Perhaps I hoped for too much. But I loved the first Die Hard and remain a Bruce Willis fan, so I keep going to the sequels. This was disappointment #3. Too many preposterous stunts, too heavy on the big bangs, rather bland but smug dialog. While the premise was thought-provoking (just how secure are our most important computer sytems & services, and is it really a good idea to be so dependent on technology?), the menace didn't come across believably. Neither did the resolution--could Matthew (Justin Long) really thwart the baddie's plan that easily and quickly? I don't know enough about computer hacking to be able to tell, but it didn't feel realistic at all. The film seemed to be more interested in looking cool than being logical or smart.
