Super fun!

Super fun! I agree with some reviews that Die Hard 4.0 is like Rocky Balboa: you watch it not expecting much from the latest regurgitated version of a popular series but you end up enjoying it immensely. This approach works because it sticks to its roots of why people liked the original in the first place: unstoppable, heart-pounding action coupled with well-placed comic relief.
The unsinkable Bruce Willis reprises his role as super-cop John McLane with still the right amount of cockiness. No matter what situation he's in, you can't help but root for the guy and believe in the amazing stuff that he gets to do! While Timothy Olymphant (in his metrosexual garb) isn't much of a scary nemesis for our burly hero (and his able foil, played by the forever geeky Justin Long) compared to past arch-enemies, his partner-in-crime Maggie Q provided enough action for the both of them. There are just too many incredible action sequences in this flick that's poised to entertain. Loads of fun!
