Um þessa kvikmynd

Live Free or Die Hard gets real -- with real action, real humor, and the reprise of a beloved and iconic character: John McClane (Bruce Willis). On the Fourth of July weekend, an attack on the vulnerable United States infrastructure begins to shut down the entire nation. The mysterious figure behind the scheme has figured out every modern angle... but he never figured on John McClane -- the old-school "analog" fly in the "digital" ointment.

Einkunnir og umsagnir

"Live Free or Die Hard" is a mostly tolerable movie. The premise is interesting and reasonable. But, just about every activity implementing that premise is ridiculous (not just the tech stuff -- even the action stuff). But, heck. It's a movie about things going boom, people getting the snot beat out of them, and others being killed. And it's SUPPOSED to be that kind of movie. So, I'm rating it at an OK 3 stars out of 5.

It's like they forgot what the character is about. He is down on his luck cop who gets into ridiculous situations. Not James bond or Rambo taking down helicopters with....a car.

Olyphant and Maggie Q good villians, but horribly miscast McClane's daughter. Neutered itself by being PG, since fsr limits realistic language but not violence.
