Angel Has Fallen Reviews

Gerard Butler takes viewers on a thrill ride as he fights for his reputation and his life.

| Feb 15, 2020

As an action-thriller with political intrigue, this movie does its job. It's Nolte who at times lifts it to another level.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 30, 2019

Angel Has Fallen is a film in search of a soul. It doesn't find it, but the effort is appreciated.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 30, 2019

Efficient B-movie trash that I enjoyed watching...I enjoyed myself, and I really hadn't expected to.

| Aug 30, 2019

It's a throwback piece of entertainment, but in the way it evaporates as soon as it ends, it's also a throwaway. By the time it's over, it's already fallen from your memory.

| Original Score: C+ | Aug 28, 2019

The franchise has fallen and it can't get up.

| Aug 26, 2019

Faults, flaws and all this supposedly final chapter in the adventures of Mike Banning got the job done as far as I was concerned.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 26, 2019

There is something odd about the way the film condemns bloodshed while revelling in trigger-happy violence.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 25, 2019

The phrase "Never bring a knife to a gunfight" is radically undermined by a sequence that goes from machine gun fight, to pistol duel, to knife fight, to fisticuffs, to homoerotic frenemy moment.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 24, 2019

The unimaginative script matches the uninspired action scenes, which are worsened by shabby computer graphics. The laziness of this franchise is apparent in the third part...

| Aug 23, 2019

The film seems to have cobbled its set pieces together from a series of close-ups edited as if by random selection.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Aug 23, 2019

The product of a vague and unconvincing plot, the violence here is simply and purely awful.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 23, 2019

Director Ric Roman Waugh's staging of the intense scenes of conflict and action is assured and exciting.

| Original Score: B- | Aug 23, 2019

There's no thrill to this thriller. Nor is there nuance to the characters.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 22, 2019

If this type of no-brow entertainment is your thing, you may find something to like in Angel Has Fallen but that doesn't mean you need what these guys are reselling.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 22, 2019

"Angel Has Fallen" plays out exactly as you would expect from a potboiler of this type. No surprises here, other than that it exists at all.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 22, 2019

It might still be passable for cable, but this series has sadly fallen into unwatchable territory.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 22, 2019

"The Fugitive," to which "Angel" owes perhaps even its rooftop finale, is a template against which this movie inevitably falls short.

| Aug 22, 2019

Butler can do more, but he's so good at doing this one thing that it has become his brand. That might be a blessing or a curse, but if it's a curse, there are worse curses.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 22, 2019

It is a doom-invoking, cathartic and strangely satisfying head-trip that's also a bit ridiculous.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 22, 2019
