London Has Fallen

This is your basic action flick that allows the viewer to chew on their bucket of popcorn without needing to engage their brain all that much through the film.

While the destruction of London is a sight to behold at times, the fault in the film is that the villains aren't that interesting, and Gerard Butler's character is so over-the-top confident in his ability to protect the President in spite of overwhelming odds. There are some funny action-movie rejoinders, but it's an explosively predictable film.

I give it 2.5 stars, or a grade of C+.
