fajrdrako | Live Free or Die Hard...

Tonight I went with Sandi, Pat and Lyn to see Live Free or Die Hard. Loved it. It wasn't the explosions or the stunts or the chase scenes, it was the wit and the heroism and the characters. John McClane is and always has been deliciously heroic. And convincingly so.

I also liked Maggie Q as one of the deliciously dangerous supervillains he was up against. Justin Long had a lot of charm as Matt Farrell, the cowardly computer hacker who finds himself. Of course I liked him - he had a Wolverine action figure in his apartment. My kind of guy. And he got the girl in the end, at least potentially. Kevin Smith was rther delightfully typecast as the crochety computer nerd.

Great fun.
