London
Has Fallen 3/10
I read
my review again for the movie Olympus Has Fallen from a few years
back and apparently I really enjoyed it. I just watched London Has
Fallen tonight and can not say the same thing. This movie is about
terrorists getting revenge and the reason why seems amazingly
justified. The bad guy is at his daughters wedding and it gets bombed
killing a bunch of folks but not him. He decides to attack all these
word leaders including the president Benjamin Asher again played by
Aaron Eckhart. Of course there to protect him is Mike Banning played
by Gerard Butler. Instead of ignoring his wife like in the first film
she is pregnant so that means there is one more dangerous mission.
At the
funeral all hell breaks loose and everybody is getting killed. These
bad guy with good reason have the best orchestrated plan in the
history of villainy. I mean, they even have those British guards with
fuzzy hats on their side. Its fucking nuts. Banning and Asher get
away with Angela Bassett. She dies because Black person in a
helicopter crash. Not crash. Its hit with a fucking rocket. The rest
of then movie is a bunch of Banning killing people and surviving shit
that no one should. Even when they kill the bad guy it didn't make me
feel good because his reasons for the killing, while extreme as fuck
in method, seemed justified. And just to prove they learned nothing
they end up killing the original bad guy using the same method that
caused all this shit!
This
movie was not close to as fun or entertaining as the first. The
effects were terrible. The car chases showed nothing new or exciting.
If you just want to see shit get blown up with bad special effects
then by all means watch this. There is a third one coming out and
I'll wait for that to come on demand to check it out.
