When terrorists take down the White House (code name "Olympus"), a disgraced Secret Service agent attempts to rescue the president of the United States in Olympus Has Fallen, an electrifying and inspired action thriller from acclaimed director Antoine Fuqua (Training Day). A small group of heavily armed, meticulously trained extremists launch a daring daylight ambush on the White House, overrunning the building and taking President Benjamin Asher (Aaron Eckhart) and his staff hostage inside an impenetrable underground presidential bunker. As a pitched battle rages on the White House lawn, former presidential security officer Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) joins the fray, and finds his way into the besieged building to do the job he has trained for all his life: to protect the president -- at all costs. - 2012 Olympus Productions, Inc.

Despite it being loud and furious at times, I still managed to fall asleep watching this. Admittedly I was very tired, but even so not exactly great for an action flick. There are a million other films like this, but if you've nothing better to do then it's an OK way to waste a couple of hours - if a little predictable.

The film is filled with poor CGI and am awful story it's a good film to watch whilst doing something else like playing a game but not worth sitting down and watching with intention of following the story cause you'll get bored

Gung-ho action movie that leads to the redemption of the central character. The CGI was worryingly poor in places but the pace of the action was good. Butler seemed to have a preference for stabbing folk in the head - different approach, that's for sure. Overall, OK, if you're in the mood for a few beers and a movie with a high body count and no need to pay close attention to the plot.
