From Netflix:
Director Antoine Fuqua’s action thriller stars Gerard Butler as a disgraced Secret Service agent who must come to the rescue when Korean terrorists descend on the White House and take the president hostage.
Are we seeing a competition among movie makers to create more and more violent mayhem on screen? But so what! This particular film kills just about every U.S. employee possible, destroys the White House, lots of automobiles, and at least 5 helicopters. Despite what seems like the usual number of explosions this is a well-made, exciting, could-it-ever-happen action film just made for an alpha-male actor such as Gerard Butler.
If we ever look back to this film review, let’s note that it is the year 2013 and since every such film needs a villain, this year’s choice seems to be North Korea. Do you think the starving people in North Korea will ever be offended by this film?
From Google I found references to Cerberus, the three-headed dog that guards hell. Who knows if we could really detonate all our underground missiles at once while they are still in the ground?
Perhaps I am an action-film junkie, but I could not stop watching.
