White House has fallen Down Olympus Dying Hard

You may perhaps have seen a movie called Olympus has fallen? Its about a group of terrorists who take over the White house in America and try to launch some nuclear bombs. It contains lots of scenes of blowing things up and generally smashing the White House about.

Well not content with smashing the white house up just the once, this year we have almost the identical movie White House Down. I can only imagine it is “Please the Terrorists Month” or something because the timing of these releases is terrible with the two films and their story lines being almost identical. Maybe a couple of directors couldn’t agree on how to make the film, so they both had their own goes…

Either way White House Down is not a bad action film. If you have seen Die Hard (again pretty much the same storyline here) you will love this film, Channing Tatum dons the famous Die Hard white singlet and goes into action. White House Down is at least is original in asking us can we really trust the people in elected government? (in between lots of blowing things up).
