A Film Review By Paul Perkins

This Film Is Like Fine Wine It Get Better With Age
 

The Latest thing in Hollywood is to bring back series that was very poplar decades ago and see if they still have a  spark to them. Last year was Rocky this year we have some the upcoming Halloween and This film I am review called Live Free or Die Hard (Die Hard 4 if you are counting). Is next up to bat the film is about John McClane ( Bruce Willis) who get a new assignment to bring a young computer hacker Matt Farrells (Justin Long) from NJ TO DC to see the FBI who what to question him about some hacking problems there are having.
But for McClane the ordinary has a  habit of exploding into the extraordinary abruptly hurtling him into the wrong place at the wrong time. With Farrell's help McClane slows begins to understand the increasing chaos surrounding him. An attack is underway on the vulnerable United States infrastructure, shutting down the entire nation.

Well it been near 20 years since the first die hard came out that when we were introduce to Det John McClane and the crazy stuff that happens to him in his life. There has been 3 films out over the years all of them were good. It has been a while since when see him so when I heard there was going to be a fourth movie I was a little skeptic about it.

And then I heard the biggest mistake in film history they are make Die Hard 4 a PG-13 film the big question is why? It has always been a rated R film why not make it a R. Let see some good and bad points about the film.

Good.

  1. The like the story of the film and how even so this is a fake story it still did not seem so far fetch. We all live our life by computers so what would happen if some one destroy all the computer of the world how would we live and is our county at risk  to this kind of attack.
  2. The acting was pretty good by all of the main players of the film. Bruce Wills did a great job of bring John McClane back and keeping him the same as he was in the past films.
  3. The film was very funny more funny then the other films. It had some funny one-liners.
  4. Been that this film is a pg-13 film you would think it would have not that much stuff in it. That would  make it closer to a R rating well guess what? Their is a lot of stuff in it that this film should have gotten a R Rating.
  5. The action scenes were breathtaking some of the stuff were very cool and granted some of it is a little far fetched but hey this is a film.
  6. In this film John McClane does get his but kicked but one of the main players and he has some great lines with that person as well.

Bad Points

  1. To be honest the only thing I did not like about the film was the rating the film board gave the film.

Overall I was very impress from Live Free or Die Hard this was one great popcorn film I enjoyed this film a lot and everyone check it out today you will not regret it.
