OK, OK. I'm really late to the party and everyone on the planet has watched A Good Day to Die Hard and given their 69 cents. Most people mildly enjoyed it or didn't like it. So what does this Basement Dweller think? Stick with me. John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover that Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces. I'll start with what doesn't work. This isn't a Die Hard movie. It's a big, Hollywood action movie that John McClane just happened to wander into. McClane is a superman who lives through more near-death experiences in the first half hour than a normal human being could ever survive. This is contrary to what made the original Die Hard work so well -- a normal guy caught in extraordinary circumstances. The whole father/son dynamic is forced. Why does Jack need to work for the CIA? And why doe...
