    I'd say OHF.

    Air Force One is alright, it's not a bad movie... but it's not a memorable one either. Considering it starred Ford and Oldman, it SHOULD HAVE BEEN a lot better than it was.

    White House Down was a steaming pile of shit. It was a cheesy, Pg-13, pop corn movie for families.

    Olympus Has Fallen was a lot darker, more graphic/violent. Gerard Butler played a good bad ass. Channing Tatum can't play a compelling bad ass.

    Don't ever again mention White House Down in the same breath as Olympus has Fallen.

    Honestly... if I was a studio executive, and somebody came to me with, "So here's our idea... Jamie Foxx is the President, and Channing Tatum is Secret Service..."

    "Nope, I've heard enough! NEXT!"

    'The unthinkable happens when heavily armed and highly trained terrorists launch a bold daytime attack on the White House. The building is overrun, and President Benjamin Asher (Aaron Eckhart) and his staff are taken hostage. Luckily for Asher, former presidential security officer Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) is on the scene. With time running out, it's up to Banning to locate Asher's son before the extremists do and rescue the president before his captors unleash their ultimate plan.'

    Oh, wait:

    'Capitol police officer John Cale (Channing Tatum) has just been denied his dream job of protecting President James Sawyer (Jamie Foxx) as a member of the Secret Service. Not wanting to disappoint his young daughter with the bad news, Cale takes her on a tour of the White House. While he and his daughter are there, a heavily armed paramilitary group attacks and seizes control. As the nation's government dissolves in chaos, only Cale can save his daughter, the president and the country.'


    Oh, it might interest you two fucktards further that these both got almost exactly the same reviews and scores off various media and movie review sites.




    As you were, cunts.

    Yes one is a copycat of the other but you can't compare them in terms of quality

    It's telling that all reviews (except yours, naturally, lol) have them at similar ratings:
    IMDB
    Rotten Tomatoes
    MetaCritic


    etc, etc
