Live Free or Die Hard...

Opens today so discuss amongst yourselves. I probably won't see it until tommorrow, but this one blurb from rotten tomatoes gives me hope...

"Live Free or Die Hard has more explosive action than the first three combined. Of course, the first three were more situational, but it's not a bad thing to go bigger. It doesn't feel like they ran out of ideas. On the contrary, because they push it so hard, Live Free or Die Hard has action so inventive I've never seen anything like it before."

and

"For all the talk of the PG-13, there is more carnage in this movie than in any R-rated film I can remember. Really, PG-13 is the new R. They play a sound effect over the MF but you know what he's saying. He still calls people names like jerk-off."

Is there hope?

As is typical, it depends on who you believe. 78% positive thus far.

I'm stoked for Ratatouille myself. 100% positive thus far.

*edit* Re: the Pg-13 vs R rating, this is an interesting read.

...but I can tell you that if you were worried about the PG-13 rating the film has received, you can stop fretting. This is an R-rated film masquerading as a PG-13.

...
Sure, this is the least wet Die Hard film, but it’s still a very violent movie, with dozens of people being killed by gunfire, more probably killed in car accidents of varying stripes, a number of seemingly serious injuries, and one guy chopped to pieces in a really big fan. It makes you wonder just what the fuck a PG-13 even means anymore. It makes you realize how totally broken the rating system is.

I can't wait to see it. Big fan of the Die-Hard films.

Won't see it on the opening night though, I'll wait a few days before I go and see it.

I saw an extended preview on tv that made me put down the new Optimus that I was transforming...


It was the scene in the truck and the Jet is shooting at him...It was pretty killer.

Could be worth it.

I saw a preview showing last night. 2 Thumbs way up. I don't know if I'd agree that it's the best Die Hard ever, but I definitely enjoyed it, and, again, it's got all the good McLane stuff, but it also points out some REAL threat issues while doing it. Thuroughly pleased.

I'll see it, but I don't know when. Transformers is dominating my life right now with a possible opening this Saturday for me seeing it.

I just came from seeing it and I have to say that it rivals the first in being the best in the series.

I went in without any expectations of this movie and I can say without a doubt it rocked. Tons of awesomeness all around.

The big thing I noticed about it being PG-13 was the lack of blood, but its not really missed.

Check this movie out, its well worth it and a great addition to the franchise.
