Downing Street Down

Ever been sat at a bar and struck up a conversation with some social reject who swears he used to be in the SAS? When most likely the closest he ever got to the SAS was listening to an audiobook of an Andy McNab novel.

This is a film made by that guy, and it's about as believable as his barfly stories. Every single aspect of this is woeful.

The first 20-30 mins are nothing but a muddled recap of the previous film in the series, which I've had the good fortune of not seeing. Once the story finally begins, it's just one wooden scene after another with jarring video effects thrown in, trying (and failing) to make the on-screen action remotely interesting.

If you're even contemplating this as a dumb-but-fun action film -- don't. There's maybe 10 mins of action in the whole thing, and it's appallingly bad.

Walk away and go see a documentary on the Iranian Embassy siege, or many of the other fine drama-docs on the SAS that portray them as they are, and not this insult to their name.

What a load of **** Terrible cinematography, acting and generally a waste of time The person who directed it does not have a clue about the SAS or security procedures and protocols in the UK. The ranks are all to pot as well. The hero "Lowe" is called major yet wears a rank of sergeant just gives you an idea of how terrible this really is. The filming of the choreography (Fighting scenes you can actually see that they did not make contact). was terrible. Don't waste your time watching it. The same goes for the prequel to this film. Effects used just gave me a headache is there really any need to zoom in an out as if it was video for a pop song badly edited. Terrible!

Well that's 90 minutes of my life I won't get back again. Good grief I have seen some crap films before but this tops the list, as has been said by others I will echo it, wooden acting, horrendous fight scenes, special effects that really need work.

The Army ranks that are used are so wrong, the "hero" is a Major in the SAS and is wearing the rank of a Corporal, he is not wearing anything to denote he is a member of the SAS, Medals are wrong, not mounted right, saluting like an American and without Headdress off, doesn't happen. The Chief of the General Staff, where to start with that t**t, and the same with the "Lieutenant General" (Major) in the COBRA room. with a little bit more research and time spent this could have been a really good film, however this was a car crash on top of a train wreck flattened by a plane and then battered by a nuke just for good measure.

As a side note, if the writer had bothered to ask either serving military or even ex-military he could have got that bit right (maybe), the same goes for the police side of things, I know it is supposed to be fiction, but at least try to make an effort to get things correct.

Utterly appalling film with the effects of a Christmas toy thrown in. Not only has "No 10 has Fallen", but the cast, the acting and production has fallen! There is something about English films that we just call pull off like the Yanks. The wooden acting for starters and the stereotyping of English government official and the army. All the entire budget went into the odd bang, bit of tomato ketchup for blood and some real poor portrayal of the SAS. I ain't no SAS specialist but I was in the army and it's all just so badly put together. Scenes were badly constructed, dialogue was awful and those crap camera shake effects.

It would of been better if they waited for a few months to save up a bit more money for the budget!

Never thought a movie could be this bad.Actually the worst movie that i have ever seen. I sure hope that this movie is nominated for the Rasberry awards - it would clean up at the awards. Worst acting, worst scenes, worst screen play, worst plot. The only upside is that you have to keep watching as you don't believe how bad the acting is.The filming of the choreography (Fighting scenes you can actually see that they did not make contact). was terrible. Don't waste your time watching it. The same goes for the prequel to this film. Effects used just gave me a headache is there really any need to zoom in an out as if it was video for a pop song badly edited. Terrible!
