Blog From The Bench

I'm not going to say a lot about this movie except that I'm happy to have discovered that I enjoyed it. I went in expecting the worst, but it's nowhere near as bad as we all feared. Coming from the man who brought us Underworld, this one truly could have sucked, but it doesn't. We've still got the cranky McClane, tough as ever, going through wild chases and gunfights to save the day. The only flaw is that John is getting too good, too smart, too much like Superman in that he can do everything now. He's losing his everyman persona. Aside from that, the only thing that pissed me off was the blatant and inexcusable absence of the complete "yippe-ki-yay motherf***er."
