Review of London Has Fallen (2016) by Private U — 16 Jun 2016
I wanted to write a lot negative adjectives but I think just saying 'stupid' describes this movie perfectly.
No plot and shallow characters. Everthing is totally foreseeable (expectable of an action movie and not a minus point per se. I like many movies without that stuff - nothing beats good old popcorn movies ;)).
What really irks me are two things:
1. (and I am not a ver political person) is how stupid the director makes all the security services and governments look. Say what you want but incompetence on that scale is not an attribute id assign any 'agency'.
2. the way the agents (especially the butler guy) are portrayed. They are shown as sardistic, mindless killers who can do nothing but swear and kill (even unnecessarily violent and slow).
---.
Again: I like action movies, but this one is just stupid and a total waste of time. Not even worth the bandwidth to download it :D.
