Decent action movie but not as good as Olympus has fallen which is similar and came out around the same time. The problem with this is not the story it is the acting which is not the best and a bit cheesy at times but if you are looking for a decent action movie it is not bad to watch.

"White House Down" promises slick action and lots of malicious property destruction. On that basis, it's an enjoyable summer diversion, but it's what Roland Emmerich manages to do with it that's really surprising.It's a Die Hard movie. Not even really a clone, but an actual, honest-to-god, best-we've-gotten-since-1995 Die Hard movie. It blows the last two sequels out of the water and fills in the whole checklist: Down-on-his-luck protagonist (check) Confined space (check) Loved one in danger (check) Black sidekick (check) Outside support (check) (the list goes on)Make no mistake, I don't go into these action movies with an actual checklist. But this was a wholly enjoyable curveball. Seriously, did any of us see this movie coming? It looked terrible!

Olympus Has Fallen was a far better movie. I'm tired of seeing the nuclear football being used over and over again in films. The president was immature and idiotic. When the president of the united states says "hands off my Jordan's!", something is wrong. The writing was amateurish and honestly - if you don't think it was propaganda, democrat or republican, you don't know anything about politics. What are the messages: We should get all our troops out of the middle east Republicans are crazy terrorists who don't want peace All it takes is a nice guy who is willing to listen to the middle east, and all our conflicts can be solved. Also, the acting of that little girl was terrible. I kept hoping she'd get killed... no such luck.
