Olympus Has Fallen

Stupidity: There are numerous snipers on and around the White House. They should have barraged the lawn and wiped out all the attackers on foot with rifles and machine gun fire.

Stupidity: The air defences in Washington fire once and then stop. They should have barraged that plane repeatedly until it went down.

Plot hole: The fact that a five minute timer starts after the three Cerberus codes are entered defeats the purpose of the program. If they program was made to destroy their own nuke warheads in case of a misfire you would expect them to be destroyed as soon as all three codes are in. (01:38:20)
