Episode 08: Olympus Has Fallen




Deconstructing Movies Podcast show

Summary: Netflix kept recommending it to us, so we watched—and deconstructed—Olympus Has Fallen. This movie bears a striking resemblance to every other action movie you've ever seen or heard of, especially White House Down, Die Hard, In the Line of Fire, Commando, Red Dawn, and Kiss the Girls. Join us as we discuss the Cerberus doomsday device, the logistics of relocating 37,000 troops in an hour, and the battery life of Gerard Butler's bluetooth headset. It's a fun one, you guys. If you like what you hear, please rate us on iTunes. If you don't, please leave scathing notes in our comments section. We have fruit baskets and apology letters standing by.
