There is not a single reference to “radical Islam,” but the way Barkawi and Trumbull talk, London Has Fallen’s plot is unmistakably meant to simulate a “clash of civilizations. Gerard Butler will return as Mike Banning, who really deserves a much cooler name (like maybe Cage Hardjaw), as the Sercret Service hero who saves the day amidst another global crisis. The film stars Gerard Butler, Morgan Freeman, Jada Pinkett Smith, Lance Reddick, Tim Blake Nelson, Piper Perabo, Nick Nolte, and Danny Huston. Deadline says the sequel, titled London Has Fallen, is on its way from Focus Features, and scheduled to open on October 2, 2015. When the terrorists mention it, Asher derides their justified anger as “insanity.” At one point, Banning even tells one of the terrorists to “head back to F-headistan or wherever you’re from.” (Incidentally, this racism extends to the terrorists speaking accented English the whole movie, where the European leaders are given the luxury of subtitles). Angel Has Fallen is a 2019 American action thriller film directed by Ric Roman Waugh.It is the third installment in the Has Fallen film series, following Olympus Has Fallen (2013) and London Has Fallen (2016). This blatant war crime is not only completely unsuccessful at killing Barkawi (instead inspiring his wide-scale revenge attack), it’s also never criticized or questioned. military, authorized by Asher, drone-strikes a Pakistani wedding in hopes of killing international arms dealer Aamir Barkawi (Alon Moni Aboutboul). The whole global conflict is set in motion by an opening sequence in which the U.S. They finally find a helpful MI6 agent (Charlotte Riley), and occasionally receive dispatches from Vice President Allan Trumbull, which doesn’t seem to help anyone very much but is a good excuse to get Morgan Freeman in the movie.īy casting its villain as a suspiciously ISIS-like Middle Eastern terrorist network, London Has Fallen makes itself into a political movie-but its politics are heinous. Amir Barkawi is an arms dealer who funds terrorist attacks to drive up weapons sales. embassy, all while dodging the remaining terrorists. London Has Fallen is little more than a tribute to the Good American/Bad Arab dichotomy that plagued the 90s.
They then have to make their way through the streets of London (which went from overcrowded to wasteland empty in about five minutes) to the safety of the U.S. Asher and Banning escape, but just barely. These terrorists assassinate most of these world leaders and also blow up a bunch of monuments, for some reason.
This makes them vulnerable to a sudden attack by a terrorist network that has somehow managed to infiltrate the London police force. Incredibly, London streets are not shut down or so much as cordoned off, leaving global dignitaries (accompanied by perhaps one security guard each) stuck in traffic. The English Prime Minister’s death requires all world leaders to assemble in London for a state funeral.
