In White House Down, Capitol Policeman John Cale (Channing Tatum) has just been denied his dream job with the Secret Service of protecting President James Sawyer (Jamie Foxx). Not wanting to let down his little girl with the news, he takes her on a tour of the White House, when the complex is overtaken by a heavily armed paramilitary group. Now, with the nation\u2019s government falling into chaos and time running out, it\u2019s up to Cale to save the president, his daughter, and the country. The film is directed by Roland Emmerich, written by James Vanderbilt, and produced by Bradley J. Fischer, Harald Kloser, James Vanderbilt, Larry Franco, and Laeta Kalogridis.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
That’s probably the only way I’d go see this particular movie from what I’ve heard of the plot. I wonder when Hollywood is going to have the villains portrayed by actual villainous people instead of drawing on the worn out cliche rich white guys. And the scariest part of the movie is that Jamie Foxx is the President. But, hey, it’s free on July 4th only, so go have fun. I guess you should call your theater ahead of time to ask if they’re participating in the dealie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
