White House Downnnn!!!

Mutha Fucka!!!!!

This should have been called Die Hard:  White House Mother Fucking Down... Bitch.

I'm not even going to try and compare Channing Tatum (man his parents must have hated him) to the legendary Bruce Willis... but hey... you gotta give him points for trying.  This definitely has a similar feel to the franchise.

As Human Traffic would say... Absolute cheese on toast BOLLOCKS but goddamn I hate to admit it was bit of fun.   Directed by Roland Emmerich who gave us that beautiful piece of cinema - Independence Day but since then has been pretty disappointing with shit like Day After Tomorrow and 2012... bleahhh..

I hate to admit it but as my tastes 'mature' and I enjoy more artsy stuff... I still get sucked into action porn like this.  If  I was to go in blind I would have said directed by Michael 'The Mother Fucking' Bay for sure...

Don't really know what else to say about it really.  The usual story, the usual characters, huuuuuge mother fucking special effects budget.   The best acting award goes to the young daughter... Tatum and Foxx take notes boys.  (Just kidding Jamie.. you were a'ight in Ray and definitely Unchained)

Can't forget Maggie Gyllenhaal though...anyone who has seen Secretary will know what I'm talking about.  Yizzles.

Anyway, as far as big budget action goes this certainly does the trick.  It doesn't belong with the greats but it's definitely a decent bit of eye candy.

7/10

P.S - Wine intake was quite high for this one so sober viewers maybe take a point or three off :)

P.P.S - Apologies for all the 'Mother Fuckers'...  I think I just really wanted Jamie Foxx playing the President to spout it off a few times.  Never happened by my count :(  What is the world coming to?
