Antoine Fuqua’s testosterone-fuelled thriller contrives a ‘Die Hard In The White House’ scenario from an assault on Capitol Hill by heavily armed Korean terrorists who are fed up with America meddling in their affairs.

Overblown action sequences, realised with inconsistent digital trickery, guarantee a healthy three-figure body count in the opening hour.
