Being Matt Damon and Andy Lau fans, we wouldn't have missed this movie. :)

We wanted to experience Gold Class again but didn't expect the tickets to be sold out! Gold Class till the next time then.

Never knew the movie was about war with some monsters! It was an action packed film nonetheless. Love the cinematography - was great! And the Chinese actress (or Commander Lin in the movie, later General).. wow, her English pronunciation was crystal clear!

Love the way they assembled everything together - the West meets the East, the war between the human beings and monstrous beings, greed vs trust and some suggested romance.


Other Matt Damon films we've watched:
The Martian
Elysium
The Bourne Series
And, of course not forgetting one of DC's old time favorites:
Saving Private Ryan
