Aaron Taylor-Johnson and John Cena’s latest movie is a war time drama/thriller.
Directed by Doug Liman, The Wall is set during a standoff between an Iraqi sniper and an American sharpshooter.
I want to to see this since I’m a big Taylor-Johnson fan and also because it would be great to watch John Cena do a great job with the role.
Well done trailer maker! Good edit and the tension is very promising.
Laith Nakli also stars.
The Wall Release Dates: March 10th, (2017)…

Until The Siege Of Jadotville, I’d only seen Jamie Dornan in one movie; the hugely successful but not particularly well-regarded Fifty Shades Of Grey (2015). Since the latter film, I’ve been looking forward to finding out what else Dornan could do in front of the camera.
Directed by Richie Smyth and set in early 1960s Congo, The Siege Of Jadotville is based on the true story of Irish UN Commander Pat Quinlan and his leadership of 150 Irish soldiers against 3000 French and Belgian Mercenaries.
My enjoyment of this movie isn’t because I was blinded by the beautiful Irish accents, for, the entire cast delivered good performances and there’s a beautifully tense scene at a bar quite early on. There’s also the cinematography and how well Smyth and his team rose to the challenge of capturing military combat.
By the end of the movie, I was left inspired to fight my corner when necessary, happy to have found my favourite Jamie Dornan movie to date, and reminded to be careful of underestimating my opponents, even when the odds appear to be in my favour.
Watch The Siege Of Jadotville, which also stars Jason O’Mara, Mark Strong, Danny Sapani and Sam Keeley – to name just a few, because there is certainly more to enjoy than just the lovely Irish accents.

Based on the book by Ben Fountain and starring Joe Alwyn, Vin Diesel, plus, Kristen Stewart, Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk is the latest movie from truly great director, Ang Lee (Life Of Pi (2012) and Brokeback Mountain (2005)
I’m most looking forward to seeing the smart way in which this story comes to life, the way that it shows the realities of war compared with America’s perceptions.
I wonder if my favourite war movie will still be The Hurt Locker (2008) after this. I guess I’ll soon find out.
Garrett Hedlund, Chris Tucker and Steve Martin also star.
Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk Release Dates: October 14th, 2016 (US); January 6th, 2017 (UK); January 26th, 2017 (GER)…

Andrew Garfield is the star of Mel Gibson’s latest film, Hacksaw Ridge.
Garfield plays real-life WWII American Army Medic Desmond T. Doss, a man who joins the army but refuses to kill people.
I don’t know what the word is for how this trailer makes me feel, but I know I’ll have to be in the right mood to sit and watch.
This trailer gives off a kind of Forrest Gump (1994) quality but somehow manages to pull even harder at the heartstrings; all of which makes me think that the end product is going to be, dare I say, overly sappy.
Perhaps I’d be more intrigued had the trailer not revealed so much. All that has been left out of this trailer appears to be the presentation of the Medal of Honour. As continues to be the case, I find myself missing the good trailers of the past that cleverly showed you only enough but never too much.
My favourite Mel Gibson-directed movie will likely always be Apocalypto (2006).
Sam Worthington, Ryan Corr, Luke Bracey, Vince Vaughn and Hugo Weaving also star.
Hacksaw Ridge Release Dates: November 4th ,2016 (US); (GER)
