Blu-Ray: It's a Good Day To Die Hard for Hansel and Gretel's Warm Bodies

A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD, HANSEL AND GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS, and WARM BODIES have a lot in common.  They all feature over-the-top action, zombie-like creatures, CGI blood, and dynamic duo team-ups.  I've only seen one of them and that was the unfortunate 5th entry in the DIE HARD series.  I doubt an extended cut will improve it by much, but you never know.  HANSEL AND...

Was Mark Strong almost the villain in A Good Day to Die Hard?

Mark Strong plays a really good bad guy. He has appeared in a ton of movies over the last few years including SHERLOCK HOLMES, JOHN CARTER, KICK ASS, and STARDUST. He has also played non-villains in TINKER TAILOR SOLDIER SPY, ZERO DARK THIRTY, and more, but he tends to focus on unlikeable characters. If you see his name in the credits, you are safe to assume he is going to be yelling...

Director John Moore talks working with Bruce Willis on A Good Day To Die Hard; also, is there a longer cut on the horizon?

I know that some of you dug it, but for me, A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD was not up to par.  I'm not going to jump into a rant about it, as we've already heard plenty already, but the disdain for the film by many (most?) is something that factors into this story.  It seems that director John Moore , who generated next to no excitement upon being announced as the helmer of the fifth...

C'mon Hollywood: Listen to the fans (they know better)!

Last week I went and saw a little movie called A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD and, like many of you, walked out feeling like an asshole for shelling out $8 bucks to a tired, shitty, brain-dead entry in a bottoming out franchise. I hit the Internet once I got home and immediately saw that Bumbray had posted his review and sure enough he confirmed that the movie was a festering turd. I...

What did you think of...A Good Day to Die Hard?

The original DIE HARD movie is one of the best "action movies" of all-time, and certainly one of my favorite movies of all-time (action or otherwise), so we decided to spend this past week kicking all kinds of DIE HARD ass on the site, but alas, it seems as though the "pay-off" ultimtately didn't pay off as both of our reviewers didn't care much for the latest installment called A...

Cool Videos: A rockin' musical review of A Good Day to Die Hard

By now, we all know that A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD will not be a good movie. Both JimmyO and Chris Bumbray had major issues with the movie, but the consensus is that the DIE HARD series really ended with the third movie and has turned into something else with the fourth and fifth chapters. I was so dejected reading their reviews, I am waiting to see the movie on home video. So, how...

Review: A Good Day to Die Hard (JimmyO's take)

NOTE: I've been reviewing each of the previous films from this franchise all week long, any of which you can read here: DIE HARD , DIE HARD 2: DIE HARDER , DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE , LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD . PLOT :When John McClane’s son Jack is arrested in Russia, the detective gets on a plane in hopes to help his troubled spawn. Once he arrives he soon comes to the...

PLOT: John McClane ( Bruce Willis ) travels to Russia to see his estranged son- Jack ( Jai Courtney ) who's been arrested for murder. Turns out, Jack is a CIA agent tasked with retrieving an infamous Russian political prisoner- Yuri ( Sebastian Koch ), with links to Chernobyl. REVIEW: DIE HARD as we knew it ended a long time ago. 1995's WITH A VENGEANCE was the...

Exclusive 1:1 Interview with A Good Day To Die Hard star Jai Courtney!

Over the past few weeks I’ve become increasingly aware of Jai Courtney – the Australian actor who garnered attention for his work in “Spartacus: War of the Damned” as Varro. The actor was plenty badass fighting against Tom Cruise in JACK REACHER and he now stars as Bruce Willis ’ son in A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD. When I sat down with Jai, we talked about DIE HARD and how the role came...

Cool Videos: Comedians Key and Peele recount all five Die Hard films with "Bruce Willie"

I haven't seen Key and Peele's show on Comedy Central yet, but after this video I think it may be time to give it a proper look.  In this skit, the two comedians play a pair of valet's who pass the time by talking about none other than the DIE HARD franchise, recounting all their favorite moments from the "Bruce Willie" series from the first film to the most recent, A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD. ...

Exclusive 1:1 Interview with A Good Day To Die Hard Star Mr. Bruce Willis!

There are a few things that terrify me. The idea of walking into a room with Bruce Willis – one of my childhood heroes – and being far too nervous to carry on a conversation is one of them. That is how I felt as I was prepping talking to the man whose film credits include PULP FICTION, MOONRISE KINGDOM, LOOPER, THE SIXTH SENSE and the DIE HARD franchise. I love John McClane! The DIE HARD...

Cool Videos: The doh-riffic trailer for A Good Clay to Die Hard

I am convinced now more than ever that DIE HARD 6 will have to be fully Claymation. This stop motion trailer for A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD is friggin awesome. It looks like DIE HARD meets Gumby in the best way possible. No matter how you approach it, A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD is never going to approach the levels of the first three movies in the John McClane franchise, let alone the...
