Review of Live Free or Die Hard (2007) by Scott M — 04 Jun 2018

Bruce Willis teams up with hacker Justin Long to take on super hacker Timothy Olyphant who has basically hacked everything and is causing chaos. Willis has to use good old fashioned violence to stop him.

This film is so absurd that it makes "Die Hard" feel like "My Dinner with Andre", but it's certainly not awful. Willis and Long have decent chemistry and a lot of the action set pieces are well-executed.

It's a thoroughly okay action flick, it just doesn't feel like a "Die Hard" film. Kevin Smith shows up in a small role and I wish he wouldn't.
