MOVIE REVIEW
The White House has had a bad year. Real-life problems aside, it's been invaded twice, once in Olympus Has Fallen and again in Roland Emmerich's White House Down, a cliché-filled action film that is as stupid as it is stupid but adequately entertaining when you stop thinking about it.Read our White House Down movie review »
