Roland Emmerich’s 6-Second Review of ‘White House Down’ (VIDEO)

Blockbuster director Roland Emmerich (“White House Down,” “2012,” “Independence Day”) is Moviefone’s Guest Editor from June 24 – 28. Look for more videos — and some “White House Down” secrets — from him throughout the week.
Don’t get us wrong, Mr. Moviefone’s 6-Second Reviews are great, but one from the film’s director? That’s pretty cool, too.

Roland Emmerich has three words to say about his latest action movie “White House Down,” but we’re not going to tell you (you have to watch for yourself). While it may seem hard to cram a review into only six seconds for a movie that features a White House invasion, a sitting president (Jamie Foxx) kicking butt, and tons of explosions, Emmerich sums it all up pretty succinctly.

Check out his 6-Second Review. Are you planning to see “White House Down” this weekend?
