Dir: Roland Emmerich
2013
*
Typical, you wait around for ages for a stupid over the top action mess about the White House being taken over by two dimensional terrorists and then two come along at once. The scene in which Roland Emmerich name checks one of his own films was enough to make me want to throw things at the screen, the fact that he kept having to remind us that the president was Black was something else. I'm surprised he didn't have him save the world while incorporating a magnificent basket ball slam-dunk (he was wearing the right footwear after all!). Some have pointed out that this isn't technically a disaster movie, I have to disagree, it's one of the biggest disasters of 2013.
