- The Great Wall's casting was criticized for whitewashing, but Jing Tian's performance as Commander Lin Mae was a standout.
- Jing Tian's role in The Great Wall highlights her strong potential as a modern action star in international cinema.

What’s most disappointing about the creative direction that The Great Wall took was that the concept had potential.
