Film ● Mini-Review: London Has Fallen
Essentially the same as the first film but in a bigger setting. A solid follow-up which is rare considering that sequels are usually weaker.

Glaring stupidities are a turn-off. Wasted opportunity with Milla Jovovich and Pierce Brosnan.

It is well-produced but is not particularly memorable. The first film is the best and the most satisfying.

Slow and uneventful, even for noir. The plotting and pacing could use some improvement.

Film ● Mini-Review: 3 Days to Kill
Some nice set pieces initially, and nicely shot with decent sound editing too. Not bad but lacks wow factor and not particularly memorable.

It’s not quite Taken the Whole Plane and it’s a better film than the trailer suggests. Just don’t expect it to be great.
