heres my review: IT SUCKED!

1) same friggin' Euro-trash bad guys as in every other Die Hard movie.
2) same odd couple buddy bull**** as the last movie
3) on the bad guy - rather impressive credentials and back-story for a 25 year old.
4) was that Ryan Seacrest as the bad guy?
5) the bad guys chick - she gets hit full on by a fast moving Ford Excurion to no effect.
6) when the Excursion hits the wall at 60 miles per hour, she is able to stay holding on to the hood.
7) is not effected by a 70mph Excursion but is knocked unconsious by a stiff straight right.
8) she's trading punches with Bruce Willis, when she evidently has a gun on her the whole time.
9) as she is plunging to her demise, she has the wherewithall to give a disdainful look to Bruce Willis, rather than an "oh ****" look.
10) the entire sequence involving the jet plane and the semi.
11) 'electronic rerouting' of all regional gas lines to one building.

overall a totally stupid and pointless movie.

know what else i didnt like - The Bourne Ultimatum

liked the first movie. didnt care for the second movie. the third movie was just more of everything that annoys about the whole tired franchise.

1) Spain, Hong Kong, Germany, Moracco, New York, Italy, Russia, London. seems like your in all these places in the span of like eight minutes.
2) the constant tracking - "okay, im tracking him here" "we just picked him up in Germany" - Christ! enough already!

just no reason for either of the two sequels.

I've managed to avoid both, and after reading your review I think I'll continue to avoid them.

Lighten up folks! Die Hard movies are about action not intelligence. Now the Bourne Ultimatum was very difficult to follow and the moving camera got on my nerves but overall, it was ok. I hope it's over. It ended by tying it up and that's enough now.

I didn't like it either. IN the first three Die Hard movies, McCain was a formidable cop, but he was still just a human being. Live Free or Die Hard turned him into a super hero. I didn't buy it.

I watched it on tv a few years ago, back when I actually watched edited content versions with commercial interruptions. I don't recall turning it off. ....

I try to suspend my disbelief when it comes to movies, but this one really stung me (as an IT professional). So many ridiculous concepts, I don't even know where to start. My brother will throw it at me to rile me up from time to time, but I can do the same with him and The Core (he's an aerospace engineer). He flips out at the very mention of that movie.

"Hi, I'm MAC and I'm John effing McClane"
