Angel Has Fallen shows that you can’t keep a good man down, and Gerard Butler (The Vanishing) returns as Secret Service Kick-Ass Head-Kicker Mike Banning, following 2013’s superb Olympus Has Fallen and 2016’s even better London Has Fallen. This time round, it goes a bit ‘Jack Bauer’ as Banning is framed for the attempted assassination […]

Hunter Killer – I can’t say it’s ‘Die Hard on a submarine’, since (a) it’s not, and (b) that was claimed by the so-so Under Siege in 1992. You don’t watch Gerard Butler action films for their Oscar-winning scripts, but for the bangs and crashes. And both Olympus Has Fallen and London Has Fallen were […]
