Some time ago, there happened to be a movie called "The Fall of the White House". Of course, the original name should be called Olympia has fallen. And this film is simply called "The White House Has Fallen", and I don't even bother to use metaphors or symbols. Of course, this kind of thrill-seeking shootout is of course enough to go straight most of the time. Ammunition at all costs, heroic presidents, super-powerful terrorists, conspiracy and conspiracy, all the necessary elements are readily available. What I didn't expect was that the beginning of the film took so long to lay the groundwork, which was a little procrastination. Come on, please, everyone is waiting for the bombing of the White House, director, don't judge him.
Objectively speaking, this film is still very enjoyable. The rhythm is tense and the scenes are wonderful. It is definitely a masterpiece worth relaxing and killing time. Much better than the previous one, especially in terms of logic. Well, although the occupation of the White House is not logical enough, the former actually recruited a group of North Koreans to occupy the White House, and the technology is still so high-end! Well, everyone knows that every day when people say that they will give people "devastating blows" and "destroying disasters", it is really just talk, but someone actually made up such a script, and there is really a director who just made a film like that. This is a happy shootout film of "Korean vs. White House".
I have to say that the whole film has maintained a high level, whether it is the plot, special effects or performances, even the things produced on the Hollywood assembly line are graded. Especially worth mentioning is Jimmy Fox, the absolute all-rounder, from Soul Singer to Django to President, he can surprise you every time. Especially choosing shoes, wearing glasses before holding a gun, and "don't touch my Jordan shoes", people can't help laughing. Of course, it is also due to the director's characterization of details without being contrived. Channing Tatum's special forces are still very exciting, but unfortunately it is difficult to highlight his personal color in that kind of sci-fi film. This time, Bruce Willis' performance in tribute to "Die Hard" is still worthy of recognition. Little Lolita looks like Chloe Moroz! Maggie was still as capable and graceful as ever. But, but, can you stop bombing the White House, you are a little tired of aesthetics, let's change the place next time, as for the place, well, I don't recommend it...
I don't want to dig anything from this film. National spirit and character, cultural traits and even the connotation of the system, just like drinking Coke and eating popcorn to watch an exotic screen show, but we are so obsessed with this exotic form. Familiar and accepted, but its connotation is so unfamiliar and neglected.
