Saw it.

When they can’t even get the basic fact of a senior police officer’s rank right, I find it really hard to take the film seriously.

There is a huge difference between the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police and a Chief Inspector. It’s the difference between an (Army) Captain and a full General.

Also - apparently they have magical drone technology that means a drone is always hovering over the President - even when he’s on the run in a foreign city.

And “The American embassy is surrounded by bad guys but I still have to try and take the President there.” How about an allied embassy that is not surrounded by bad guys? How about Buckingham Palace, or the Tower of London, or Clarence House, or any of the other Royal Palaces in London... any of them would let the President in... sure, you don’t know exactly who you can trust but then why do you trust the guy who said he was with the SAS?

(I did enjoy the movie, but I had to turn at least half my brain off to do so. I enjoyed Olympus Has Fallen a lot more).

I have not been able to see the whole thing yet since my wife got bored. I was just astonished to see Mooslims accurately portrayed as bad guys. I thought that was illegal?
