing Pedro Tovar and Willem Dafoe playing Sir Ballard, and as Chinese characters that I can highlight we have Jing Tian as Commander Lin Mae, even several languages ​​are used, English, Chinese and Spanish.

    Si hablamos de vestuario y ambientación la película es en mi opinión extraordinaria, el vestuario utilizado por todo el ejercito es como una obra de arte multicolor algo que jamás había visto en otro ejercito y eso fue una de las cosas que más capto mi atención, además de la banda sonora de la película, y lo que también puedo mencionar es la sincronía con la que el ejercito ejecutaba todos sus movimientos y las cosas asombrosas que nunca antes había visto para atacar al enemigo, aunque esto no sería ni lo mínimo de suficiente para luchar con semejante ejercito de monstruos.
    If we talk about costumes and setting, the film is in my opinion extraordinary, the costumes used by the entire army is like a multicolored work of art, something that I had never seen in another army and that was one of the things that most caught my attention, besides from the soundtrack of the movie, and what I can also mention is the synchronicity with which the army executes all its movements and the amazing things that I have never seen before to attack the enemy, although this would not be the least bit enough to fight with such an army of monsters.

    Ver a Matt Damon como mercenario me resulto en lo personal un poco extraño, no se porque razón mi mente nunca lo puede asociar como un personaje malo, creo que las pocas películas que he visto de él siempre ha sido siendo del bueno, por el contrario su amigo interpretado por Pedro Pascal si da una buena impresión de hombre malo, esa sería una de mis quejas, y que tal vez no cuente con un guion o diálogos tan profundos, es una película que pasa rápido así que no la sentirás como eterna, tiene un parecido al señor de los anillos en ciertos aspectos, gracias a su misticismo y a la mitología china que le introducen la hacen un poco más interesante pero nada más sorprende hay de eso.
    Seeing Matt Damon as a mercenary was a bit strange for me personally, I don't know why my mind can never associate him as a bad character, I think the few movies I've seen of him have always been good, on the contrary his friend played by Pedro Pascal if he gives a good impression of a bad man, that would be one of my complaints, and that perhaps it does not have such a deep script or dialogues, it is a movie that passes quickly so you will not feel it as eternal, It has a resemblance to the Lord of the Rings in certain aspects, thanks to its mysticism and the Chinese mythology that they introduce make it a little more interesting but there is nothing more surprising than that.

    Tal vez el tema de los Tao Tei y los efectos especiales no son tan creíbles en ciertos momentos, y eso hace que pierda un poco de fuerza, pero a pesar de todo resulta bastante entretenida de ver, ya que no deja que te duermas en ningún momento porque todo es por la lucha contra los monstruos, creo que el problema se encuentra en la trama, que no es para nada compleja ni profunda, tal vez te traten de transmitir un mensaje de unión como sociedad para defender una causa incluso así tengas que dar tu vida y de hacer lo correcto en el momento correcto, pero nada más allá. Aunque en lo personal creo que la volvería a ver solo para disfrutar de la banda sonora y el ejercito maravilloso que crearon, realmente me encanto.
    Perhaps the theme of the Tao Tei and the special effects are not so believable at certain times, and that makes it lose a bit of strength, but despite everything, it is quite entertaining to watch, since it does not let you fall asleep at any time. moment because everything is for the fight against monsters, I think the problem is in the plot, which is not complex or deep at all, maybe they try to convey a message of unity as a society to defend a cause even if you have to give your life and do the right thing at the right time, but nothing beyond. Although personally I think I would watch it again just to enjoy the soundtrack and the wonderful army they created, I really loved it.

    Y como dato curioso algo que no sabía es que la película fue estrenada en el 2016 no me imaginaba que fuera algo vieja, y que haya requerido un presupuesto de US$135 millones, algo exorbitante para una película no tan buena en su género, además de que fue completamente grabada en China y que creo una polémica en los medios por la participación de Matt Damon, ya que decían que su personaje debia ser interpretado por un actor Chino y no por un hombre blanco, es parecida a la polémica que genero la sirenita donde la chica era una morena cuando debia haber sido siempre interpretada por una chica de piel blanca como su personaje principal, algo así hacen referencia con Damon ¡increíble! ¿Cierto?, si ya viste esta película por favor me encantaría saber tu opinión en los comentarios, Gracias por llegar hasta aquí.
    And as a curious fact, something I did not know is that the film was released in 2016, I did not imagine that it was something old, and that it required a budget of US$135 million, something exorbitant for a film that is not so good in its genre, in addition to that was completely recorded in China and that created a controversy in the media due to the participation of Matt Damon, since they said that his character should be played by a Chinese actor and not by a white man, it is similar to the controversy generated by the little mermaid where the girl was a brunette when she should have always been played by a white-skinned girl as her main character, something like that makes reference to Damon, incredible! Right? If you've already seen this movie, please, I'd love to hear your opinion in the comments. Thank you for coming this far.

  6. "The Great Wall" - disappointing movie for me- review@godflesh2967d

    Usually, when I sit down to write a review, I've seen the movie at least twice. The first time for pleasure, the second time for analysis. "The Great Wall" I only looked at it once, not for pleasure, there wasn't. The analysis is a reflection of the angry annoyance I experience from this type of movie. I watched it because the director is a name I respect, and because I keep in touch with the cinema. And cinema is not just the good cinema. The draft is ready when you sink in the sea, hang a disposable pack, have a jellyfish, and some shit is reported alongside you. In such waters, the films are currently being polluted. "The Great Wall" is the most expensive Chinese film ever made. It costs $ 150 million. Director Zhang Imiou says he has directed it to open the way for young Chinese filmmakers to Hollywood. I guess his ambition is to show that the Chinese can give Hollywood a cultural diversity. The problem, however, is that if it was Imoiu's justification to get hold of the money machine, then it is a failure; the film is entirely American - like atmosphere, pace and history. Which makes his Chinese director and all Chinese actors internally mercenaries. At home, I have the book "1001 movies you must watch", as the title suggests, a collection of important 20th and 21st century movies. Inside, there are 2 films written by Zhang Yimu, "Red Sorghum" and "Take the Red Lantern". Miss "Hero", who is also his most famous film. "The Great Wall" was directed by a cadre director, behind whose back there are several highly rated by critics and audiences.

    TheGreatWallpic.jpg

    Alas, the film is a breathless series of battle scenes. Matt Damon's character arrives in China with his Amigo, who is so as Sancho Pansa that when you look at him you smell of sausage (in the role of Pedro Pascal of Narcos). The two in China are sent to look for gunpowder. (The action is evolving in the Middle Ages, the best time for brainless movies and non-computer games.) Our characters in the first 10 minutes encounter a monster, kill it, grab it, get into one of the fortifications of the Great Wall, where the Nameless Order (its name is to be a nameless, a red point of ideology), and the fight begins. The first battle scene is visually impressive. The Nine Order Chinese fight as ballers dance - gracefully and in tact, - some are loading weapons, others are dancing on drums, others firing with bows, fourth (women dressed in magnificent blue suits) diving straight down the wall hanging for ropes equipped with long spears to pierce the monsters. A detailed scene shot is great. From then on, the film is superfluous. It could only be left with the first scene showing the absolute sacrifice of every Chinese soldier who groped all his blood for his native Empire. On the other hand, the Euro-centric attitude is that the warrior is the best soldier when he is alone (an idea portrayed by Matt Damon). All this is clear in the first 15 minutes and the film to the end does not offer anything deeper as a conclusion. If they cut most of the film, one could save 100 million to make a movie like "Manchester by the sea".

    mattdamon.png

    "The Great Wall" is an inspired narrative story for children. Neither the monsters are terrifying, nor the mythology around them is tangled and intriguing. Heroes are a matrix product - the hatchling, the selfish, the sacrificial. The film does not surprise anywhere. I only remember one thing - there is no kiss between the fighting Chinese beauty and the fat Matt Damon. She managed to resist it even after washing her hair, and he dropped it to continue wandering around the wide world with Sancho Pansa. Shock! Blockbuster is a military term that means putting bombs in the air that make rubble and dust complex buildings, whole neighborhoods. Blockbuster animates everything from its path, disappears, flattens it. It works the same way for the audience. He fascinates it with vision, cradles the technology, and turns the movie experience into a blatant glorification of the Image, the Graphics, the empty, colorful box filled with serenity and oblivion. Blockbusters (which is undoubtedly both a budget and a "Great Wall" quality) aim at seeing, not watching. They superimpose image after image, combined with constantly flowing music, dialogue, no empty strokes, pauses, silence; the greatest modern fear is that it would not be accidental for the viewer to get bored and decide to do something else. Blockbuster does not give you time, it steals the most of you, claiming it is a modern and technologically perfect form of entertainment that is worthy of respect for the talent of its team, audience and mass. My biggest problem with the film is the director's moral decision to direct it at all. You should have principles; if you made a movie like a "Hero" - gentle, poetic, deep and memorable - you do not get down to the level of flat worms that make movies like the Great Wall. Otherwise, on your deathbed, you are doomed to apologize to the gods of all religions. Why do you apologize for making another filth, creating another noise along the chain, throwing another line on the street. That's why he has a very good word - adulterant. Adulterant is any substance they put in food, drink, or drugs to replace the essential substance to "deceive" the consumer that he consumes something authentic while actually offering him foul and chaff. Interestingly, the root seems to be the same as in the adultery word.

    In one video channel there was an analysis dedicated to the music in Marvel's films. Tony Zu (the man behind the channel ) stops people in the streets and begs them to blow up the soundtracks of famous film universes like Harry Potter, Star Wars, Indiana Jones. Everybody humming, everyone knows the melodies. Then he begs them to take music from Marvel's movie. And they all get stuck, no one thinks anything. Tony Zu explains this in the following way: In Marvel's films (and the same can be said for most blockbusters), the music is used only as background. The music is usually such as to express exactly the same emotionally expressed scene at the given moment - if something sad happens, the music is minor if something fun is happening - the music is solemn, and so on. One of the most important elements of the cinema story - the soundtrack - has the role of just some add-on. "The Great Wall" is the background. It is an echo of all the films before it, for which other people have written similar reviews. It's a piece of chewing gum that tastes in 10 minutes, that nasty wafer whose chocolate does not look like anything, it's just more of a movie, one of the many, a child of our modern deception that art serves, to distract you, to our even greater and deeper delusion, that boredom is both possible and unacceptable.
