Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The bad guy Thomas Gabriel points a gun at McClane and declares "On your tombstone it will say 'Always in the wrong place at the wrong time'." "John McClane is back in the wrong place at the wrong time!" was a tagline used for Die Hard 2 (1990). more
Goofs:
Errors in geography: While driving through D.C., McClane, Farrell, and Johnson turn onto 14th Street, shown as a narrow street that ends in a 'T' intersection and represented on the bad guys' screens as running East/West. In reality, 14th Street is much wider, runs North/South, and is continuous except at Walter Reed Medical Center, which is nowhere near where the car would be traveling through the city. more

Just went to the world premiere of Die Hard 4.0, and I was positively surprised. It delivers action in abundance, and the movie has a great visceral feel to it thanks to great stunt work, and the fact that Willis really steps up in the fight scenes. The movie keeps up its pace throughout, and the script works quite well, though the tech-talk gets a little heavy at times. I was particularly worried about Wiseman directing, since both underworld movies were a complete mess in my opinion, but he really keeps it tight and disciplined this time around. Is Die Hard 4.0 the second or third best of the series? I don't know, but it is certainly a worthy successor, and all the other blockbusters should look this way to see how its done efficiently, crisp and above all entertaining.
