Olympus Dies Hard

Funny thing about Hollywood, if someone comes up with an idea, they milk it to death. Some do better than others.  TV has several series like "Revolution" where the good old USA has been destroyed.  While watching coming attractions, the showed another Cable series getting ready to launch about the USA struggling after something that wipes them out.  Then the previews already started with Tom Cruise visiting earth again after disaster and now Will Smith has one coming out about about the same thing. He crashes on Earth 1000 years after some cosmic disaster.

Next up is attacks on the president.  I guess they know their audience. All the people wanting the press to suffer!  The next Iron Man has Air Force One attacked with the President on board. 

Today, we decided to hold off seeing Dinosaurs in 3D thinking we didn't need something that tense SO we went to see "Olympus Has Fallen".  "Jurassic Park 3D" seems like the "Smurfs" compared to this.  The body count in this story is high and deep.  It is also tense.

As for the story, actor Gerald Butler plays the Bruce Willis part. The plot is "Die Hard at the White House" but it will still keep you from relaxing.

A popcorn movie. I give it **1/2 stars.
