Reveiw of Die Hard IV review

Review of Die Hard IV review
Kyle Smith in his review said he hated Die Hard IV. The entire plot was cheesy and unoriginal. Some of the one-liners that I did not notice when I saw the film seemed to bug him, but the ones I do remember help to get a sense of what the characters are like. A Die Hard movie is not a Die Hard movie without senator McClain saying “yippee cay ye mo fo! ” I also enjoyed the French terrorists, but this reviewer though that the film should have wasted time on creating a back story for the French thugs. They are nameless thugs that happen to be French; that is all the biography that I need. Another thing that he did not like about the film was,
“The average Mac [in the film] contained a secret cache of TNT waiting to be detonated by just the right code sequence.”
Again would a “1337 h4ck20r” or “elite hacker” use the “average Mac?” no! The reviewer also thinks that a truck is unable to outmaneuver a jet, but some jets have turn radiuses of up to half a mile. It is funny to think about the fact that the many missiles that were shot at the truck wily-Nelly each cost tens of thousands of dollars more than the truck.
I do agree with the reviewer that saying this “virtual terrorism plot” is not that scary. A terrorist destroying our technology does not sound that bad. If the escalator at the mall breaks down, then I will not wait for rescue. The same type of thing would happen if I developed an allergic reaction to the BS that the blog thing threw out, I would fall back on better technology to publish my texts. In the movie the hackers hack into the traffic center in Washington DC and make all the stop lights turn green. I think all the traffic lights in D.C. turning green would not be a problem if they went back to traffic cops. I also like the reviewer bad mouthing mission impossible three. The super spies talk about Tom Cruises’ marriage as they are getting in a firefight. Lame! MI3 sucked big time, yet he compared it to Die Hard. Blasphemy!
There are other things that I find funny about Die hard films that this guy did not mention. Like how John McCain would have died many times if there was falling damage in Die Hard. Why do the villains need to kill the guards after the guards let them into a place and have no suspicions or any idea on what to look for? Heroes always have aim hacks. Aim hacks are when you alter a videogame in a way so you always hit other players even when you are off by 180 degrees. I find those goofs in movies to be funny and make me like the movie more. It is like the free fall animation in a video game happening when a character gets wedged between two rocks. Fractured physics and impossible bullet dodging make it even more fun.
I thought Die Hard four was the best Die Hard since the first one. The thing that really helped was that the fourth one did not mention the events of the other three movies. It was also good because it was made in a different generation from the first one and could not leech off the popularity of the first one. Die Hard four was the first Die Hard that I saw, and that is what got me to watch the other three.
