Die hard 4

Rating: 5/10 (27 August 2007)

Seriously this film is awful and that is as spot on as it gets. I watched it thinking of all the reviews be it on here or most of the TV/reporter reviewers and i was all excited. I mean how many of us have seen the die hard movies on TV about 50 times plus? Exactly.
For me the order in terms of quality of action and film goes 1,3,2 and lastly 4. Now i watched this today and couldn't believe how bad 4 was, ideally i'd have rated it 5 maybe 6 out of 10. First McClain is telling jokes like Arnie in T3 then he seems not only weaker but at the same time able to do more strength moves and stunts, i mean he hangs off waiting for a falling drop 3 times!! Then there's the fact that nothing actually happens in the film, i mean some hacker guy along with John gets chased 3 times thats about it and the helicopters are done to the death. The tunnel scene where the car flips over a million times just makes you think this is Hollywood in dreamworld x10, and that says something. You literally think "yeah right" not to mention the 'kung fu' girl who gets hit by a 4x4 at 40-60 and survives to fight John McClain likes shes just been born, fresh as a daisy.
Although all that is film content if i was to be major picky then i could say the GUI computer content is a bit too OTT like Hackers was. You don't just execute a virus and see a lovely screen showing you it in that way. Sorry i know it has to work for the basic public but it washes down as well as the action scenes did. That lorry swerve worked like a race of Mario Kart.. Again Yeah right.
My advice watch this movie for free as any cost in £pounds will hurt you. We all love Bruce but like T3 all good things should be left alone.
