What is the name of the song/video that justin Long waslistening to when Bruce Willis came to his apartment? It
was a heavy metal chick band. Sounded a little like Kittie, but I was unfamilar with the song and didn't see them listed in the credits. Love the metal chick bands!!!

Just off the top of my head, I think it was Flyleaf. Not 100% sure.

Deftones

Sounded like Flyleaf to me, too.

Abe.

Flyleaf all the way.

Saw it today, thought it was a good summer popcorn flick. IMO not nearly as good as alot people on here think.

Abe.

I liked it a lot more than Transformers, which I ended up seeing today. I was kinda expecting more "car" action from Transformers, that I actually got from Live Free or Die Hard.

Cool. Thanks guys, I will have to check them out.

Immediately after the crash you can see her left leg come up. And while it's not a very good argument, she's entirely on the hood the whole ride there, so technically it's the car smashing into things on the way to the elevator shaft. That, however, doesn't mean she didn't get NAILED by the car at the very beginning...the kind of thing which would stop a lot of people from flipping and jumping around.

Wow, this movie was boring! Perhaps explosions just don't demand my attention the way they used to? Regardless, it doesn't hurt the franchise but it was still an unnecessary addition.

A-aron

ok .. just saw it .. really liked it, but would have liked it more if it wasn't for the massive editing snafu right after the . When Willis is talking about winning, there were some nasty cuts, and numerous times when Long's character is obviously talking in the back, but we are hearing (and seeing) Willis talking.

Also, there is one point when Willis and Long stop for a scene and then take off running, only to come around a corner right back to where they were to begin with (the sign on the window was the same)

I loved the reference to DH (Agent Johnson) gave me a little laugh.

I would hope that this does well enough to warrant another film. Perhaps allowing McTiernan (sp) to close out the series. Finally let John retire and settle down somewhere in peace. Also, bring back Powell or Thornberg. John doesn't need to get back with his wife, just to have one last round of ass-kicking before hanging up the badge and vanishing for good.

I just saw the new commercial for Live Free or Die Hard on tv, and it actually uses the Die Hard song. Kudos to Guyz Nite!

That song rocks!

Wow. This was a great movie. I don't see how anyone couldn't enjoy it. Saw it last night and was blown away. There were some terrible edits where you could see it was supposed to be R which sucked, but what can you do. The worst of which was Long being dubbed and the audio not going with his lip movement. Only other 'minor' thing that bugged me was Lucy's age. She was what, five in the first film? That would put her at about 25 for this film which didn't appear to be the case.

It got pretty absurd towards the end with the jet, but it was definitely a fun ride and have no major complaints. Absolutely loved the "agent Johnson" line, a musical cue from the first film, Lucy undecided on her last name and Lucy telling McClane there were only 5 guys left.

My only real complaint was the climax. It seemed a bit rushed in the hanger when Willis showed up.

I will definitely be picking up the R or unrated DVD. Great flick.

Snowmaker

Well, the girl that played the original Lucy was born in August 1981. So she was probably 6 when that movie was filmed. This movie is 19 years later, so you're about right.

Chrisedge

Just saw it last night. Liked it a lot. I liked DH1 & 2, not 3. Airplane scene at end a bit unbelievable, but what action film doesn't have a little unbelievable stuff in it.

Seantn

The girl that played this Lucy was born in '84, it's not that big of a difference.

Michael Corvin

Oh, there was also some KILLER camera work in this film. The chase scene with the helicopter had one sweeping move that blew me away.

RedCock2005

not so bad considering this is the 4th series... usually they stop being a good movies right after the 1st

the beginning was alright... then it gets better... the jet thingy reminds me alot of True Lies... too bad. it makes the movie less original in away

but overall, much better than any summer blockbuster this yar... so far...

Michael Corvin

Definitely. The elevator shaft had a Lost World vibe to it.

Depression

Heh, True Lies really cemented the concept of having an epic battle with a jet didn't it?

Last year it was MI3 that was getting the True Lies comparisons due to the entire bridge sequence.

B.A.

I enjoyed everything but the retarded sequence w/ the F-35.

***1/2 out of five.

das Monkey

Agreed. That was stupid. I also was annoyed at the "I thought your name was Gennaro" explanation. Her using the McClane name should have been enough. It's insulting to spell it out like that. Everything else was a lot better than I expected, even if everything even remotely related to technology was absurd. There is some seriously badass camera work in this one. The audio looping was hilariously bad, though. Stupid PG-13 edit. I had a better time at this than I did Transformers.

das

Edit: still love that song. "And we know what the basic gist is: there ain't no Alan, and it's not Christmas."

invisiblegt

I am still personally hoping for the video to appear as an extra on the DVD. I mean, with it being used during some of the more recent television ads, people are aware of it.

RichC2

Saw this today, enjoyed it a lot, except for that stupid jet sequence.

Always good to see the cast of District B13 getting work.

B.A.

My eyes rolled to the back of my head during the name explanation.

And the looping was awful during a few scenes - I thought I was watching the Turner cut or something.

Negatives aside - it was still far and away better than I ever thought it would be.


My dad rolled his eyes and made a snide remark about the Hollywoodization of the top secret data facility. He enjoyed himself as well, apart from the infamous jet sequence.
