Thank God Bruce Willis can act and is credible(still) as an action star. I was disappointed with the movie for a few reasons: 1. Not as "smart" as the first and third installments-more of a formula flick. Think "True Lies" more than "Die Hard." 2. Bad Guy-- ZERO charisma or screen presence when compared to, say, Alan Rickman or Jeremy Irons. Couldn't really hate him. 3. Suspension of disbelief-- In the past, we saw McClane get beat up, drag himself around and still win-- and we could squint and believe. There is one scene in here where the watcher can tell that someone thought they had to add just one more thing to make it exciting-- and instead made it totally unbelievable. No spoilers, but you will know. (and the scene is a cliché' anyway). Fun, no points.
