A Good Day to Die Hard

"Both assaultive and tiresome, 'A Good Day to Die Hard' barely registers on the action movie Richter scale. It goes bang, it goes boom, and then it blessedly goes away. (...) Rating: ★½ (out of four)" 

"McClane has been stripped of any real traces of an actual three-dimensional character. We feel as if we're watching Bruce Willis in a Bruce Willis movie in which Bruce Willis can survive anything while taking out the villains, video-game style (...) Rating: ★½ (out of four)" 

"I actually wanted this one to be good. Or at least decent. Or at least a reminder of what got us all fired up about the first Die Hard in 1988. But 'A Good Day To Die Hard', the fifth in a creatively exhausted series, is total crap (...) Rating: ★ (out of four)" 

"Obnoxious, over the top and often dull. (...) Rating: ★½ (out of four)" 

"Isn't just the weakest of the 'Die Hard' pictures; it's a lousy action movie on its own terms (...) Rating: ★½ (out of four)" 

"Everything that made the first 'Die Hard' memorable — the nuances of character, the political subtext, the cowboy wit — has been dumbed down or scrubbed away entirely" 

"I don't think it knows where it's going. I'm not even sure it cares."
