Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDue to scheduling conflicts, Morgan Freeman and Gerard Butler don't appear in the same scene together in person. The scene in the hallway at the White House uses body doubles, and doesn't show faces.
- GoofsIn the movie, the two helicopters accompanying Marine One are called Marine Two and Three. In real life, Marine One is the call sign of any US Marine Corps aircraft the President is traveling in. Marine Two is the call sign of any US Marine Corps aircraft carrying the Vice President. Marine Three is not used as it is never ruled-out of what the US's third-highest (after President and Vice-President) political office is.
- Quotes
Benjamin Asher: [after Banning kills a terrorist as his brother listens via radio] Was that necessary?
Mike Banning: No.
Featured review
This movie is great for it's genre; tactical porn. If you think sneaky assassins are cool, this is the movie for you.
Really guys, it's not meant to be a probing exploration of post-colonial cultural identity and the failure of western statecraft to respect indigenous autonomy. I'm well aware of the fact that the chaos of the third world didn't fall out of the sky, and that The West in general and America specifically is culpable in creating the monsters it now has to face.
That's not what this movie is about. This movie is about really clever and well coordinated terrorists attacking London again and again and again.
Is it blatantly patriotic and biased? Yep. Is it realistic? No. Is it fun if you like that sort of thing? You bet it is, and America totally kicks ass in it too! You should watch Olympus has Fallen as well. Frankly I think it's the better of the two.
