Watch He Who Dares: Downing Street Siege For Free

good back-story, and good acting

Best movie of this year hands down!

Beautiful, moving film.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I have never seen so many mistakes in a film and I've switched it off at 21 minutes. Main character called by the rank of Major but wearing uniform of a Corporal, salutes like an American soldier and I'll stop there as luckily I've lost ½ and hour of my life not the full hour and a half that the poor people that watched it all have.

What a load of bollocks how can you mistake a rank of major when the guy is wearing Corporal stripes also square the hell away out of the medals and the gun ho salute (obviously American director) also your suppose to have your cap on when saluting, basics, but will say one thing that is probably what happens in real life the British government would do that exactly also so much anger in the so called military men not trusting a "22 sas team leader"The most honest thing in this film is when the "major Lowe" as he is name more like corporal tells the pm how people can make decisions when they have not had any experience in even battle which is pretty much correct, Owww and the bird has a fine ass in those pvc trouser yummy hahaha GET A GRIP OF THIS FILM SERIOUSLY A kinda British cheap knock off of White House has fallen least London has fallen is more interesting Regards Kevin

I don't usually write reviews, but for this very special film I'm going to make an exception.'He Who Dares: Downing Street' is by far one of the most awful films I have ever seen. It has superseded many other terrible, terrible films because it is truly, genuinely dreadful. Most bad supposedly adrenaline-fuelling, action/crime films have some redeeming features but not this one (save a few glorious seconds towards the end I will elaborate upon), some actual entertainment value, even if it's just funny to laugh at.It is no surprise that the plot is inconceivably bad, full of plot-holes and makes little sense throughout. The special effects are cringe-inducing - especially the blood whenever someone is shot, which is not infrequent in this horribly unoriginal shoot'em up - and the direction (combined with cinematography and plot) feels as if a particularly stupid 15 year old has just watched 'Die Hard' for the first time and written his own version set in Downing Street.The acting deserves particular recognition. The almost universally miscast actors are reliably wooden, irritating and make already poorly written characters even more unlikeable than they already were. From the (obviously) Conservative MP whose last words are to call the main villain a 'Pleb' to the main villain himself; Simon F*cking Phillips.Simon Phillips, who I last had the displeasure of watching in 'Meet the Firm: Revenge in Rio' is wholly awful. In-between bouts of not being very scary whilst threatening and murdering people he sometimes switches into 'comedian' mode, joking and wise-cracking (badly) whilst threatening and murdering people. Those few seconds of glory I mentioned before come when we witness Simon Phillips shot, not just once, but twice!!Unoriginal, awful, just bad, 1/10

Simon Phillips acting was very good along with a future star in Marissa Porter. In deed they looked to have stepped off a higher value movie.I remember the Exploding downing street door from a vine on the internet some time ago related to safety in film production. But it did look bloody good.Some of the writing was clever but it looked like a first draft not much research done.if the production team read this. please don't make a third we don't need a British die hard trilogy set at these values.If there is a next time please make sure you have a military consultant, there are plenty out there.
