And automatically makes me intrigued.

To sum up: This is a pro-American rah-rah movie with tons of action and explosions. The North Koreans are the bad guys, so naturally there are no grey areas. IGN gave it a 7.5/10.

Judging by previews alone, I'll be very, very surprised if it turns out to be a good movie.

As an unrelated side note, this movie is another product of the booming Shreveport movie industry. They built the White House and everything!

If one were so inclined, he could go to the movies this weekend for a Shreveport-filmed movie double feature - Snitch and Olympus Has Fallen. If one were so inclined.

I hated that movie.

The only Shreveport-filmed movie I've liked so far (that I know of) is Mr. Brooks.

ETA: Sorry for de-railing. Just can't contain my Port City pride.

This movie looks like Die Hard/Under Siege in the White House and there is nothing wrong with that kind of good fun. Will watch

March films just have to not suck to be good.

If you can go to the theater in January to April and see something that isn't garbage, that is a pretty good trip to the movies in that season.
