Yippee Ki Yay, well, you know the rest. John McClane returns to the big screen, bald and alienated from his family, in the fourth installment of the Die Hard films. The plot of the movie begins with a terrorist who breaches the FBI computer system by hiring hand-picked computer hackers to do the dirty work. Instead of being paid, they are assassinated by the terrorist mastermind, Thomas Gabriel, played by Timothy Olyphan.
McClane, an NYPD police detective, is sent to find a known hacker involved with the FBI’s system, Matthew Farrell, played by Justin Long. Both Farrell and McClane escaped and made their way to Washington D.C., where a stream of events occurred that sent the world in an uproar and left the FBI in shambles.
This movie is jam packed with action scenes from start to finish. Willis is at his best.
