Live Free Or Die Hard

Live Free Or Die Hard Poster

Rated: PG-13

Running Time: 130 Minutes

Year: 2007

Boobs: Zero

One Sentence: It is a Die Hard movie.

Part 4?  You want to make Die Hard part 4?  Are you shitting me?  Harry Potter 5 is out next week, Spider Man 3, Pirates 3,  Ocean's 13, Fantastic Four 2, and now you want to put out Die Hard 4?  At the same time?  Does anyone have anything new to bring to the table?  It will be good you say?  Are you sure?   

I was hoping, I think a lot of people are hoping.  John McClane is one of our generations hero's.  Maybe not your perfect clean cut super hero type, but is defiantly someone that people enjoy watching, and has had 3 successful previous movies.   So part 4, seemed scary, and the name is really really horrible.  Is there any possible way this movie can not suck horribly.  It just didn't seem likely.  Well I am here to tell you, it does not suck, and I would say it is probably the second best of the 4 movies.  

It has everything you wanted for it to be a Die Hard movie.  Even being rated PG-13 it doesn't feel watered down at all.  Explosions, fights, guns, nerds, computers, FBI, CIA, car chases, helicopters, Kevin Smith and tons more.  It was filled to the brim with Die Hard caliber action, and an awesome aged John McClane.  Even the Mac kid, Justin Long who I thought was going to annoy me, was really great and made it work.  I would only give 1 scene with a jet plane a cheesy overdone factor, but I am willing to overlook that since they delivered a great Die Hard movie for us.  So The Reviewer says yes to Live Free or Die Hard, and I would even say yes to seeing it in the theater.  I think this one is worth it.

I just thought the movie should be renamed to Die Hard: Still Not Dead Yet?

Well i am sure the studios are hoping so as well. Bruce was on the Daily show last Tuesday and they were both kinda making jokes about Die Hard 88 or something. Pretty funny.
