I saw "Olympus has Fallen" and that was damn good. Especially the lovely Angela Bassett :-)

This is the one with Morgan Freeman as the heroic vice president of the United States, right? I think I remember that from the trailer. “They have no idea who they’re dealing with, do they?” he says. ‘Cause he’s all tough from the streets, right?

What way are you watching it? We’ve been thinking of seeing it too.

Olympus Has Fallen was pretty good.

White House Down seemed to scripted with a ‘Hollywood’ type plot.

are you serious?

I’m shocked. The moment I saw Morgan Friedman in it, I said, “no way.” I assumed that it would be some left wing drivel.

I’m geniunely surprised

I don’t think it’s that far away when a high ranking royal converts.

Just wait until they have authority over those U.S.A. Trident II D5 W88-warhead ballistic missiles on board British submarines.

What could possibly go wrong?

Saw it.

When they can’t even get the basic fact of a senior police officer’s rank right, I find it really hard to take the film seriously.

There is a huge difference between the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police and a Chief Inspector. It’s the difference between an (Army) Captain and a full General.

Also - apparently they have magical drone technology that means a drone is always hovering over the President - even when he’s on the run in a foreign city.

And “The American embassy is surrounded by bad guys but I still have to try and take the President there.” How about an allied embassy that is not surrounded by bad guys? How about Buckingham Palace, or the Tower of London, or Clarence House, or any of the other Royal Palaces in London... any of them would let the President in... sure, you don’t know exactly who you can trust but then why do you trust the guy who said he was with the SAS?

(I did enjoy the movie, but I had to turn at least half my brain off to do so. I enjoyed Olympus Has Fallen a lot more).

Excellent movie. Saw it in the movie theater. My wife was not bored and loved it as much as I did.

Think in the “Detroit has fallen.” the really bad muslim guy goes ballistic after someone feeds his daughter a bacon sandwich.

(Too bad Gerald Butler wasn’t chosen to portray Jack Reacher instead of 5’ 2” pussy Tom Cruise...what great sequels there would have been).
