Go to enjoy, disable your disbelief, and have a blast. Several, actually. :)
Doesn't take itself too seriously. :) McClane laughs Every Time does one of those INSANE, and insanely great, stunts.
A great set of chase scenes. A great shoot-em-up.
I liked it as well as I liked the 1st one. All by itself, this would be excellent. As a sequel, it is Amazing.
I was pleased that they let the misguided-computer-geek and the daughter-to-be-rescued have more than quivering-jelly parts. I was sorry not to see his wife in this one.
The special effects are, of course, amazing. The acting is good. The feds are not drooling incompetents.
DO NOT go expecting anything approaching realism. I am serious about the required suspension of disbelief. If you look too hard the whole thing will break down.
But who cares?! I did not go expecting an expose on real-world computer hacking and counter-terrorism. I went for a great action show. I got it. If you want to learn about computer security and the risks of modern society, watch some PBS. If you want to be very enjoyably diverted for 130 or so minutes, go see this movie.
