Olympus has fallen kuya

I like action movies when they are done right. It doesn't matter to me if its a one-man army like Rambo or a team like the Expendables. Olympus has Fallen, to me has gotten it right. It stars Gerard Butler a member of the Secret Service who goes to save the president who is being held hostage after the White House is taken over by terrorists. The action was cool, so were most of the effects. But too much of the gunfire looked like out of a video game. Angela Basset acted well as the head of the Secret Service. And so did Aasron Eckhart who played the president. The action was pretty intense and almost non-stop. The interaction between Butler and the presidents young son was funny, but at the same time real. Too many times the interaction between kid and adult actors seems forced. One thing that annoys me is that there was an extra scene at the end of the credits according to Wikipedia. It was a pretty significant one too! Oh well, guess I'll have to check it out when it comes out on dvd.
