White House Down (Amazon Instant Video) The new president has decided to end war in the Middle East by removing all troops from the area, and asking all the powers there (Iran, Syria, etc.) to come together and make peace. Singing kumbaya is optional. An evil chief of the Secret Service plots to have the White House taken over by his own army of racists, disgruntled military and a computer geek. They and their weapons get into the White House without a problem, take down everyone, hold hostages, and the entire American military do nothing but stand outside the White House and watch. It's unclear exactly what these invaders want, but they're killing a lot of people, making an enormous amount of noise and doing a lot of damage. They supposedly want to capture the President alive, but keep shooting at him with big guns. The computer geek hacks into a presidential computer, which supposedly gives access to every rocket launcher under U.S. command. This has been compared to Die Hard by other reviewers, but I love that movie and this aint that. The humor is missing, as well as the suspense and excitement. This reads more like a badly written political statement. I'm a Democrat and I found this idiocy embarrassing. Any resemblance to living politicians is obviously intentional. The President is our Ghandi, so guess who the bad guys are? *spoiler alert* By the end of the movie it's stil unclear why they needed the president alive, and Iran agrees to a peace treaty since the U.S. asked so nicely.
