Extremely poor taste to release this movie in the times we live in!

I saw the trailer for this trashy movie with poor CGI today. But it wasn't just the weak CGI and weak story that put me off, it's the fact that a movie studio is actually willing to release this crap and try to make money off the possibility of terrorism we face in cities like London.

I live in London and wouldn't pay a penny to go see a movie about London being attacked by terrorists and blown up. Such poor taste. We all know the threats that have come from ISIS, do we really need to see garbage movies like this being produced? Nope!

They can't win. Someone was complaining that the first movie wasn't realistic enough, and now you're complaining that it's TOO realistic?! There will always be threat, there will always be war... and there will (and have) always been action movies. This time period is no different. If we alter our lives in any way because we don't have the stomach to carry on as always, then ISIS have won without having to do anything. You're advocating doing their work for them.

Let's not make out like London is special... 9/11 didn't stop America making terrorist movies (although it may have slowed it down) so our past experiences should not stop us. If they released it straight AFTER a major tragedy (which they would never do) then you might have a point... but you can't put everything on hold just because something MIGHT happen, somewhere; life goes on as planned.

No, YOU don't have to see it. You just don't watch it. Simple... but don't speak for everyone, that's another ISIS tactic.

What did you expect from the trailer. Had you not read the title of the movie.

But it's only London. Who cares if the city isn't an American city? No one even remembers what happened in Paris at this point.

you just mentioned the paris attack so you remember it?
Many cities,not just American ones would not function as a symbol of freedom and democracy if attacked.

Extremely poor taste to relate a movie to real life. Harden up princess. There is violence and terrorism and all sorts of atrocities in this world. Deal with it.
