For over two hours, we watch as McClane is dragged quickly into the twenty-first century as he learns about computers and just how much they control. His main focus is getting the bad guy to stop, and this becomes a personal mission for him, as it always does in these films, when his daughter is kidnapped by Gabriel. We have non-stop action, funny dialogue, and some great fight scenes that make this film worth seeing.
I was recently able to see the two-disc unrated edition, and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie from the first moment on. Mary Elizabeth Winstead comes in as McClane's daughter, and her performance is spot on. She is definitely her father's daughter. Justin Long is also one to watch. What I enjoyed most about this edition of the film, and what I think makes it the only edition of this film to buy, is the documentary on the second disc. We're taken step by step from concept to final product. This DVD topped the rental and sales charts the first week of its release, and there is no telling if it will do the same in its second. Yippie ki yay is right though. This DVD is a must own for any Die Hard fan.
