London has Fallen

This thriller certainly does have plenty of action to keep the plot moving. It opens well with many of London’s landmarks exploding spectacularly; albeit with not as much devastation as I would have liked. There's some Arnie quotes thrown in like ‘Get to the chopper’ and ‘I’ be back’ without even a cheesy grin; meaning that the writers are clearly running out of ideas. The ending is a long and drawn out shooter with one hero taking on as many bad guys as possible; with the plot fading out faster than the terrorists can keep up with. It's a shame that the ending was confined to a simple closed building rather than somewhere more exciting and iconic like the top of a double decker bus on Tower Bridge. Plus a few more explosions would have made it much more dramatic. But as a movie it works well for a general shoot-em up; but the script seems to be suited more to a video game rather than a feature film.
