ComedyDrama

The first American movie shot in China, "A Great Wall" is a delightful comedy about a San Francisco computer programmer who quits and moves his family to stay with his sister in Peking where he nostalgically searches for the traditional China he left behind. The culture clash develops in unexpected, hilarious directions, which all come to a head in a climactic ping pong battle.
