Un film qui satisfait le spectateur en offrant au protagoniste principal la possibilité d'infliger aux terroristes non pas une, mais au moins quatre blessures graves au couteau. Mentalement au niveau de Fast & Furious, mais sans recul. Les effets spéciaux, importants pour le public cible du film, sont seulement de qualité moyenne. Le charisme de Gerard Butler et une scène de fusillade efficace en un seul plan, juste avant la fin, l'empêchent de devenir insupportable à regarder.

Butler roolzz. London Has Fallen is a weaker little brother to a good part one. A conflict with Korea is lacking (both in reality and in the movie) and the terrorist villain isn’t demonic enough. Occasional serious moments rather subdue the bloody fun when Butler stabs his adversaries. Also the contrast between future dad and killer worse than the terrorists themselves is a little out of place here. But it’s fun. Fun for its naivety. The screenplay copies some B-movie hits from the nineties and gives them a new suit, but copies it too hastily, without caring whether it makes sense or not. But I would really welcome the next part with a better screenwriting team. I was smiling from ear to ear while watching.

Solid sequel. London Has Fallen has a very dynamic and intense pace, where you breathe in at the beginning and out at the end. The attack on London itself is very stylish and destructive, and I was pleasantly surprised that anyone from a burger vendor to an ambulance driver can be a terrorist. At times I was bothered by the CGI in some of the explosions, but it's all saved by the uncompromising Gerard Butler, who is in such form that he takes out an entire Delta Force unit single-handedly and knifes the terrorists in a stealthy “Splinter Cell”-like rendition, all of which I could only marvel at, with clear camerawork, a perfect soundtrack and almost no editing. At times, you'll be delighted by the smile-inducing quips from Butler's mouth or the emotional scenes packed with tension that will bring a tear to your eye. As far as American patriotism is concerned, it is of course in great excess here and I am probably one of the few who doesn't mind, on the contrary!! The perfect entertaining Yummy. 80%.

This film has ad absurdum motifs from the past, whose dubious ideological underpinnings I wouldn't worry about provided they weren't hiding behind interchangeable action that we’ve seen a thousand times before. The film begs to be part of the A-movie class through its cast but limps on both feet due to the abilities of the production team.

For the whole time I was watching this crazy movie I was wondering what it would be like if the main character was played by, for example, Steven Segal instead of Gerard Butler. And you know what? I might have liked it more. With this cast London Has Fallen isatotal crazy trip which actors like Butler, Freeman or Eckhart don’t deserve. The director is devastating London, nothing makes sense, there is shooting everywhere. And you don’t want that in an action movie with this kind of actors.
