If you have seen two thousand American films you pretty much know the stereotypes, the heroes who become villains and villains who become heroes. The story's twists and turns and how it will end. To Wit: 'Angel Has Fallen'. The difference is ACTION. That's what we 'Muricans do BEST. You can shove most anything in the Murican face as long as it is peppered with lots of ACTION. Of course, that takes budget and that is what separates our industry from the rest of the world.

PS. Has Danny Huston EVER played a good guy? Let me know.

    Recently had a Canadian embassy official introduce a canadian film, I liked it. Don't remember the name, but do remember his acknowledgment of the indigenous peoples land that made his government possible, that was new to me.
