John McCane: No mask, no cape, no problem


Life Free or Die Hard is much less like the Die Hard movies before it. Instead, John McCane, played by the imfamous Bruce Willis, has to transport hacker Matt Farrell, played by Justin Long, who is said to have a connection with and attack on the United States. As it turns out, the computer geek is himself just one of the many targets that unknowingly helped the bad guys in their plot to take over.
The acting is satisfactory, the plot is suspenseful and the dialogue is decent. But it really is all about the stunts, and they do no disappoint. "Live Free or Die Hard is rediculous or may-be even rediculously fun non-stop action movie," says movie reviewer Peter Sciretta. And personally, I'd have to agree. Even with the first Die Hard movie back in the 1980's, Bruce Willis still plays the indeliable, indestructable action icon with one-hundred percent credibility.
