Comments on Shakespeare White House Down

The White House has been captured again, for the second time in two months. However, I feel that this movie is better than the last one. The plot, characters, and lines are all fuller, which means it is more human and looks more appropriate. Whenever I see the villain pointing a gun at the protagonist's forehead, I get anxious, and there is a lot of bullshit. When there is a chance to kill the protagonist, don't be soft-hearted, shoot first and then talk. The movie is a bit old-fashioned, and many things are a bit stereotyped, too Hollywood-style, but I can't help but eat this.

White House Down quotes

  • Cale: So, what's it like being president?

    President Sawyer: It's not like anything. Once you get into office, it's all about re-election, and what the other side can use against you.

    Cale: Politics.

    President Sawyer: You don't start out a politician, but you become one. Just once, though, I wanna do something that's presidential. Something along the lines of Lincoln, Washington, and Jefferson.

    Cale: You wanna make history.

    President Sawyer: No. Not history. I wanna make a difference. If your little daughter says that I'm her hero, then I gotta earn that.

  • Finnerty: John, I want you to listen to me. Help is not coming.

    Cale: Did you hear what I just said? I said they have the president.

    Finnerty: John, they called an air strike on the White House. The Vice President is dead. You just need to get out of there.

    Cale: No, no, no. They cannot do that. They still have hostages. They still have Emily.

    Finnerty: I'm so, so sorry. I was wrong about you, but there's nothing you can do, John. If you stay, you're gonna die.

    Finnerty: Carol, I need you to listen to me. My little girl is counting on me right now, and I am not gonna disappear on her. Okay? So you tell me how much time I have.

    Finnerty: You only have eight minutes left to get them out.
