    Waste of Time

    Well that's 90 minutes of my life I won't get back again. Good grief I have seen some crap films before but this tops the list, as has been said by others I will echo it, wooden acting, horrendous fight scenes, special effects that really need work.

    The Army ranks that are used are so wrong, the "hero" is a Major in the SAS and is wearing the rank of a Corporal, he is not wearing anything to denote he is a member of the SAS, Medals are wrong, not mounted right, saluting like an American and without Headdress off, doesn't happen. The Chief of the General Staff, where to start with that t**t, and the same with the "Lieutenant General" (Major) in the COBRA room. with a little bit more research and time spent this could have been a really good film, however this was a car crash on top of a train wreck flattened by a plane and then battered by a nuke just for good measure.

    As a side note, if the writer had bothered to ask either serving military or even ex-military he could have got that bit right (maybe), the same goes for the police side of things, I know it is supposed to be fiction, but at least try to make an effort to get things correct.

    If I could rate this 1 star I would

    Not sure if this movie was just simply made to launder drug money. Or maybe someone quit their job as an accountant at Tesco's because they thought they had the making of a great screen writer.

    The script - appalling

    The acting - my god; surely none of the people in this call themselves actors. The person playing the lead (I cant even be bothered to look him up on a separate tab) didn't even bother to research his own part or any background to it - obviously hoped the director would tell him everything he needed to do. The rank is wrong (he wears a Corporals rank rather than Major - Not easily confused). The salute is worse than Basil Fawlty/Gordon Brittas. Did he grow crap facial hair for the role.

    Do not waste the click of looking at the synopsis on Netflix.

    The cast and crew should be 'put down'.

    --- By the way this parody has better acting and a more solid script https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K72-9oXsG30

    This film is shocking

    This is the worst film I have ever seen, it is absolutely shocking, the filmography is terrible and so are the effects. The language is bad and excessive and the plot is appalling. I had to pay £5.50 to watch this, biggest waste of money in my entire life. All of the characters are unconvincing, the villain is a chubby loser who is about as threatening as a Mr blobby, and the hero is an unshaven numpty. The villain seems to be a mixture of the Michelin man and sad unfunny failing comedian. The fight scenes in this film look like something a 6 year old child could put together in a stop motion project. The blood effects are worse than anything I have ever seen before. It is so unbelievably bad, I don't know who let this film get published but the people who put it together are a bunch of clowns. Do not watch this film

    What a joke

    The worst film i've watched, the acting was horrendous, the story line was copied from other films, the entire film was packed with inaccuracies and the set looked more like Downton Abbey that 10 Downing Street. Don't waste your time on this film at all, it was frustrating to watch and a complete embarrassment for everyone involved. I'm surprised to learn that the film had a budget of £3million to be honest, it looked like it was made by a sixth form media student with no knowledge of the military in the UK at all. There were moments in the film where i found myself laughing at the awful quality of production and i can't imagine the actors and actresses in this movie will be successful in the future if this is the best they can do! What an absolute joke!

    Oh dear oh dear....

    Utterly appalling film with the effects of a Christmas toy thrown in. Not only has "No 10 has Fallen", but the cast, the acting and production has fallen! There is something about English films that we just call pull off like the Yanks. The wooden acting for starters and the stereotyping of English government official and the army. All the entire budget went into the odd bang, bit of tomato ketchup for blood and some real poor portrayal of the SAS. I ain't no SAS specialist but I was in the army and it's all just so badly put together. Scenes were badly constructed, dialogue was awful and those crap camera shake effects.

    It would of been better if they waited for a few months to save up a bit more money for the budget!
