Too cold

Rating: 7/10 (10 August 2007)

Bruce is great, he does not age, he runs, shoots and kills, and he swears, he cracks his usual jokes and he looks well. But what has happened? The first two Die Hards are still the best, the first one is very fresh and upbeat even today, the second is my personal favorite... but the last one, 4.0, is a bit too cold. This is what happens when all these computers come in. They are faceless, cold, impersonal and really soulless. The film fell a victim of that. Even the Dad / Daughter line does not convince me too much and the whole movie stands alone like a nice showcase of good studio effects. All those viruses, blown up helicopters, cars and shoot outs are great, but they seem a bit senseless and only serve as a good trap, not making you think or wanting to watch it again. Hope, the 5.0 will not take place in space...
