I think that "White House Down" and "Olympus Has Fallen" were both the greatest action/disaster films of all-time and they were also both of my favorite action/disaster films of all-time. I also think that both "White House Down" and "Olympus Has Fallen" had a lot of entertaining and enjoyable action, mystery, and suspense including really great and amazing casts and personal/political storylines as well.

What a great deal; two very engaging and thrilling rides of a movie packed into one! Both stories deal with an attack on the White House, both produced in 2013 and both very entertaining. Whereas "White House Down" has a bit more comic relief and humour, "Olympus Has Fallen" remains more gritty and realistic. This is your chance to compare the two and pick YOUR favourite! Excellent deal!

Which one is Which?

When two movies with the same basic plot line are released relatively near each other, it's easy to see how confusion can happen. Both films contain plot lines that are barely plausible (we hope). And both films contain a good line-up of stars. Both contain plenty of action and explosions and shoot-ups to satisfy anyone looking for an action picture. Of the two, Olympus Has Fallen is my pick for the better.

Mindless entertainment that doesn't disappoint. Sure, some of this stuff is super cliche (I mean, two movies basically about the same thing), but if you're not looking for an arthouse film or something Oscar-worthy and prefer a good explosion here and there -- this is perfect.

both Olympus Has Fallen and White House Down have their champions, and that goes to show how much differentiation can exist on such a seemingly all-American premise. Both films are very loyal to those American roots, but in very different ways.

I enjoyed Olympus Has Fallen more than White House Down. Both movies are fantastic though. Feel good movies for the good guys/USA. Super high body count in both movies as well as lots of blood - probably not the movies for small children!

Both of these are great movies on their own. I recommend not watching them back to back though as you will want to digest one before taking on the other. I enjoyed them both on their own and was happy to pick them up together in one set.

Great combination of two action movies

Both are very good if you're into the action and good guy/bad guy type movies. Once you understand the storyline, you know what the ending will be, but it's the build-up that is entertaining.

These are both entertaining movies as long as you don't look for any substance. Excellent for rainy days or late nights when you need explosions and profuse gunfire to keep you awake. Fun stuff!

Not much to say on this one, two ok action movies about attacks on governments. It's been done before. I do like getting "sets" like this because it saves space on a shelf. And when your hurting for space, this is a great thing.

Die hard part ???? this is a movie that has been done many times and this has nothing to really set it apart from the others but it is a very good action filled movie and if you are looking for action - this one delivers.

I liked both of these similar movies, Olympus has fallen was the more realistic and die hard like. White house down was a little more comical. Good Blu rays to add to the collection.

Both movies together for 1 price was too good to pass up. Both movies present an interesting scenario, and are action packed to keep you engaged throughout the entire movie.

Both movies take the situation of what would happen if the White House was taken but in different ways. They are both good movies with excellent casting all around. Lots of action, gun-play and more action!

Huge fan of Olympus Has Fallen, guess I'll take the rip off version White House Down for free. Excellent value. Who's gonna complain over a free movie right?

The double movie is great for getting similar videos that have the same content or for series. Love the actors & the general theme as to what could happen.

Bought the combo pack and so far only watched White House Down. Loved the movie. Too bad movies aren't in 7:1 sound but it still sounded good.

Two destruction movies about the White House, where two big name action stars have to save the president in two different movies!?! Fantastic
