Unbelievable

Rating: 8/10 (27 December 2007)

When I saw that this movie was a PG-13 in America I was immediately put off, as what did it for me in the previous Die Hards was the almost constant hard-hitting action. However, the film still keeps the violence, its just less graphic.
A 52 year old Bruce Willis is on top form in this epic, and the feel good factor that comes from watching the amazing stunts and special affects is truly terrific. When action isn't occurring, the deep and intriguing plot keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Supporting characters, including Mclanes daughter, also play brilliant roles, which are only topped by Willis' superb acting.
In comparison to the previous Die Hard films, I believe this film tops Die Hard 2 & 3, and for those who enjoy the special affects more than others this film is better than the first Die Hard. However the first film was original, had more adult content in and had a marginally better plot. Nevertheless, Die Hard 4.0 (or Live Free or Die Hard) is a must see thrill ride of a film.
9/10
