Yhdysvaltalaissotilaat Allan ”Ize” Isaac ja Shane Matthews vastaavat hätäpuheluun sodanjälkeisen Irakin autiomaassa. Paikan päällä kohteessa heitä kohti yllättäen ammutaan. Shane (John Cena) loukkaantuu pahasti ja Allan (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) saa luodin jalkaansa. Paettuaan suojaan murenevan kivimuurin taakse Allan huomaa joutuvansa taistelemaan henkensä edestä vastassaan näkymätön tarkka-ampuja, jolla on kaikki valtit käsissään. (Universal Sony Pictures HE Fin.)

A sniper-discussion confrontation between an Iraqi professor quoting Frost and Poe and his American counterpart, who dismisses them as “gay-ass Haji poems.” They are separated by a crumbling wall, by their motivations for killing, and by their reasons for living. The groaning, sand-crunching Aaron Taylor-Johnson showcased his physical acting skills, extracting nearly the maximum from a concept full of limitations. The finale with the rescue team is somewhat debatable, but I get it—reputation only matters as long as it lasts. By the way, casting the hefty Cena as an army sniper is an interesting choice. Once he’s out in the open, Bocelli wouldn’t even miss hitting him.

A rather bold attempt at filming a quite confined movie. A group of snipers fighting for survival. A few characters in a very small space, almost nothing is going to happen, you think, but it's not boring at all, and you wonder how it will all turn out. Taylor-Johnson and Cena showed their skills and impressed me. I had a nice time with it.

A minimalist war film isn’t your typical genre, but this one pulls it off with just a wounded soldier hiding behind a wall, another crawling through a field, and a sniper watching them both while conversing with the injured one via radio. It’s a compelling piece that captivates through its simplicity.

Liman’s cheap desert exercises and a huge one man show of a cunning sniper. The Wall isn’t a traditional war movie, it has more realistic approach and doesn’t side the Yankees, which is very refreshing. It’s a little bit boring at places, but its message is worth it. A great ending.
