Angel Has Fallen

Gerard Butler takes viewers on a thrill ride as he fights for his reputation and his life.

Angel Has Fallen is a film in search of a soul. It doesn't find it, but the effort is appreciated.

It's a throwback piece of entertainment, but in the way it evaporates as soon as it ends, it's also a throwaway. By the time it's over, it's already fallen from your memory.

The franchise has fallen and it can't get up.

The product of a vague and unconvincing plot, the violence here is simply and purely awful.

Angel Has Fallen feels like it was cobbled together with cliched action scenes and circumstances overused by the once-popular TV series 24.

Hollywood needs to stop force-feeding the audience dry sequels and provide fresh new stories that give the moviegoers value for money.

Every once and awhile, a little junk food cinema is good for the soul.

Now, this is a poorly made film, but can a good film be made according to this moral framework?

How can you pair Gerard Butler and Nick Nolte in a booby-trap-filled compound and not just let them run wild for two hours?
