After the death of the British prime minister, the world's most powerful leaders gather in London to pay their respects. Without warning, terrorists unleash a devastating attack that leaves the city in chaos and ruins.

If only.....

I mean. just do the first bit.

Is this another one of your drive by postings where you create the thread and then disappear? :)

Well I suppose it is in the Entertainment section, so fair point ..

I can't flipping wait, the first one was epic and is the perfect action film. I am waiting for Odeon to update the website tomorrow so I can book my ticket for Saturday.

that is a fantastic idea. The cineworld in Nottingham have got an imax screen, I could go and see it there and catch some lunch beforehand.

Edit: just checked and it looks like standard 2d only, defo no imax :(

IMAX films are shown in 2D.
oh, the only ones I have ever seen were Gravity (in 3D) and five or six wildlife/science films at the Science Museum in London which are all in 3D. I have just checked and Cineworld defo aren't doing it in their imax screen.

I have just watched Olympus Has Fallen again on bluray in surround sound (the helicopters sound awesome) so I am ready and excited for tomorrow.

I went to see Interstellar on imax as well but i cant remember whether that was 2d or 3d. Gravity sure was amazing though.

The BBC tore into it yesterday as being more wooden than the puppets in Team America, and with CGI even game producers would not dare use anymore.

I honestly couldn't give a **** what the BBC think. When the BBC can learn to make decent tv series then they can have an opinion on what everyone else makes. I am leaving in a mo to go and see it so I'll let you know what I think when I get back.

Personally l don't listen to reviewers that much as many of them think too much of their opinions.

And they often go OTT in their praise or criticism just to create a bit of drama and get quoted in another paper/magazine/article.

I enjoyed the first one and will go in to this the same as I did with that one. Not a lot but a decent enjoyable action movie.

It is really good, not as good as the first one but still excellent for a sequel. It is completely unrealistic as multiple failings happened at every level both for the US and UK so there is no way that kind of thing would ever happen but it was still a cracking film and I have already booked my ticket to go and see it again on Wednesday :)
