As an unlikely buddy-buddy film, I enjoyed it for what it was, a light-hearted comedy about a dire situation where the White House comes under attack. Sure, there are bouts of setting the table for emotional heart-tugging by introducing us to the main character of John Cale, his daughter, and their fateful visit to the White House (primarily for a job interview for a Secret Service detail job for John, that turns into a White House tour visit, and then into chaos), but plenty of bombastic action and minor quips to keep the audience awake for the roller coaster ride.
I give it 2.5 stars, or a grade of C+.
