Angel Has Fallen

Secret Service agent Mike Banning undergoes grueling training at a military facility run by his friend Wade Jennings. This training not only enhances his skills but also lays the groundwork for the challenges he will face later.

President Allan Trumbull recommends Mike Banning to take over as the Director of the Secret Service after the retiring Director David Gentry. This appointment sets the stage for a series of events that will test Banning's loyalty and skill.

While the President enjoys a peaceful fishing retreat, the security detail is unexpectedly attacked by armed drones. This incident marks the beginning of chaos and triggers a desperate need for Banning to step in as a hero.

During the drone attack, President Trumbull ends up in a coma, creating a power vacuum and thrusting Banning into a perilous situation where he must navigate treachery and suspicion.

FBI Agent Helen Thompson begins an investigation into the attack and uncovers evidence connecting Mike Banning to the scene, including his DNA and a large suspicious financial transfer. This shocking revelation leads to Banning's arrest.

While being transported to detention, Banning's convoy is ambushed, allowing him to escape. This moment reveals the betrayal of his own training exercise as he fights off the attackers, showcasing his survival instincts.

Fleeing for his life, Banning contacts his wife Leah to inform her of his escape. Unfortunately, this communication is intercepted, and it sparks a frantic car chase led by Agent Thompson.

After escaping the chase, Banning retreats to his father's home in the woods for protection. He shares his difficult situation with his father, who offers assistance as they brace for the approaching threat.

As President Trumbull remains unconscious, Vice President Martin Kirby is sworn in as Acting President. Kirby's maneuvers lead to increased tension as he accuses Banning of orchestrating the attack.

As Jennings' henchmen close in on Banning and his father, Clay uses explosives to defend their home. This moment highlights the lengths they will go to protect their family amid increasing danger.

FBI Agent Thompson discovers bodies near the cabin, leading her to doubt the evidence against Banning. Her investigation intensifies as she starts piecing together the deeper conspiracy at play.

In a critical turn of events, President Trumbull awakens and becomes aware of Kirby's collusion with Jennings. This revelation shifts the power dynamics and repositions Banning as a crucial ally.

After being captured at the hospital, Banning is unexpectedly freed by Trumbull, who recognizes his innocence. Together, they strategize to thwart Jennings' escalating plans, including a bomb threat at the hospital.

In a heart-stopping face-off, Banning confronts Jennings, culminating in a brutal hand-to-hand battle. Using all his training and determination, Banning ultimately fatally stabs Jennings, putting an end to the chaos.

With Banning cleared of all accusations, Trumbull and Gentry take decisive action against Kirby for his treachery. In the aftermath, Trumbull offers Banning the Directorship of the Secret Service, an opportunity Banning accepts gratefully.
