John McClane travels to Russia to hep out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover that Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces.
not the best in the series, we all saw the trailer a thousand times, making it come out on valentines day didn't do much for it. lets be serious would women like this as a present?
the film is based in Russia therefore there are alot of subtitles, so be prepared to read. plenty of action however far fetch in some parts is just beyond limits.
Die Hard 5 is a good film. There, I said it. Yes, its saddled with a ropey script by Hollywood hack Skip Woods ('Swordfish', 'Hitman') and journeyman director John Moore ('Max Payne') isn't exactly John McTerrin or Renny Harlin but there's more than enough action and vintage, John McClaine one-liners to satisfy fans of the series.
The minimal, but intermittently compelling, plot sees McClaine's son (promising newcomer Jai Courtney) as a CIA agent in Moscow sent to protect a key witness in a trial against some Mafioso oligarch. Things don't go according to plan; enter smirking, frowning, grizzled old timer Bruce Willis to save the day...sort of. Willis and Courtney work well as the mismatched father and son duo wrecking havoc and on the run from all manner of gun totting heavies. The nuclear heist themed storyline is, frankly, preposterous; but 'Die Hard 5' is over and done with in 98 minutes, so you don't really have time to notice.
'Die Hard 1-3' is the definitive trilogy, 'Live Free or Die Hard' a.k.a. 'Die Hard 4.0' and 'A Good Day to Die Hard' are entertaining also rans.

Bruce Willis reprises his role as the vest-wearing NY cop John McClane in this fifth instalment of the archetypal action franchise. This time around, McClane travels to Russia to help out his son Jack (Jai Courtney), who, unbeknownst to his father, is an undercover CIA operative trying to stop the theft of nuclear weapons. With the Russian mafia snapping at their heels and time running out, the pair soon discover that although their approaches may differ slightly, the end result is certainly no less explosive.
