Die Die Wun Die a.k.a Die Hard 4.0

Save the world .....


Who needs Autobots ? Spidey ? Magical Harry ? How about a team of fantastic heroes ?

Nah .... You just need John McClane, the NYPD is back. Bruce willis reprise the role, should be the last .... Hmmmmm or maybe not ?

Some tech wiz told the US gov they need to overhaul their system because the security is crap. He proves it by hacking it using just a laptop, this method didn't worked and backfired. So this thomas gabriel guy is back with a bang, hacked into the system, the objective is download financial data which he can use to steal the money or just crippled the world.

Thomas used one of the program which was created by this farrell guy, by Justin Long, seen in tonnes of B-grade movies, this time round he braved it through in a role which is I believe new to him.

McClane which was off-duty but somehow ordered to bring farrell in as he was still in this "Hacker" list, and his trip to bring him in .... sparked off a blazing trail of good old action-packed of gun fights, fist fighting, action-sequence, heli, fighter planes, giant trailer-trucks and explosions.

Maggie Q got more screen time than in MI3 but died a horrible death. Her death just sparked off thomas anger against McClane and he kidnapped her daughter. This pissed him off and off he went with his simple plan of "Save his daughter and killed the rest" which he reiterated to Farrell.

A good old "Die Hard" movie. 8/10.
