Olympus Has Fallen has the better cast by far.

That said, both these movies can fuck off.

Yeah, and I like/own Tears of the Sun, but the premise for both movies sounds lame. Maybe I'll rent it after it comes out on DVD, but White House Down hasn't got a prayer.

I like Antoine Fuqua. Shooter was a real good action movie, Training Day we all know, and Brooklyn's Finest was a terrific movie. This looks okay. Not a summer movie, but maybe a good March flick.
