Plot Summary:When the White House (Secret Service Code: "Olympus") is captured by a terrorist mastermind and the President is kidnapped, disgraced former Presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped within the building. As our national security team scrambles to respond, they are forced to rely on Banning's inside knowledge to help retake the White House, save the President, and avert an even bigger disaster.

This movie has Aaron Eckhart (who I loved in Battle: Los Angeles)playing the president and Gerard Butler as the movies central character a presidential bodyguard no longer on active duty and strikes me as an action movie in the same ilk as Die Hard and Under Siege (only in the White house and with out the now pregnant looking Steven Seagal)Two movies that are proper action classics and rightly so.
Will deliver the same? I truly hope so. Come march 22nd we shall all have the opportunity to find out.
