I saw this as a "preview" movie this week. It officially comes out next Friday. Very intense, lots of violence. The North Koreans take the president and other officials hostage inside the White House. It was hard for me to buy - lots of protocol breaches that would not happen in real life. Some good acting by Morgan Freeman & Gerard Butler, but the actor who plays the president (Aaron Eckhart) was horrible! Bad acting and bad casting since he never seemed "presidential". Overall, too much shooting and punching and kicking for me!
