The Great Wall (2016)


 

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.

Big-budget Chinese monster movie in a historic setting is basically action-filled entertainment, but has lots of visual delight, imaginative fight scenes and some good special effects.

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)


 

Diana must contend with a work colleague and businessman, whose desire for extreme wealth sends the world down a path of destruction, after an ancient artifact that grants wishes goes missing. 

Although this sequel is a step down from the first film (with quite a silly plot), it still is enjoyable tongue-in-cheek entertainment with an accurate 80s feeling to it, lots of over-the-top action and some credible romance; and Gal Gadot once again proves that she is the absolutely best choice to impersonate this superhero.

Prospect (2018)



A man and his teenage daughter encounter nonstop danger while searching for valuable gems on an alien moon.

Very good low-budget sci-fi adventure makes the most out of its limited possibilities creating a palpable  extraterrestrial world, but is just as much focused on character as on suspense; and
Sophie Thatcher is a force to be reckoned with.
