Live free or die hard

Die Hard 4.0 (2007)

Its a very good work out movie! (That is if you're working out and you're as old as Bruce Willis OR you think that mentioning your working out schedule would get some honeys to this blog, nobody ever visits anyway!) Its like watching the latest Indiana Jones movie : Kingdom of crystal skull, with a worn out old man playing the lead paired with a young gun (who, thankfully, is not Bruce's son...his daughter falls for him though!) Atleast that was a Steven Speilberg movie!

This movie is only about action. No brainer, blasts of fire, choppers and car action. The scenes of the F-35 jet hovering around the flyovers and how a running car takes out a helicopter are very well done. But thats about it. There isn't much to talk about in this movie. The story is too predictable, the characters are too stereotypical.

I would rather suggest you go read the book "The fall of arms" from which this movie is inspired.

Rate - 1.5/5

Another Jason Statham movie!

Transporter 3 (2008)

Why O why, did I go for this movie? Action, Jason, sequel (Well, we all know sequels suck. But I haven't seen the previous two!) I saw the movie because of Amogh. And I made him pay for it. (No gay innuendos!)

A baseless car crashing movie with some good fight scenes and an absolutely unecessary love story element. I mean we really could've done without the actress and used the money to hire better writers to write a better story, or atleast a better ending, that leaves people in a jaw drop when they leave the theatre. The only thing that dropped when I left the theatre is my belief in spontaneous movie plans!

Whatever said, I think I've kinda started liking this Jason Statham guy. Though he can't act for nuts, he has an awesome body and an equally husky voice to go with it. He fits his roles like Death Race where he doesn't really have to do much. Or maybe I've just seen a lot of his movies lately (Death Race, Transporter 3, The Italian Job and Lock, stock and two smoking barrels)

Audi vs Mercedes is the only upside of the film.
