Olympus Has Fallen (2013) - Antoine Faque

Gerard Butler is a genuinely cool guy. Love a good Brit playing an American hero. Makes me feel good about my country! Yay! Also, this is a really good film, and very relevant with the recent North Korea crisis.

Red Dawn (2012) - Dan Bradley

Before you all wonder, all one of you that reads these anyway, I haven't seen the original (1984) - John Milius. I know of it, we have it in work, and I know it's the Soviets rather than the North Koreans that are invading. I liked it, I thought it was very good. It does make me wonder though, what would a British filmmaker have done differently? In our country, I think we wouldn't be allowed to make this movie: calling another nation an enemy and inferring their weapons are to take us out. Just a thought.
