An Insult to the Original "Die Hard" Cast and Crew
|
I was so disgusted at the end of this wretched film, I write this review to accomplish two tasks: vent my frustration at the time & money I wasted; warn those of you who haven't seen it yet before you plunge into the pool with no water. I write this assuming you have seen "Die Hard".
First, apart from the gratuitous scenes of sex and nudity, the crew here attempted to duplicate every scene from "Die Hard". The way they were done was either absurd, ridiculous, or just stupid.
Second...the acting! Much has been said about Smith's atrocious acting (if you could call it acting at all). However, all of the actors were lousy. Phony European accents. Male models trying to masquerade as terrorists. The alleged criminal mastermind' quoting Shakespeare, in a pathetic attempt to appear sophisticated. Poor delivery of lines. Plain unlikable characters in general. etc.
Third, the way this "takeover" was carried out seemed implausible. If you bother to watch this mess, consider how believable' it was in "Die Hard", and how unbelievable' it is in this junk. Shootouts
Fourth, clichA A s...so many clichA A s. If you bother to watch them, they will become extremely obvious. Especially the concept of the double cross'.
Fifth...continuity. I guess with a movie with no budget, things like continuity will go by the waste side.
Finally... the gratuitous sex and nudity. With a low-budget, direct-to-video piece of swine like this with Anna Nicole, this element had to exist, even though the scenes did not improve the so-called story. This had to be done obviously to captivate the men. It didn't work for me.
The cast and crew behind the original "Die Hard" should be appalled at this. I found this movie an utter insult to the cast and crew that made the original DH so great. This movie should have never been made. It should be burnt. |
