I was very surprised. Reminded me a lot of the movie Phonebooth. Very simple but good movie. Doug Liman direction showed great pacing. Even though the scenery never changes and it's basically just two guys talking (like in Phonebooth). The movie never gets boring. ATJ with his best acting to date.
Surprising good movie. Very interesting concept and Aaron Taylor-Johnson was great. How did the sniper shoot John Cena, he cant see him.
Was a good thriller. The end was disappointing though.
For two guys just talking it was rather not bad. A bit of suspense and Aaron Taylor was great.
It was tense. A movie like this you'd think you rely on action, but there was so much to chew on with 2 actors and a voice, which Mr. Nakli did so well. It was not a perfect movie, but it was haunting.
Not bad, but not as tense as it perhaps should have been. Still, for a single location movie, it does well to last 90 minutes.
While _The Wall_ is a decent movie with a script that has similarities to the movie _Mine_, I expected more from it. The action scenes were good, but there were times when the pacing was a slow, making it drag on a bit. Overall, a decent movie, but don't go in with sky-high expectations.

Absolutely go see it. Aaron Taylor-Johnson is so great in this movie. The entire run-time of this feature could be his Best Actor Winner clip show reel. His dramatic and enticing performance in this just blew me away. You feel the pain he feels as he's pinned down to a small brick wall, being forced to remove a bullet from his leg, watching his partner being pushed to the ground by sniper-point; it's a lot like Dunkirk, but without the music. No music plays the whole movie. Isaac, played by Johnson, and his partner, played by John Cena, are currently out investigating a pipeline in Iraq when things go from suspicious to a nightmare. Cena's character gets pinned down after being shot by an unidentified sniper named Juba. Isaac is forced to stay behind a wall to hide from the shooter that that has both of them pinned down. From there, the movie becomes one big chess game. The sniper wants to get information from Isaac by talking to him over his radio transmission. What he wants to do with that information, we don't know yet. I actually don't want to say that much, in fear of spoiling, but this movie engrossed me from beginning to end. I've never seen an hour and a half fly by that quickly. I wasn't bored at any moment during this. You're constantly on the edge of your seat questioning what's going. The pieces slowly become clearer as time goes on, and the sniper's motivations, I suppose, are what constitutes as the the "twist" ending. The reveal will make you have one of two reactions... or both. Flipping fantastic stuff. You start to like it the more you think about it. I only loved it even more as I thought about while driving home from the theater. The actors did an incredible job with the material they were given, it's not exactly the happiest movie you'll ever see, but it sucked me in so much. One of my favorite movies of 2017 so far.
Very lean, simple war thriller. Not Liman's best, but he does manage to hold your attention for what should normally be a dull set up. That said, it's a shoestring of a plot, stretching itself out far too much.
A pale Iraq war remake of 2010's Buried.
