Finally they make another 'old school' action movie!

Rating: Null/10 (7 August 2007)

The Die Hard series is always good value, but after a decade and more since the last film, I was worried that the fourth instalment would be weak. How wrong was I? Die Hard 4 is absolutely stunning, with ridiculous amounts of action, one-liners and general mayhem thrown in. Some of the set-pieces are top-drawer, especially the scene in which McLane speeds a car towards a helicopter, jumps out, with the car launching up into the chopper, a massive explosion the result! Of course, McLane is hurt, but a few scenes later seems recovered as if nothing happened! Pure gold! This film is 'old school'. The hero doesn't pussyfoot around, he unleashes shotgun justice as and when its necessary. The amount of firepower in this film is something which will please fans of the other films, there's plenty in there! The comedy is good too, especially McLane's struggles to contain his mirth in the company of the supergeek Warlock! Go and see this film NOW! Then order the DVD! Its that good!
