Review: London has Stolen the Fall
London has Fallen: This movie was decent, but it was a complete rip-off of “Olympus Has Fallen,” which takes place in London instead of Washington D.C. Seriously, if you’ve seen “Olympus has Fallen” then you’ve basically seen this movie too.
It has the same basic plot, the president gets captured by terrorists and people save him and he’s perfectly fine at the end. I’m not saying it was bad, I’m just saying its been done before, which made it predictable and boring.
This movie also has a lot of great actors such as Gerard Butler and Morgan Freeman. Even though this is a typical role for Freeman, the fact that he’s in this movie makes it better, because we all love him.
Though this movie has a few good action scenes, most of them are corny and stereotypical. There are also a lot of unintentionally racist British stereotypes.
This movie was rated R but I don’t really think it was all that inappropriate. Seeing this movie is basically a waste of time, and I’m sure there will always be better options. This movie is pretty much exactly what everyone expected it to be, which is a horrible use of a recycled plot. I give it two out of five stars.
