At the close of the Iraq War, U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Shane Matthews, a sniper, along with his spotter, Sergeant Allen Isaac, are assigned to the 51st ODA.[clarification needed][citation needed] They are sent to investigate a pipeline construction site in the Iraqi desert where contractors and their security detail have all fallen victim to a sniper.

The pair patiently wait 22 hours on overwatch before determining that the site is clear. Matthews proceeds to investigate the site, but is shot by famed Iraqi sniper nicknamed Juba." Isaac tries to rescue the dying Matthews, but he is also wounded in the right knee and has his radio damaged and his water bottle destroyed in the process.

Alone, Isaac takes cover behind an unsteady wall and tends to his wounds. The sniper has a radio tuned into the American channel, and uses it to communicate with Isaac initially under the pretense of being a high ranking allied soldier at another site. The deception allows the sniper to get other useful information from Isaac. Throughout their various one-sided attempts at conversation, we learn that the sniper does not claim to be the mythical Juba mentioned earlier in the film, a nom de guerre for various Iraqi Insurgent snipers notorious for filming their attacks on American soldiers.

Matthews regains consciousness and subtly gets Isaac's attention that he is still alive. Matthews slowly crawls towards his rifle in the midst of the dusty wind along with Isaac distracting Juba with small talk. Matthews believes that the sniper is hiding at the top of some rubble nearby and fires in that direction. The dusty wind settles quickly. The sniper sees Matthews and fires, injuring Matthews in the left shoulder as he crawled towards the wall, but a second shot kills him.

Isaac's attempts to call headquarters for help are stymied by the loss of his radio antennae. He attempts to repair this item with one from a dead contractor's radio, only to discern that the sniper had used the earlier response team as a ruse to call for help and lure another response force into his jaws.

Isaac hears the rescue helicopters coming, so he pushes down the wall and uses Matthews' rifle to try and kill Juba, or at least flush him out so the rescue chopper can see the trap. Juba fires at Isaac twice and misses. Isaac now has the sniper's location and fires his only round. Isaac stands up and waits for Juba's next shot, but it never comes. Thus he assumes his shot was successful, and Juba is either injured or dead. The helicopters then land and the rescue team picks up Isaac and Matthews. Once the helicopters dust off, Juba successfully shoots down both in rapid succession. He is then heard over the radio, calling for another rescue to set a new trap.

On November 12, 2014, it was announced that Amazon Studios had bought its first ever original spec script by Dwain Worrell, about an American sharpshooter trapped behind a wall by an Iraqi sniper. Worrell wrote his screenplay while teaching English in China.[6][7] Worrell drew from his background as a playwright to flesh out the second act of the screenplay, which focuses on Isaac's conversation with the sniper. Worrell said, "What interested me about it was the simple conversation between two people. That could almost be had on a New York City park bench with two guys playing chess. There is that sort of dynamic between the characters in the film."[8] The script appeared in the 2014 Black List of most liked un-produced screenplays.[6]

On March 29, 2016, it was reported that Doug Liman had been hired to direct the psychological thriller.[7] Glen Basner's FilmNation Entertainment handled the film's international sales at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, allowing for a theatrical release.[9]

On May 9, 2016, Variety confirmed that Aaron Taylor-Johnson had joined the film's cast to play Isaac, the junior American soldier.[3] On November 29, it was reported that Amazon had partnered with Roadside Attractions to distribute the film, which would also star John Cena, and the film would now follow two American soldiers. Amazon produced the film along with Big Indie Pictures, and Picrow, and Dave Bartis.

Director Doug Liman reveals on the DVD commentary that the original ending of the film was a happy ending with the successful rescue of Sgt. Isaac. After the first public showing, Liman went back to Amazon Studios for additional money to reshoot the ending.

On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 65% based on 125 reviews, with an average rating of 6/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "The Wall makes the most of its limitations -- albeit perhaps not quite enough to stretch its tight-focused action into a consistently gripping feature-length thriller."[10] On Metacritic, the film has a score 56 out of 100, based 26 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Common Sense Media has given a rating of 4/5, while the Washington Post has given a rating of 3/4.[11]

At this point, WALL-E does the gentlemanly thing, looking after EVE while she gestates, as a man might do for his pregnant wife. I must add that having had four kids over three births, my innate maleness kicked in for my pregnant wife very often, looking very carefully out for her. I think I was more apt to consider her slipping, falling, getting into trouble then as I was now or before. I think.

But oh no, says the man with no chill. WALL-E takes so much from the Book of Genesis that I fear I am not wrong at all; in fact, I am spot on, given the acknowledged Christianity of Andrew Stanton and some of the moviemakers involved.

My students have told me I have \u201Cno chill.\u201D At first I thought this was quite bad \u2014 as if I don\u2019t have coolness or calmness. But no, they meant I don\u2019t have much of a filter, which to them is quite good, mostly.

I suspect the \u201Cno chill\u201D claim results because of examples like the one that follows. The one I\u2019m about to tell you makes them go \u201Cwtf?\u201D and \u201Ccan he really say that about an animated piece of entertainment?\u201D

But I think it\u2019s there, in WALL-E, one of the most respected movies of the last 20 years. That is, the WALL-E robot impregnates his would-be girlfriend EVE, and that leads to the restoration of humanity to its proper place as stewards of Earth.

I say this because the Adam-and-Eve symbolism is so obvious that the very feminized character that needs to \u201Cgive birth\u201D in the film is named EVE. Adding to that, WALL-E is an Adam figure at the beginning, the \u201Clast man on Earth\u201D of post-apocalyptic fare but also the \u201Cfirst man\u201D who is tending to his own garden.

Wall-E finds it during his daily salvage routine. As an American Picker trying to find treasures in big piles of junk, WALL-E discovers life itself, the last or first life on Earth. This is the beginning of the new garden, without anybody knowing it until the movie\u2019s end.

Here I ask students how and why we know that WALL-E is basically a man and EVE is basically a woman. The voices make it obvious. Their appearances \u2014 he\u2019s dirty and mechanical; she\u2019s sleek and curvy \u2014 register with us all unconsciously. (I\u2019d add that she\u2019s an Apple product while he\u2019s a garbage-compactor with interchangeable parts, and maybe there\u2019s something feminine/masculine in those associations, too.)

Showing EVE around his bachelor pad, WALL-E tries to impress his date. He brings out the plant. Immediately EVE\u2019s programming kicks in. Her plant-program runs. She opens her compartment door, contains the plant within herself, and turns catatonic.

Once WALL-E gets to the ship, as he holds on for dear life through space travel, his impregnated wife is taken away. Just look at her: to me she looks oval, egg-like. And when they strap her down on that table and take her away, I\u2019m reminded of labor days in the hospital.

WALL-E pursues her, wanting to protect her but possibly also wanting to see the \u201Cbirth.\u201D His first priority is her; his second is the plant. This is the order of operations EVE needs to learn \u2014 others come first, namely WALL-E himself, and then the plant, the proper order of love for each individual. (The movie\u2019s resolution turns on EVE relearning what her \u201Cdirective\u201D is. The directive becomes 1) love WALL-E, and then 2) take care of the plant, which is the right and only way to take care of the plant.)

One massive idea in Genesis, so massive it\u2019d be hard to miss, is the stark division between fertility and sterility. God creates everything, the ultimate act of fertility, and then life breeds new life ad infinitum.

When sterility happens in Genesis, the reader is supposed to feel it. That includes Cain killing his brother Abel, which is anti-fertility, not only for Abel himself but for his \u201Cseed,\u201D a common word used in English translations to denote a person\u2019s future offspring. By contrast with Abel\u2019s death, the seed of Abraham needs to spread and be as numerous as the stars in the sky and the sands on the beach. For awhile in the Abraham story, this seems ridiculous and impossible, given how old and infertile Abraham and Sarah are.

Anyway, on sterility in Genesis, you feel it in the Sodom-and-Gomorrah story everywhere. Those cities are destroyed and can never \u201Creproduce\u201D anything. Neither can Lot\u2019s wife. What I\u2019m saying even makes some sense of the weird Onan story, who pulled out and spilled his seed, rather than doing the procreative deed.
