Good gracious, was this bad. Dumbest movie I've seen in a while. The entire setup is a slog of one unbelievable situation topping the next. One minute Butler is saving the President from drone strikes that somehow, mystifyingly elude the President's detail, the next--he's framed by some of the dumbest guys on earth that still somehow outsmart everyone else. The biggy bad guy reveal at the end is so clichéd it almost seemed like a parody. Clearly, this franchise "has fallen" and can't get up.

A really great action movie. And i def enjoy watching Gerald so thats a plus. Id recommend to both women & men that like nonstop action with a bit of touching family reunion tossed in. And to have Morgan Freeman as President was a great touch. I love his acting. It did take me a few minutes to realize who "dad" was though.
