John McClane travels to Russia to get his son out of trouble.
Starring- Bruce Willis,Jai Courtney
Director- John Moore
Bruce Willis is wasted in this movie.By wasted i mean he himself knows this movie sucks.He utters puny dialogues which have no fire and are a pale imitations of his once witty dialogues from the old Die Hard movies.Jai Courtney who plays the son ,isnt too great either.Both prove to be dull and boring.The supporting cast are useless too.
The story for Die Hard5 ,is dull.There are couple of twists at the end ,but till then its just boring.The movie can be cut into 3 long action sequences.The car chase ,the ballroom shootout ,and the Chernobyl site explosions.Add some talking ,and some random half baked villainous idea ,and the result is Die Hard 5.
Direction is poor.All the previous Die Hards were exciting ,but staying awake through Die Hard 5 is a challenge.The pacing of the movie tries to be fast ,but the action is predictable.The poor acting of the cast doesnt help things either.
Overall Die Hard 5 finally marks the death of the 80's franchise.Give this a miss.
Acting- 1/5
Story- 1/5
Direction- 0.5/5
Action- 2.5/5
