Die Hard 4.0 (Review)



What usually happens when the action hero is a 52 year old? You could possibly see him looking like cold sausage about to get a stroke. But not this man...Bruce Willis. Some how he seems to pull it off. Can we rank him in the likes of Danny Glover and Mel Gibson? I bet you can. Die Hard for certainly makes look good.

John McClane a senior detective is tasked top bring in a Hacker to the FBI. Naturally nothing goes smoothly when he McClane gets an assignment. So some Cyber terrorist is finding for the Hacker, Farrel to end his life after he unknowingly did a code for him. McClane's job? Keep Farrel alive and saves the country from a complete cyber attack. Typically Die Hard franchise McClanes Daughter this time gets captured as a bargaining chip. But hey...this would only piss McClane even more and you know the famous cursing script that signals that the bad guy is gonna die.

This has got to be the best action movie this summer release. Forget the CGI laden superhero movies and shit....this is traditional Bang-bang-kablaammm-boom movie. The pace was nice...no draggy scenes and not too much mayhem to cause distraction form the story. Who says an old man cant rock, fly a helicopter and use a squad car as a missile? John McClane can do it day in and day out. Owh...did I mention that Maggie Q is hot~! My rating is a cool 5 over 5~!
