It's a film filled with a formulaic script, loud and badly filmed action and uninteresting characters. You could say that Morgan Freeman and Gerard Butler deliver fine performances, but... for Christ's sake, does that even matter? When a movie so unoriginal as this one wastes 2 hours of your precious life, do you even care whether the actors were good?

This is the sort of nonsense that should not have been greenlighted.

Garbage.

Loud action sequel to the first 2 'Fallen' films is instantly forgettable but will at least keep you awake. Poor dialogue will have you shaking your head or laughing despite the almost compelling plot hidden by fast, loud, and violentLoud action sequel to the first 2 'Fallen' films is instantly forgettable but will at least keep you awake. Poor dialogue will have you shaking your head or laughing despite the almost compelling plot hidden by fast, loud, and violent action sequences. And who can resist Manning finding his father Clay, played by Nick Nolte, who is given too little screen time.… Expand

Completely terrible thriller that somehow manages to be even less entertaining than the previous two. Awful acting, boring action and an eye-rolling plot.

Film prevedibile, pieno di clichè e con una regia ai limiti dell'orrido. Tra scavalcamenti di campo e scene d'azione confusionarie e incomprensibili Angel Has fallen è uno dei peggiori (se non il peggiore) film dell'anno.

Nick Nolte plays a grumpy old guy who blows up a score of bad dudes in a confrontation on a mountaintop that is a somewhat reminiscent of the first Rambo movie. That is the only fun part of the movie and, alas, very short. It is why I gave itNick Nolte plays a grumpy old guy who blows up a score of bad dudes in a confrontation on a mountaintop that is a somewhat reminiscent of the first Rambo movie. That is the only fun part of the movie and, alas, very short. It is why I gave it a three, instead of a two.
There is also another guy in this movie, played by Butler. He is an ailing secret service guy past his prime. Despite that he kicks the butts of men half his age, and outwits everyone. Not because he is smart, but because he has plot armor and plot brains and everyone else is shockingly dumb or incompetent. This is how you write a story when you are unable to make a smart guy do smart things. He basically just runs to some place and survives everything with nary a scratch. At one moment he actually runs into a room where a bad guy has the drop on him. But the bad guy waits for Butler to shoot him.
There are so few surprises that it actually surprised me. It takes half a braincell to figure out who the evil guy is behind it all, how the story would develop and how it would end. It was so unsurprising that I actually braced for a twist of some kind, but once the bad guy's voice was being warped when talking to the second main bad guy, I knew it was as bad as I thought it would be. This was just done for the audience.
The biggest surprise for me is that three people wrote the script. It is amazing that you need three writers to write a by the numbers story with characters that have no depth or arch and a story that is as shallow as politician's promise.
A terrible movie.… Expand

Formulaic, Hollywood pap tied up in a formulaic, Hollywood bow. The people you think are the bad guys, are... the people you think will be redeemed, will be... all in the most predictable, mind-numbing, contrived, explosion-filled wayFormulaic, Hollywood pap tied up in a formulaic, Hollywood bow. The people you think are the bad guys, are... the people you think will be redeemed, will be... all in the most predictable, mind-numbing, contrived, explosion-filled way possible. If you like all that, then this movie is for you, but I can't stand it. I gave it a 2 instead of 1 because of production values and a couple of brief moments that didn't feel like the actors were just completely phoning it in. Honestly, just a waste of time.… Expand
