Focused heavily on action, violence, and mayhem, Antoine Fuqua's Olympus Has Fallen works within the confines of an entirely implausible scenario that sees the White House come under attack in broad daylight.  By nightfall, the building has been overrun, and the President and his staff are taken hostage by the infiltrators.  With the country in a state of uncertainty, one man looks to overcome the challenges and bring the terrorist to his knees.

I will be the first to admit that I don't always have the stomach to watch the things that got me so excited about the horror genre only a few years ago.  I feel that the Saw series, while smart and fascinating, has gone overboard as of late, and I have never been a fan of the rape/torture porn films like Hostel.  But for some reason the same rules don't apply for I Spit On Your Grave, a unique remake of the 1978 cult hit Day of the Woman which tells the story of a rape victim seeking out revenge on her assessors.
