Die Hard 4.0 (2007)
MODERATE ACTION VIOLENCE AND COURSE LANGUAGE.
| Director: | Len Wiseman |
| Actors: | Bruce Willis, Timothy Olyphant, Justin Long, Maggie Q, Cliff Curtis, Kevin Smith, Jonathan Sadowski, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Zeljko Ivanek |
John McClane is back! Bruce Willis reprises his signature role as the New York City cop who always finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time, in a new installment of Twentieth Century Fox’s Die Hard action franchise: DIE HARD 4.0. The Die Hard films are renowned for their non-stop action and tongue-in-cheek humor, and DIE HARD 4.0 will offer the biggest, most realistic set pieces in the franchise’s illustrious history, as well as an arsenal of McClane’s trademarked barbs. In the new picture, an attack on the vulnerable United States computer infrastructure begins to shut down the entire nation. The mysterious figure behind the shattering scheme has figured out every digital angle – but he never figured on an old-fashioned, “analog” fly-in-the-ointment: John McClane.

David Williams

Typical Die Hard. Great stuff .Must see.
Antony D
says
Bruce Willis, Action, stunts. all impossible, some holes in the story but great action!
I computer nerd, gets the cold shoulder and enacts revenge.. the only way he knows.. hack in al the infrastructure..
Bruce Willis is the only one to stop him.... "That makes you that kind of guy"
Jojo
says
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie from beginning to end - awesome stunts, enjoyable dialogue - laugh out loud stuff in some places - I just loved it. Yippee-ki-yay (you know the rest).
Denis
says
Problem with the dvd, kept stopping and breaking up
Ken hall
says
A very exciting fast action very clear (like Blu-ray) good sound - possibly the best Die hard ever!!
karen
says
Terrible, no typical Bruce Willis one liners, rediculous stunts that make it look silly.
Tristan
says
Best Die Hard I have ever seen!
A Luciani
says
Bruce Willis can give life to any movie. even those that are extremely far fetched. loved it any way. all 4 Die Hard's will be added to the dvd library soon
Lachlan
says
As far as Die Hard movies go, this is one of them. I'd give it cred for its action sequences, which even by Die Hard standards, are hilariously ludicrous. Especially the one with the fighter jet.
Tim
says
Great fun for a Saturday Night movie. A b unch of unrealistic action, but great fun to watch.
Jenny
says
different to the rest but yeah it was pretty cool.
Karen
says
Maybe not as good as the first two, but I felt better than the third. But then hey I love action movies.
Well worth a watch...
Jessica
says
If you just want to see a basic action movie this is for you. If you're going to watch this to criticise the latest Die Hard you'll have a field day. To enjoy this movie because you like the Die Hard series; there is seriously only one good part -> Yippee-Ki-Yay-M.F.
Athanasia G.
says
Exactly what you would expect from Die Hard movies lots of action but i think the aeroplane seen was a bit far fetched Bruce Willis could have done better.
Nigel W
says
Surprisingly good action movie the shoots above its weight given that the Die Hard franchise ought to be dead by now. The action sequences are exciting and Willis does a superb job as the downtrodden hero
James
says
More of the same, so if you enjoyed Die Hard 1-3, then you will love this updated version. The special effects are great, the action is fast paced and the story line is nearly believable. Just what you would expect from a Bruce Willis movie!!!
Kathryn Y.
says
Brillant!!!! Just what you would expect from John McLane and more.
Juliet
says
Gotta Love Bruce.
Natalie B.

Excellent, entertaining for the whole time

Bruce Willis does it again! I love the way he just keeps on keeping on.
Denny's husband

Once again Bruce Willis is John McClane or is it the other way around? lol.
I saw the first Die Hard when I was in high school and was blown away but alas the 3 sequels have never lived up to the original. This is a fun movie with the usual McClane one liners, fights and explosions but like the 3rd movie the ending is anti-climatic and lacks the explosive endings of Die Hard and Die Hard 2.
The Mac commercial guy is funny.
Ross L.
says
John McClane is the man! Not as good as the first Die Hard but then again none of the series can beat the classic original. Movie storyline a bit lame but as usual the non-stop action and McClane attitude holds everything together.
Debbie W.
says
excellent.. better than the others
Roger M.
says
my fav die hard movie
Marie F.
says
Entertaining and full of action. What I expect from this series
Michelle G.
says
Excellent!! Stood up to the others.
John O.
says
At times this does truly kick. Bruce holds it together. And the fact that it's a load of old crap doesn't matter. Strangely though it does drag a bit in the middle, mostly because they've already blown so many stunts in the first third.
Sean D.
says
Some really interesting hacker themes to this which kept me interested. What lost points for me was the unrealistic stunts such as the falling of the F35 jet. It may look great but the director must think we are stupid to believe it.
Cameron R.
says
Surprising in a number of ways. It's a decent sequel, which is a rare thing (though it doesn't equal the original - not even close.) It also has a terrorist theme without laying on politics, flagwaving or xenophobia with a heavy hand. It's pretty much a big, by-the-numbers setpiece action flick that moves at a fast pace, making all the right nods to the original. Popcorn flick, not great, not terrible, wont change your life.
Nigel W.
says
Surprisingly good action movie the shoots above its weight given that the Die Hard franchise ought to be dead by now. The action sequences are exciting and Willis does a superb job as the downtrodden hero.

Complete & utter twaddle, but most enjoyable. Typical Bruce Willis root'n toot'n shoot'n, rubbish, BUT good for Friday night when the footy's finished.
Surangi P.
says
This guy isn't getting old I tell you. More action than you can have in a one movie from start to the end. Some CGI effects are noticiable. But still it's among the very best.
Jane M.
says
Started to watch this whilst reading the newspaper, but the paper soon got left behind. Movie is full of action and great effects. Great movie!
Barbara M.
says
brilliant as we have come to expect from Bruce Willis.
Fritz N.

Ian G.
says
Plenty of action, fantastic special effects...but isn't it amazing that now matter how badly Bruce Willis is hurt, he can still go at 100mph.
Maria C.
says
Dad loved it.
Sally M.
says
Tab H.
says
High in action.
Definitely tongue in cheek.
Excellent special effects.
Great entertainment.
Bernadette B.
says
Heavy on special effects and things blowing up in odd ways, light on plot and acting. Bruce does alright for an old guy but the earlier movies were funnier.
Cameron R.
says
Greatest one of all
smeggers
says
A terrific addition to the Die Hard series with all the action & humour we've come to expect.
Danielle F.
says
Loved it!! Great effects, of course it's not really believable, but keeping that in mind it's great!!
lakme
says
This movie gets 4 stars because it is probably the most entertaining, funny film I have seen in a long time. Bruce "can't act to save my life" Willis reprises his role as John McClane, the lame, poor excuse for a cop that he played in the first 3 movies in this series and nothing about the character has changed. The storyline is great and the acting very tongue in cheek. Highly recommended for those who don't take their action movies too seriously.
Genevieve E.
says
Pretty much what you'd expect from a Die Hard movie. Unrealistic action sequences and laughably poor one liners from Bruce. The direction was slightly more edgy than previous efforts. Worth watching for some mindless fun.
Terence B.
says
Edge of seat enjoyment of highly improbable events but still very exciting

The Die Hard franchise has now hit rock bottom...no more to say.
Jasmin S.
says
Simply Awesome!!
Siobhan W.
says
I preferred Die Hard with a Vengeance to this one. I found this film less believable than any of the earlier Die Hards but if you're after action, that's guaranteed. Bruce has still got it.
Karen B.
says
Suspend your disbelief and enjoy the ride as, armed only with a computer geek and an automatic with an inexhaustible supply of ammo, John Maclaine single-handedly foils a bunch of cyber-criminals hell-bent on bringing the good old US of A to its knees. Great fun all the way through. Bruce Willis has still got it. But who knows for how long?
Vaeda V.
says
The best line of the movie was not in the DVD version! When he takes out the helicopter with a car, Bruce Willis says he was out off bullets. Not some crap about how many people die due to car accidents! But still a fabulous movie.
Amy G.
says
It's cheesey, amusing and sticks to the formula. What you would expect from a Die Hard film.
Julia B.
says
Absolutely fantastic! Loved it just as much as the others
Zondra H.
says
Stephen M.
says
A great watch. Thought it might not hold up but was just as good as the last!
Frank R.
says
Gillian M.
says
full on action, with lots of humour. Timothy Olyphant is one gorgeous bad guy.
Andrew H.
says
Just Maybe I'm afraid. The Die Hard franchise has become an excuse for special effects rather than John McLain taking on an army of bad guys and winning. Why oh why do they think the latest jet fighter has to get within 20 metres of it's target to get a shot at it???
Kevin D.
says
Die Hard 1 was truly great, its sequel was a disaster, Die Hard 3 was a good attempt to restore parity... but this film nearly does so but lacks the human touch
Samadhi T.
says
awesome :)
Aaron F.
says
Not bad but nowhere near as good as parts 1 and 3.
Prudence B.
says
Bruce Willis returned with a vengence in Die Hard 4.0. It was full of great action scenes and even better fight scenes. For all Die Hard fans out there, this is a must.
Chris S.
says
Really enjoyed it. Bruce Willis still has it, and the introduction of a Gen Y into the mix was good for variation on a theme. I always wonder how the Die Hard sequels will the top the previous one, and this did not disappoint!
Matt F.
says
Awesome movie! As good as the first.
David B.
says
Oh, the joy!!!
Joanne H.
says
good to see willis still has the ability to do an action flick. set in current time with a possible senario for willis to save us all. great stunts just like the others. Don't forget to watch the die hard song in the extras. very funny and a good reminder of what the 4 die hards have brought to our lives.

Great popcorn flick. Would have preferred a bit more characterisation on John Maclean, it's been a while since the last Die Hard outing and there wasn't much explanation about his family. I did have trouble relating to the actor who played the Computer Expert ... I was half expecting the guy to keep reciting his Advert "Hey PC, I'm Mac, What's up ?".
Lynette C.
says
Loved the movie. Fast paced, held my attention.
Jennifer S.
says
Much better than the 3rd one. I wasn't expecting much, but it was a good action film and Bruce Willis lived up to his action hero status.
Ian G.
says
Even though his older in this one Bruce Willis still plays his part well. The story is well done and the action wow.

excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Leslie M.
says
one of the best action movies i have seen in the last 12 months.bruce willis has again put in a tremendous role
Frederick D.
says
not as good as 1, 2 and 3 but still worth watching
Graham C.
says
The story and in particular the continuity of scenes was not considered. This movie went the way of most sequels, and that was downhill. Special effects was the basis of the movie at the expense of everything else.
Sanjay D.
says
Julie G.
says
Even though I was expecting this to be like every other Die Hard movie, I was pleasantly surprised! This had a really good plot, Bruce was brilliant and plenty of action made this sequel better than its predecessors.

Entertaining.
Sisiely W.

Really liked the action, my bf really enjoyed it and want to get a copy for himself.
Scott P.
says
The best of all the Die hard Movies, I think. Justin Long was queit good in his role and Bruce Willis was at his best as McClane.
Okto F.
says
Excellent - A lot of action. Even though it is the same action and person still the same tough as nail John McClaine, anyway if it's different actor or different plot than everybody is going to hate it.

Peter F.

Fantastic action..great moments where Bruce will always get out of trouble...a Die Hard classic..but not a classic film..will appeal to Die Hard fans only...I loved it..my wife was so-so..my 41 yr old daughter and hubby said it was boring..no taste!!!

Well the man is back...from the start to the end non-stop action,good story plot, and as the latest installment is REALLY good....lets see number 5.
Carmel S.
says
Awesome. A bit slow to get going but once it did it was non-stop action. Just as good if not better than the originals.
Luisa E.
says
Loved it.
Joahla
says
A great action flick and worthy addition to the Die Hard series. Hollywood's stunt people rely on movies like these to keep them in business. When you hear "Yippee-ki-yay mother f...", just like Arnold Schwarzenneger's "Hasta La Vista Baby", you know someone is about to get it! Recommended viewing.
Paul G.
says
Bruce is back and its just like all the other Die Hard movies with action from the first second to the last second. Excellent action movie, a must see.
Paul D.
says
Die hard rocks
Alfred S.
says
Surprisingly good movie. If you're familiar with the first three Die Hard movies, you'll know what to expect. Lot's of action with a dollop of John MacLane humour every now and then. Great escapism and great fun.
Okto F.
says
Not like Die Hard original. But still action packed KICK ASS TOUGHER THAN NAIL JOHN MCLANE!
Jas.
says
If you liked his older stuff you will HATE this one! All the other die hards are great flicks but this is definitely the worst action movie I have seen in quite a while, forget "B Grade" this is an "F".
Sharon C.

Exellent like the rest!!!!!
