#CAST OF WHITE HOUSE DOWN SERIES#

However, it is important to remember that White House Down was crafted for Channing Tatum to don a tight vest and punch, kick, cut and open fire at everything that moves and as long as youвЂ™re okay with that, White House Down wonвЂ™t let you down.A synopsis reads: 'Essex Police initially believed that Sheila, who had mental health problems, had murdered her own family before turning the gun on herself. If youвЂ™re an action junkie and a fan of the genre, as I sometimes find myself to be, this film might be a good option for you. The film includes some pretty high-on-adrenaline stunts and makes good use of every clichГ© that comes with the genre.

Aside from a series of explosions (which were severely cool, by the way), the film is held together by the witty banter between Foxx and Tatum because the script, otherwise, is highly predictable. White House Down ends up in the line of fire for peddling liberal propaganda.Д«ut personally, any anti-war, pro-peace propaganda - liberal or conservative - should be just fine in any film, of any genre. Thankfully, you wonвЂ™t hear much of it over the sounds of gunfire and explosions. It is only music used for the sake of it. Speaking of one dimensional, the film's soundtrack isn't even remotely close to resemble a background score. A character that one would have liked to see more of is Maggie GyllenhaalвЂ™s Special Agent Carol Finnerty, who comes off as a tad one dimensional. However, most of the reel time belongs to Channing Tatum, who goes all-out macho military man on the terrorists who hold his daughter hostage. Old Emily King, who comes off as the most mature member of the cast.ДЇoxxвЂ™s cool-cat-President act is a little hard to believe but enjoyable, nevertheless. The terroristsвЂ™ real target is President James Sawyer, whose determination to end AmericaвЂ™s longstanding war in the Middle East lands him at the centre of a coup d'Г©tat and the only man who can save the President (and all of America, by extension) from the diabolic invasion is - drum roll, please - John Cale!ДЄlthough White House Down relies heavily on the compelling chemistry between Tatum and Foxx, it is Joey King, the actress who plays 11-year When Emily goes to the ladiesвЂ™ room, John has no clue that his daughter will be taken hostage by terrorists who are attacking the White House. Though he doesnвЂ™t make the cut, he lies to Emily and takes her for a tour of the White House, where Emily meets her hero - US President James Sawyer (Jamie Foxx).

To win his politically-aware, White House-obsessed daughter over, John applies for a position with the Secret Service. Staying true to the tough guy formula, White House Down stars Channing Tatum as US Capitol Police officer John Cale, your friendly neighbourhood divorced ex-army man with a pre-teen daughter Emily, who thinks her father isnвЂ™t cool enough.

Roland EmmerichвЂ™s White House Down highlights the perfect paradox - a highly political story packaged in a harebrained action flick.Д¬oming from the producers of Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow, White House Down borrows heavily from cult-status action films such as Die Hard, Air Force One and True Lies. White House Down works because of Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx's chemistry and its action sequences, writes Paloma Sharma.
