    4.5/10

    Olympus Has Fallen is, for all practical purposes, a modern remake of Die Hard that replaces Bruce Willis with Gerard Butler and Nakatomi Tower with the White House. Butler puts in a respectable performance as Mike Banning. Director Antoine Fuqua did as well as could be done with the story, and some gripping action makes it almost watchable. But the downfall of the film was its lazy writing. Almost no part of Olym…

    Out of the wealth of "_Die Hard in an (X)_" movies that are on offer, "_Die Hard in the White House_" is an.... okay one. The story is old hat and the CGI is awful, but the sequence of the initial attack on the White House isn't just good, it's great. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

    Great movie with action throughout. Lots of drama as well. Just your average insane crew trying to take over the white house.

    Olympus Has Fallen delivers a solid action thriller experience that keeps you engaged from start to finish. The first act sets the stage well, with a strong focus on character relationships, especially between Mike Banning and the presidential family. The chemistry here makes you care about what’s at stake, and it transitions smoothly into the high-stakes chaos of the second act. By the time you reach the ending, the…
