Olympus Has Fallen

I wish they'd change this title to "'MURICA". This is also why I'm not a producer.


My experience watching this was not the best. That's not to say this movie wasn't enjoyable. However, there was a man who sat in the same row as me who was not enjoyable. Let me break it down for you using the rules and etiquette of viewing a movie in public.


  • Do not talk during the presentation, unless of course it is a Tyler Perry movie or any other movie where the main demographic is African-Americans.
  • If you're coughing excessively and it sounds like you might need an ambulance or at least to quit smoking, please exit the theatre and receive a full cash refund at the box office. Seriously, no one wants to hear what's in your throat.
  • Laughing when people are dying in something that is not a comedy is generally just not a good idea. It makes people around you think you are a serial killer. But if you're a serial killer, by all means, laugh on.
  • It's one thing to whisper jokes to your friends during the movie, but if you are alone... you're a bastard and I hate you.

Now that I got that off my chest...

"Olympus Has Fallen" is about a man who works for the Secret Service. He is taken off of Presidential Detail when the First Lady dies while he is on the job. When the White House is overrun by terrorists, he finds himself the only man alive inside the White House and has to take on an army single handedly.

"MURICAN chaos ensues.

Oh Say, Can You See...
By the Dawns Early Light...
What so Proudly We Hailed...
At The Twilights Last Gleaming...
Whose Broad Stripes and Bright Stars...
Through the Perilous fight...
O'er the ramparts we watched...
Were so gallantly streaming...
And the Rockets Red Glare...
The Bomb's Bursting in Air...
Oh, Say does that Star Spangled....
Banner yet wave...
O'er the land of the free...
And the home of the brave!!!!

Anyway... this movie was good.

My Grade: B+
