Summary:

'A Good Day to Die Hard' is a disappointing and underwhelming action film and despite some enjoyable moments fails because of the half-hearted acting, the messy and brainless script and the uninspired direction. It’s easily the worst of the franchise so far and I just hope it can be redeemed in the next effort.

A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD

John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover that Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces.

Now you won’t be surprised to hear that I love the Die Hard franchise and while the last film was completely outrageous, it was still a lot of fun. The thing is though, the reason why John McClane’s character is loved so much, particularly in the first 3 films is that there’s sense of vulnerability about him and this underdog cheeky attitude that you really can relate to. I mean he genuinely does feel like he just has a lot of bad luck. So is this film a return to what made franchise great or is it a sign that it really does need to die hard?

Check out the video review below and let me know what you thought of the film in the comments section.
