Editorial Review:

Description:
'The best of the best is back and better than ever' (WNYW-TV) in the latest installment of the pulse-pounding, thrill-a-minute Die Hard action films. New York City detective John McClane (Bruce Willis) delivers old-school justice to a new breed of terrorists when a massive computer attack on the U.S. infrastructure threatens to shut down the entire country over Independence Day weekend.

Amazon.com:


Twelve years after Die Hard with a Vengeance, the third and previous film in the Die Hard franchise, Live Free or Die Hard finds John McClane (Bruce Willis) a few years older, not any happier, and just as kick-ass as ever. Right after he has a fight with his college-age daughter (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), a call comes in to pick up a hacker (Justin Long, a.k.a. the 'Apple guy') who might help the FBI learn something about a brief security blip in their systems. Now any Die Hard fan knows that this is when the assassins with foreign accents and high-powered weaponry show up, telling McClane that once again he's stumbled into an assignment that's anything but routine. Once that wreckage has cleared, it is revealed that the hacker is only one of many hackers who are being targeted for extermination after they helped set up a 'fire sale,' a three-pronged cyberattack designed to bring down the entire country by crippling its transportation, finances, and utilities. That plan is now being put into action by a mysterious team (Timothy Olyphant, Deadwood, and Maggie Q, Mission: Impossible 3) that seems to be operating under the government's noses.



Live Free or Die Hard uses some of the cat-and-mouse elements of Die Hard with a Vengeance along with some of the pick-'em-off-one-by-one elements of the now-classic original movie. And it's the most consistently enjoyable installment of the franchise since the original, with eye-popping stunts (directed by Len Wiseman of the Underworld franchise), good humor, and Willis's ability to toss off a quip while barely alive. There was some controversy over the film's PG-13 rating--there might be less blood than usual, and McClane's famous tag line is somewhat obscured--but there's still has plenty of action and a high body count. Yippee-ki-ay! --David Horiuchi

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Mac owners! Digital copy does not work on Mac
Bought the DVD w/the included digital copy only to find out that the digital copy cannot be downloaded to a Mac computer (work only on Window computers). I wished they had put it clearly in the description when you buy the DVD.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I thrive on the ACTION!
A great Bruce Willis movie. Can always count on him to get the old pumper thumping!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good solid action movie
This is an entertaining movie, it's got some great stunts and good car chases. The violence has been toned right down but the film is still very enjoyable in a daft kind of way.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best of the Die Hards ...
Perhaps the best of the Die Hards ... Ive seen the other Die Hards many times over, over the years, and I cant watch them anymore; its just too drawn out ... this one I do like, a lot!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great movie
Bought the Blu-ray version. Great picture and sound. Typical Die Hard movie. Lots of action.
