I agree with the reviewers who say this is much better than White House Down...don't waste your money on that one. This one has a better story, the threat feels more credible, and you can see the actors really putting their heart into this. You want to see a lot of "forced" acting, cheesy effects and dialogue, or unrealistic crap then watch WHD...but to get the cake and eat it too rent or buy OHF!!

I don't get why there are so many complaints about the realism of this movie. I got the impression that it was meant to be a popcorn action flick where you just sit down and enjoy the ride. I quite enjoyed the ride. It was silly at times but very entertaining. Took me back to Die Hard and other great ones like it from a while back. Not as strong as Die Hard obviously, but still a blast to watch.
