Olympus Has Fallen is yet an other US president oriented flick. A ton of action and special effects with almost as many logical flaws.

The acting is good, particularly Morgan Freeman (to a lesser extent: Gerard Butler and Aaron Eckhart) and there's no denying the roller coaster ride, but it has many shortcomings. Aside from the usual suspension of disbelief, logic fails at almost every turn. Then there's the poor dialogs, the easy retorts, the one dimensional underdeveloped characters, the incredible body count, and the overly flag-centric pride.

It's action based entertainment for sure, but not much else.

While "Olympus Has Fallen" is an entertaining and thrilling movie, it does however run on stereotypic fuel; one man who save the day and saves all of America.

The story is compelling and fast paced, right from the very beginning. And it keeps its high tempo right up to the end. Sure there were some very predictable moments and situations that even a blind man saw coming a mile away. But despite that, director Antoine Fuqua managed to put together a wholesome entertaining movie.

The action sequences are good and well executed, coming off as believable, despite it being one man against 28. And the way that these sequences were filmed just puts you right there in the action.

As for the acting, well, with a cast as this, you know that you are getting your moneys worth. Gerard Butler really carried the movie quite well. The movie also brandished talents such as Aaron Eckhart, Dylan McDermott, Angela Bassett and Morgan Freeman.

If you enjoy action movies then you should sit down and watch "Olympus Has Fallen", if you haven't already seen it, because it is quite entertaining.

With military like precision a group of North Korean terrorists attack and take over the White House and hold the POTUS Aaron Eckhart hostage. The group is led by John Yune and they've got so much sophisticated hardware and knowledge that despite North Korea's denials, ain't no way they have no hand in this. Given the current round of saber rattling from the newest dear leader Kim Jong Un, the film Olympus Has Fallen has a timely meaning to it. When will the world and specifically the powers around North Korea ever going to do something about that particular global cancer?

However there is Gerard Butler in the mix, a man formerly in charge of the White House Secret Service detail who is former Special Service and won't quit until he's rescued the people he's grown to know like the president and his son, young Finley Jacobsen.

All this takes place with Yune getting in there as part of the security detail of the South Korean prime minister who is meeting with Eckhart about the perennial North Korean problem. The prime minister gets assassinated and then Yune presents his list of demands. There's also a traitor in the President's official family.

Butler turns out to be a regular Rambo. Sly Stallone and Arnie Schwarzenegger never displayed as much skill and resilience as Butler does. All this while taking direction from acting President Morgan Freeman who is the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Action fans will probably love this film. But if security is that bad then Washington, we have a problem
