Amazon.co.uk Review

Twelve years after Die Hard with a Vengeance, the third and previous film in the Die Hard franchise, Die Hard 4.0 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, Dodgeball) 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. Die Hard 4.0 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 humour, and Willis's ability to toss off a quip while barely alive. Yippee-ki-ay! --David Horiuchi


Synopsis

After a twelve-year hiatus, Bruce Willis is back as New York City detective John McClane, who still plays by his own set of rules. Following DIE HARD (1988), DIE HARD 2 (1990), and DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE (1995), the fourth instalment in the popular action series stars DEADWOOD's Timothy Olyphant as Thomas Gabriel, an evil mastermind who is determined to bring down the entire infrastructure of the United States on Independence Day, sending the country into anarchy and chaos. Joining him on his mission of destruction is the elegant Mai, played by Maggie Q from MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III. McClane becomes involved when he gets caught in the crossfire while transporting prisoner Matt Farrell (Justin Long, IDIOCRACY), a hacker extraordinaire who is the perfect complement to the old-school McClane, who eschews mobile phones, computers, and doing anything the easy way. But when Gabriel kidnaps McClane's daughter, Lucy (Mary Elizabeth Winstead, DEATH PROOF), it gets personal. Full of the sarcastic humour, exciting action sequences--including a car flying into a helicopter--and fun characters that have defined the series, DIE HARD 4.0 is an excellent addition, directed by Len Wiseman (UNDERWORLD). The movie also features Kevin Smith as a computer geek known as Warlock, who still lives in his mother's basement.

4.0 out of 5 stars Should be called "Impossible to Die" , 26 Jan 2008
By Mr. W. Coles "Wilsner" (Beyond the Thunderdome) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When your sequals start getting upto 4's and in Rockys case, the 6's, there's always the danger that the people who made the film are flogging a dead horse, or the particular lead stars career is on the hard shoulder and in need of a jump start so you usually have to be cautious.
I wasn't sure if that was the case with this because Bruce Willis was still showing up in Sin Cities and Len Wiseman had just made the Underworld movies so I dove in anyway. Am I glad I did!
This movie had alot to live up to following part 3, but it does, and then some! The story is there or there abouts, good enough but then there's the action, which is mental!
Since 'ol John McClane had already destroyed a skyscraper, an airport and the best part of New York city in the last three outings I suppose the only way to up the ante was to get the 'wife-beater-vest' wearing alcoholic to basically blow the whole of the USA up! well almost.
The story revolves around a terrorist who is aiming to cripple the US economy by destroying the governments security network, and obviously the guy who has been in the wrong place at the wrong time so many times before you would have thought he would be a hermit by now, is the person who is going to save the day. Which he does, but like I say, not before destroying everything he comes across, including most parts of his body.

Listen, I could go on about this but there's no need, you either like action or not, if you do, buy this and love it, if you don't, then buy this and someone in your house will.
As my title says, you don't have to be a die hard action flick fan to like it, it's just wicked.
...Can't wait for Die Hard 5: Suicide Doesn't Work, where McClane saves the world from colliding with the sun with nothing but his vest and some aspirin!
DVD wise, if you like all of the series, I would potentially look at the quadrilogy, it's 9 quid more but probably worth it

4.0 out of 5 stars "Die Hard 4.0" or "Live Free or Die Hard" depending on where you live, 9 Sep 2007
By David Bowers "www.david-bowers.co.uk" (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This, as you have guessed, is the 4th Die Hard movie, coming about a decade after number 3.

Since we last saw John McClane the world has technologically grown up without him. He's an old school cop in a high tech world. The general plot is he is sent to pick up a 'hacker' who is wanted by some terrorists who also want to take over the US using solely technology as their weapon.

The film is 2 hours of action, almost non-stop. Yes you'll need to suspend belief, but it's a Die Hard movie, goes without saying. Personally I really enjoyed this movie and it's great to see Bruce Willis reprise John McClane. Best action movie I've seen this year, so far.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable, worth watching if you liked the others, 28 Mar 2008
By Kaylee (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This is a classic action adventure film in which you have to suspend your disbelief. Although I don't think that it's as good as the first and the third, I do still like it. The film is set quite a few years after the last one, he's lost more hair and found himself a jacket. He gets called in to pick up a hacker, and subsiquently into a computer based adventure. The story is based around the idea of being able to hack into all the major recorces of America and shutting them down, causing havock as you go. It follows Bruce Willis and his new trusty sidekick (the hacker)on a journey that takes them accross America, hunting down a man with a serious grudge against the U.S. government. It's interesting to see the daugter of John McClane as an adult, and seeing that she is the female version of her dad (and subsiquently having more balls than the hacker). It is funny in places and generally a light weight action movie, like the other three in the series. The character of John McClane is still the same, just older and this is almost like coming back and visiting an old friend in that you know what he's going to do. I would say that it wasn't as good as the first and third purely for the reason that they out shine the rest with the inspired casting of Alan Rickman and Samuel L Jackson. The side kick in this movie comes from a completely different back ground and it shows how they learn from one another about different aspects of life, e.g. McClane discovers more about computers and the hacker learns how to fight. I enjoyed watching it and would recomend that if you liked the others, this is one for you to see.
