Jay W "Die Hard" may seem like a movie primed for a sequel. It was an awesome 80's action movie with a great character in the lead. And most importantly for the studio, the movie was a big box-office hit, so why not make a franchise out of this property? The problem is inherent in the set up. John McClain is the reluctant hero; he is simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. He is just a cop, not a superhero. He is not the person that the government turns to when a super villain calls. So, what do you do? You have him in the wrong place at the wrong time...again. This film is very much, Die Hard...again. Not that it is necessarily a bad thing, it is just underwhelming. The movie is not as tightly written as the first. As they cut to the other side stories in this film, you do find yourself just suffering through the scenes to get to the main plot. There are some plot points that just don't make sense. The villain isn't as memorable as the first film. I just finished the film, and I still can't remember his name. Was it Mr. Falcon? But, on the positive side, John McClain is still a great every man. Bruce Willis does a great job in the role, making more than just an impression of the character, but making him feel like the character has grown and progressed since the last time we saw him. The action still feels very visceral, and more grounded than the over-the-top action of other franchises. It may not be one of the all-time great action movies of all time, like the first one, but it is still a good one. I admire that the film does Try Hard.
