Review: Angel has fallen

Butler returns for the third instalment of the "Fallen" series.  This time the plot revolves around a presidential assassination attempt and subsequent framing of Butler's character, Banning.

To add to the mix, Banning has been struggling with migraines and other medical problems picked up during his career. I rather liked this aspect as it's rare for a movie to show a character's arc like this. Usually, they carry on until they can no longer bring in the box office numbers.

The assassination attempt is quite inventively done, but the film then settles into a fairly run of the mill action thriller. There were times where I felt I was getting flashbacks to the Jack Ryan TV series.  Disappointingly, you'll likely spot the bad 'uns early on, but Nolte's character brings some much needed fun to the production.

Overall: Better than the London instalment, but let's call it done now.
