No, you don’t need to have seen “Olympus Has Fallen” and/or “London Has Fallen” to understand the eminently disposable third chapter of the Mike Banning chronicles. It’s not that complicated: Gerard Butler is an elite Secret Service agent with a heart of gold and a face of raw meat, he’s saved the free world a couple of times over the last few years, and he’s forced to do it again. On the contrary, the only prerequisite for enjoying “Angel Has Fallen” — or at least for appreciating the essence of its potential appeal — is a fond nostalgia for old-school action movies.
You know, the steroidal stuff that Hollywood churned out back when men were men, explosions were the only…
This series finally falls victim to the current trend of psychoanalyzing its indestructible hero. Lord knows why anyone cares just what makes James Bond or Ethan Hunt tick, let alone a dude who just likes to eat bad guys like Mike Banning. Anyway the rest is competent but completely unremarkable. Lacks the delicious nasty streak and Cannon Group ripoff vibe of LONDON, and Butler doesn't even get close to going over the top, which is a real stunner considering he's got a lot of screen time in this with Nick Nolte.

I liked the parts where fists punched and guns went boom but I found the parts where people talked to be excruciating pain that I'll never get past.
Äh...wer sind sie und was haben sie mit der „Fallen“-Reihe gemacht.
„Olympus has Fallen“ war...nett. Allerhöchstens. Warum da allen Ernstes jemand einen zweiten Teil drehen wollte, lässt sich vermutlich nur damit erklären, dass Gerard Butler für nen Appel und‘n Ei am Set aufschlägt und die DVD-Auswertung ein paar Dollar über Breakeven in die Kasse gespült hat. „London has Fallen“ hat dann zwar mehr Tamtam gemacht, war ansonsten aber natürlich direkt ein ganzes Stück schlechter. Wer braucht da allen Ernstes einen dritten Teil?
Die Antwort lautet: „Angel has Fallen“ und ist...äh...gut? Was ist da denn auf einmal los? Ric Roman Waugh ist los. Der Mann, der mit „Felon“ und zuletzt „Shotcaller“ zwei phantastische Knastthriller abgeliefert hat (ernsthaft: schaut die!), holt aus…
Here’s the main point I want you to understand about Angel Has Fallen: Look at the budget, around 40 million USD. With this money, a highly-entertaining-theatrical-deserving-B-movie-action-macho-man movie was made. The excitement and action, come close or even beat, big name action movies which cost over 200 million USD. While I highly enjoy both films, you could make 5 Angels Has Fallen for the cost of 1 Hobbs & Shaw. You wonder why we keep getting Fallen movies? They make big profit without putting up a lot of up-front cash.
Gerard Butler once again goes Gamer on a lot of baddies. However, this time it isn’t a Die Hard concept flick, but a game of Tag / Chase / Fugitive. Morgan Freeman plays the…
worth it for the 5 minutes of nick nolte as gerry butler’s dad hiding out in a log cabin yelling about nam but the transition to grounded and inoffensive conspiracy actioner does a lot of damage to the entertainment value of this franchise. try as they might with some of the stickier kills nothing in this quite slaps like London Has Fallen's full out psycho mike "im thirsty as fuck" banning, a movie that opens with the US droning a civilian wedding in pakistan and ends with mike brutally torturing people for fun while yelling about america as a thousand year reich.
The Fugitive Has Fallen in the hands of Gerry Buts and his G-Base production company. not a good movie by any means but it does contain dozens of shots of people being flung through the air via big fiery explosions. the hospital siege climax is actually pretty bangin' too. nut job nic nolte the mvp but he isn't in it nearly enough. it also unfortunately takes itself way too seriously like Olympus previously did. what a shame. and one last thing, that president morgan freeman & president vladimir putin photoshopped tv footage has aged rather horribly 😂

Mike Banning’s SKYFALL, only instead of a STRAW DOGS showdown in an old English house, you get Nolte going Full ‘Nam as Mike Sr. out in the West Virginia woods against a bunch of Blackwater types (don’t worry, that’s only the halfway mark). Easily the most “respectable” entry into the FALLEN series, though I’m unsure I ever needed Banning to be humanized. That said, there‘s a few killer set pieces (including a whopper of a tactical firefight at the end) and Butler is just as meaty and physical an action performer as ever. I really love this damn series, and am glad it basically got a glorified airport novel ending. Seems fitting.
The third installment of the Fallen series, directed by Ric Roman Waugh (of Shot Caller) made a satisfying, entertaining action flick.
I liked those drone attacks and the final scene. The father of Mike Banning sequence was good too. Better than London Has Fallen.
Yes, It has some cliche moments like the FBI always goes against the one who is right (saw in so many films), some Shooter moments and many more. Yet I find it entertaining and waiting to see more of Mike Banning.
This third instalment in the Fallen series, directed by Ric Roman Waugh and starring Gerard Butler as Mike Banning, is overflowing with destructive regurgitated set-pieces, frequently witnessed in more adequate movies. Butler has had three movies to cultivate the character of Banning, but he continues to be nothing more than a ridiculous jollification of masculinity who smashes his way out of every impossible situation. The supporting characters are paper-thin, and the narrative manages to produce no excitement; it's clear that all involved have run out of rewarding ideas.

Angel Has Fallen had me worried from the start. The first trailer was bad, the marketing (as a whole) has been lackluster and the fact that this “franchise” did not need another movie had me concerned. It’s honesty not a bad movie which is shocking enough; but it is so predictable, bland and generic that I can’t give my full recommendation. Who steals this movie? That man is goes by the name of Nick Nolte and he is everything you want him to be. I said this in my review but I honestly don’t even know if he knew he was in the movie. I think they went out and found…
Gerry B is at it again! I will admit that these movies are a guilty pleasure of mine. I honestly don't know what took me to long to watch this movie. I liked the first 2 but I guess it slipped through the cracks. I know these are not the best movies in the world but I like the action. Nick Nolte was a nice surprise. I forgot he was in this and he was honestly the best part. I hope they keep making these movies because I'll keep watching.
My favorite moment / scene: Can it be anything but Clay Banning (Nick Nolte) blowing everybody up and Mike Banning's (Gerard Butler) reactions.
Side Note: I think it is amazing that no matter what random movie you watch someone else has recently watched it on Letterboxd.
