Is Live free or Die hard a good movie? - Blu-ray Forum

razor29 · 12-30-2007, 02:03 AM

Best buy is having on sale and Live free is $24 dollars and just wondering is it a good buy and is the movie any good?

It rivals the first Die Hard as far as the best movie in the franchise IMO.

The PQ is the best out of all 4 on Blu

turboedguy · 12-30-2007, 02:05 AM

I enjoyed it, great PQ.

dperrone · 12-30-2007, 02:05 AM

it is a typical Die Hard movie, very entertaining and yes, very realistic - LOL, No it is good (IMO)

iNCREDiPiNOY · 12-30-2007, 02:06 AM

The rating is PG-13, so I say no because we're waiting for unrated version.

clyon · 12-30-2007, 02:09 AM

Yes, definitely one of the better one's, it doesn't suck a$$ like the 2nd one. Lots of action, lots of explostions, very little CG, lot of (real) stunts, car crashs, lots of people dying.
5:5 PQ 5:5 AQ

If you have to have your five or six FU's, then by all means wait for the other version. Otherwise, their isn't any differences.

This is, besides Transformers, can't help it, the best movie of the year. And probably the best looking BD available, to me.

dperrone · 12-30-2007, 02:18 AM

plus you will like it, it is based on a true story !!!!!

Mensrea69 · 12-30-2007, 02:22 AM

I received the Die Hard box set for Christmas- It's awesome! Last Die hard fits in sequence. Not like Rocky 6. that bites like HD Discs.

richard lichtenfelt · 12-30-2007, 02:23 AM

Extremely entertaining. Reference quality video and audio.
Pull the trigger.

Actually, realism was supposed to be one of the hallmarks of the series...the first movie was a far more realistic action romp than anything that had been seen in the decade or so that preceded it.

With this new Die Hard, the action (though mostly done in-camera, which is admirable) bordered on ludicrous. Of course, With A Vengeance wasn't far off in terms of unbelievable action (no way Willis and Sam Jackson survive the fall onto the cargo ship).

2/5 for me in terms of the movie.

That said, the disc is reference quality in both the picture and audio categories.

What is wrong with you people? Can we please use italics when we are being sarcastic? Otherwise, I don't know if you people are mental or what...

Transformers... nearly the best movie of the year huh... What is this world coming to?

It is a GREAT movie. Expecially for action fans. Great PQ and AQ. I really enjoyed watching this one. A must for any serious Blu-ray collector. Highly recommend it!

razor29 · 12-30-2007, 02:38 AM

Alright, I 'm convinced it IS worth buying plus i'll be saving $10 dollars. It's a go. Thanks everyone.

Ditto. I'll be picking that one up in a minute.

finalfantasy · 12-30-2007, 02:42 AM

From the beginning to the end, the movie rocks and looks exceptional on PS3...all I know is, Mac guy was really good...he added much to the movie...

That chick could kick some royal butt!!!

You won't regret it...

SolidBlu · 12-30-2007, 02:51 AM

a very good action movie with excellent pq & aq, two thumbs up

kowhite · 12-30-2007, 03:00 AM

It's a fun action movie. I don't think as good as 1 and 3 though. Not even 2 really.

But it's fun.

Freis968 · 12-30-2007, 03:04 AM

EXCELLENT MOVIE! I rented it on Pay Per View and I am going to be buying it for sure. Thanks for the headsup on the sale.

I was not sure about the "Hello, I'm A Mac" guy, but he did a great job.
