"A Great Wall"

I found "A Great Wall" a very sweet little indie movie. It's the dual story of a Chinese-American man who brings his family to China to visit his sister who he hasn't seen in 30 years. It also centers on her family in Peking. As you'd expect, the Chinese-American Dad takes in many aspects of Classical Chinese culture and learns to appreciate them. The movie is well acted. There's not a lot of action in the movie and it  does moves at a leisurely pace. In the end, I found it to be a real gem of a movie.

4 stars out of 5.
