Best action movie in recent times. True to the action movie genre of the 90's

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2007)

Not as good as Die Hard 1 or 3 but better then 2. Too much emphasis on computer hacking. The villain in this movie is younger then the other villains in the Die hard movies but he does an excellent job. I couldn't watch this movie without being reminded that I was watching the guy from the Mac commercials, so that aspect bothered me as well as the fat "clerks" actor as the warlock (totally miscast but probably called a favor to get the role). The worst thing about this movie was the beginning for those who saw the movie I am referring to the cliché father daughter boyfriend car scene. For 12 years in the making it could have been better though. Nonetheless, there hasn't been a better action movie then this one in a long time. While watching this movie you get the sense that this is how action movies were meant to be made.
