A Good Day to Die Hard

The Die Hard franchise stays true to its name and rises from its deathbed to deliver another new entry. In this fresh installment the sturdy John McClane flies to Russia to try to help his estranged son who gets mixed up in a dangerous war between two corrupt officials. Armed with good old American bravado and a truck load of ammunition, the McClanes unleash mayhem and male bonding to stop a plot with global repercussions.

ClearPlay In Action!

ClearPlay cleans up a lot of bloody violence and a fair number of language issues of the F and S variety. With filters on full there will be plenty of gaps where people are killed in bloody ways, mostly by gunfire. Despite the edits, the movie is still easy to follow, but if you are an action fan, you may want to adjust the filters to your liking.

Is this a Good Day to Watch A Good Day to Die Hard?

This new Die Hard feels a little dead, or at least seems to have a severe case of rigor mortis. It lacks character and is more of a generic action film that doesn’t capture the feel of the earlier entries. Bruce Willis does his best John McClane, but the lackluster script doesn’t provide a lot of room for excellence. The film is dark and gritty and violent, so those looking for a dose of action and destruction won’t be let down. I will give credit for a decent twist at the end of the movie, but bullet for bullet the earlier entries in the series are better.
