60-second cinema

8 out of 10 I'm not normally one for the Die Hard series, but on this occasion, I managed to disengage my brain just the right amount and I genuinely enjoyed it. Let's face it, whenever a film involves cyber-crime, you just know you're going to have to filter a lot of stuff out and this film's no exception. However, the interplay between the 2 main characters (McClane & hacker-boy Farrell) in this outing was good enough to make me forget the technical nonsense and the pace of the action kept everything rolling along nicely. Not bad for a popcorn movie. :)

6 out of 10 Surprise Surprise this is not an intellectual thinking man's film but a good bit of brain candy. As brain candy goes it is no where near the best but at least the film continues the Die Hard series attempts to have something different. The plot line involes virtual terrorism something you just would not expect in a Steven Seagal or Jean-Claude Van Damme movie. In summary this unfortunately is not Die Hard or even Die Hard 2 but at least it is considerably better than Die Hard 3.
