Okay, seeing as the Zukka v. Sethon poll currently has ~8x as many votes as any other poll, there is a SLIGHT possibility that I MAY have miscalculated and that Zukka MIGHT be in danger of destabilizing the entire bracket.

If you saw the version of this where I forgot to tag anything, no you didn't

I wasn’t a huge fan of Live Free or Die Hard (Die Hard 4) having said that there is something about the Action Man and Regular Normal Dude dynamic that has me absolutely off the wall insane. I think all action men should have to drag a regular guy around just to be in awe and also to scream in fear whenever the action man does something impossible and cool

Live Free or Die Hard (2007)

Live Free or Die Hard a.k.a. Die Hard 4.0 is a fair Bruce Willis action movie. It doesn’t feel like a Die Hard film - like at all - but the stunts and action setpieces are well done and exciting. So why can’t I muster much excitement for it?

NYPD detective John McClane (Bruce Willis) is bringing Matthew Farrell (Justin Long) to the FBI - he’s suspected of contributing to a nationwide computer outage. Actually, the outage is just the beginning of an elaborate cyber attack designed to disable the United State’s infrastructure. Having unknowingly written the algorithm that Thomas Gabriel (Timothy Olyphant) is employing, Farrell is now a target for assassination.

I’m at odds when it comes to Live Free or Die Hard. There are plenty of exciting scenes. While a part of your brain might die a little at the sight of McClane “throwing” a car at a helicopter, the pyrotechnics are impressive. Seeing him go toe-to-toe with Maggie Q is exciting, as are the gunfights and scenes of improvised weaponry. The cyber attack certainly offers meaningful stakes, as Thomas Gabriel has killed several people to orchestrate his plan and can use anything from redirected traffic to gas lines as weapons. You want him taken down if only so you can see that smug look on his face wiped away.

Unfortunately, the premise raises so many questions. When you find out why Gabriel is doing what he’s doing, you can’t help wondering if there wasn’t an easier way to go about it, particularly since he’s got the money necessary to set up a mobile hacker base, employ international assassins, put together convincing disguises, sneak explosives into key buildings, cover his tracks and more. You might want him stopped but he never achieves the level of menace previous Die Hard adversaries have. Some of this is due to the film’s constantly changing attitude towards hacking. Sometimes, it’s magic. I can buy Gabriel and his cronies cracking the government firewalls and security measures - they’ve been building towards this plan for months - but they can do basically anything with just a few keystrokes, including hacking into well-know hacker systems - which you would assume would be immune to that kind of thing. This tells us hackers are something to be feared… unless they aren’t. Anyone outside of Gabriel’s circle is a weiner who plays with dolls/action figures, “probably doesn’t go on a lot of dates”, and/or lives in their mother’s basement. It isn’t McClane’s meathead attitude misinterpreting what’s going on either. I mean, he does that plenty, showing an inability to wrap his mind around even basic computer-related concepts but Matt Farrell constantly proves himself the opposite of McClane: always frightened, whiny and nervous. He does manage to grow on you over time, however. McClane? I’m not sure. He gets things done because he’s an invincible action hero but there are very few times where he does any sort of outwitting. Mostly, he gets lucky.

Though I doubt the flaws I spotted while viewing Live Free or Die Hard would ever disappear, I suspect they would feel less important on a different day. The plot is unbelievable but certain elements feel true and as an action power fantasy, it's certainly impressive. Bruce Willis is still at the point in his career where he cares and brings his A-game. He and Justin Long make a pretty good double-act by the time the movie is over. I think I've talked myself into giving it a soft recommendation as a movie that will inevitably play on TV, probably around the holidays as part of a Die Hard marathon. At that point, you’re watching it “for free” from the comfort of your couch. That price feels right. (January 2, 2022)

How did I spend my Thanksgiving you might ask? Well, I found myself watching Die Hard 4: Live Free or Die Hard. I realized when Kennie JD covered in her Bad Movies and a Beat the most recent film with Justin Long that you know, I haven't actually sat down and watched Live Free or Die Hard in years and its kind of one of my guilty pleasure films.

So watching it today was lovely, I really enjoyed it. Not from it being like an objectively good movie prospective because I wouldn't classify it as that. It has so many plot holes, the government makes idiotic decisions, the terrorists are incredibly incompetent for supposedly being a bunch of smart guys and also make idiotic decisions but what can I say, I just really enjoy this movie. I love watching John having to go on this adventure basically across the East Coast trying to stop cyberterrorism he knows next to nothing about while protecting this young hacker kid who accidentally contributed to it. I am a sucker for bodyguard type stories, what can I say, I love them. I love the idea of being protected and I love in these stories when the protected, through their adventure, kind of figure out who they are, what they stand for and learn how to be a protector themselves, they learn that there is a hero in them.

So yes, while I'm not a big Die Hard franchise fan, this film has a special place in my heart because of its bodyguard dynamic because of the journey Justin Long's character Matt Farrell goes through, I love it. And I'm always down for watching it whenever the idea goes through my head. Again, not a good movie objectively speaking, probably not the best Die Hard film either but like I said I'm not going to be a good judge of that as I'm not really a big fan of the franchise, but it checks my boxes on things I like to see in stories so I can't apologize for loving this film for that.

And now I'm going to bury myself in Die Hard 4 fanfiction because I just want to read more about Matt's introspection on the hero's journey he just went through.
