Will he do it, like the last two times? Or will Hollywood give up on its money-making sequel potential?
Despite the predictability, it has the prerequisite explosions, chases, and foreshadowed under a spotlight twist and turns that made it an enjoyable matinee excuse to eat popcorn and watch bad guys drop like hotdog wrappers at the carnival.
Film Critics
If you want to see leftist bias in media, you just have to look at all the examples of how far off from their reviewers are from their viewers. I use the spread as a predictor of whether I'll like a film. Big spread with audience over critics? I'm going to like it. But big spread with critics over audience? I'll usually side with audience.

![]() |
Angel Has Fallen - While this hits many leftist tropes (Anti-Military, Anti-Corporation, Good Black/Democrat President, bad guys weren't muslim extremists), reviewers only gave it 39%. Audiences gave it 93%. (-54 spread). Are reviewers just racists? Or it was still pro-American/Individual, and that was enough to hate it? |
Conclusion
Don't expect deep, or particularly believable anything in this. But if you want a good boom-boom, blow shit up, popcorn flick... this one hits many of the right notes. Oh, and watch the credits, it has quite a bit after you think the movie is over.
