3.5 stars
Yet a third film this year showing a White House takeover. This time, Channing Tatum saves the day and Jamie Foxx is miscast as the president. Maggie Gyllenhaal and James Woods star as trusted Secret Service, and the talented Jason Clarke (Zero Dark Thirty, Lawless, Great Gatsby) plays one of the bad guys. Also, Joey King (Crazy, Supid, Love) plays Tatum’s little girl who is also endangered in the takeover. This film is pretty similar, but not as well done as Olympus Has Fallen but it sure beats G.I. Joe: Retaliation as far as White House takeovers. Some fun, mindless violence and action.
