New York Post -
You couldn’t ask for a more fun summer popcorn movie than White House Down.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
An action thriller that doesn’t know when to quit. For the most part, though, it remains preposterously entertaining.
|
|
Variety -
Itself owing much to such lone-man-of-action hallmarks as “Die Hard” and “Speed,” this welcome throwback to an earlier, more generously entertaining era of summer blockbusters delivers a wide array of close-quarters combat and large-scale destruction, all grounded in an immensely appealing star turn by Channing Tatum and ace support from imperiled POTUS Jamie Foxx.

Entertainment Weekly -
Skip it, and you'll be depriving yourself of one of the summer's most satisfyingly stupid pleasures.

At best, White House Down is a sure-fire way to kill two hours, if not countless brain cells.
