Fallen and Can't Get Up (ANGEL HAS FALLEN, 2019) - a podcast by Buchman and Oren

Today we take a look at a fake president played by Morgan Freeman. No, not that fake president. The OTHER fake president played by Morgan Freeman, in 2019's ANGEL HAS FALLEN, the second sequel to OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN. Gerard Butler is back as the ultimate secret service agent, Freeman gets a nice promotion into the oval, and...well, that's about all the characters returning from the first two movies. 

 

This time Jada Pinkett Smith, Tim Blake Nelson, Danny Huston, and Nick Nolte join Butler and Freeman as America finds itself, once again, facing an existential crisis that only one person can halt.

 

Why did we skip LONDON HAS FALLEN? (Same POTUS as the first movie that we already covered!) Why does no one in this movie remember the heroic deeds of Gerard Butler in the first two movies? (Because then the plot wouldn't work!) How does the Secret Service keep refilling its ranks so quickly after ALL of them keep getting killed? (ZipRecruiter?)
