A Good Day to Die Hard Review

[@33melonpaws77]

"We're not really a hugging family" "Well, we were before you came along, my angsty 28 yo son."

[@X2Magneto]

Die Hard 4 was great for many reasons, one of them was that it felt like a good place to end it. Yeah, you could keep going, but one of the implicit points of it was that this was the last ride of a guy whose time had long past. Part 5 is an ill advised coda to something that was already a coda.

[@whisperienced]

People hate Jai Courtney for a lot of his roles but I didn't even realize he was in Spartacus and his character was honestly one of the best in that series.

[@MrDanAng1]

15:51 Yuri was a billionare... but a billion russian roubles is currently worth about 12 million euros. Or the other way around, a billion euros is worth nearly 83 billion roubles. So, this at least MAY be a good enough incentive, increase the fortune tenfolds of times.

[@snackers199]

Plot twist: The Anti-Radiation Spray is Radaway from the Fallout universe. Die Hard 6 ends with John McClaine ending nuclear war. "Old Habits Die Hard"

[@tenebrousoul9368]

Dying Hard Never Changes

[@sirkylanthered]

Actually Decker what they got wrong was claiming that it was neutralizing the radiation particles. What that chemical does is bind the particles to a heavier element so they'll sink to the floor. Its used for clean up of small areas affected by high radiation poisoning, and it makes it so you can breath without a mask, and "wash away" the radiation now on the floor. But that chemical is insanely expensive and hard to get a hold of. On top of that it takes a HELL of a lot longer than the few sprays they gave it.

[@desther7975]

The verb is breathe, not breath.

[@5TailFox]

"Jack" has always been an alternative/nickname for the name John. It's why you often hear people refer to John F. Kennedy as "Jack" Kennedy.

[@eathanisepic3713]

Hey! I just stumbled upon your channel while looking at Hellraiser reviews and i found yours and I ended up watching all of them. Your content is awesome and i really enjoy your vidoes. keep up the awesome work!

[@bomcabedal]

... in fact it ends up in Ukraine (Pripyat), not Russia. Not something you're aware of in the movie, of course. One of the things that seriously bugged me is how nothing in this movie has consequences, which makes creating tension nigh impossible. Wounds that would one scene kill someone (and are pointed out in dialogue) are never referred to again, going into a contaminated area without proper gear is "okay", but most of all there is no backlash to the Moscow ring road getting wasted by an armored vehicle on a rampage and a military helicoper blasting the f•ck out of a Moscow landmark (one of the Seven Sisters). Believe you me, that minister would not be spending time walking majestically or getting a massage in those circs.

[@someguy9284]

I love Die Hard but A Good Day to Die Hard is an abomination. I give it a 0/5 and I feel generous today.

[@vladyvhv9579]

It's still better thand Die Hard 2, in my book.

[@laughingmask3118]

Jack is a nickname for John and Jonathan and has been since at least the 17th century. Jack Rackham's first name was John.

[@robogreek3157]

the best part of the movie was when Mclain said " Traffic sucks !" and the cab driver said...SEX?!?!?...I KNOW WHERE YOU GET SEX LOL

[@jamesroper4952]

This movie is the least Die Hard of the entire Die Hard franchise.

[@zotarthemighty]

Actually, Jack is an acceptable nickname for someone named John. It's a pretty common thing.

[@DeckerShado]

zotar the mighty Gah, that's almost as confusing as Dick being Richard... Next thing I'll find out is that Decker is interchangeable with Cuntwaffle.

[@Souledge5]

It isn't? huh, the more you know :D

[@judsongaiden9878]

@@DeckerShado Handsome Jack used to go by "John."

[@MrMiddleWick]

That's late as fuck to respond, but given how their relation looked like before the movie it only makes sense that they wouldn't like to be called Jr

[@carebearskinrug1229]

i was so confused the first time i had ever heard him called Jack Kennedy... i thought it was the three boys: robert, theodore and john: bobby, teddy and... jack.... that was when i realized that jack isn't a real name that people give their child, it's a nickname for john, especially in childhood or to those "familiar" i presume that they chose to call the boy "jack" instead of "johnny" or "junior"...

[@g-dog_eswshockwave]

You know what’s funny? This film has only 13 uses of the F-word. The unrated version of Live Free or Die Hard has 28 uses of the F-word. So the “PG-13 Die Hard film” has more F bombs than the R Rated Die Hard film.

[@jamesroper4952]

I don't even consider this movie to be a die hard movie. To me it's just random action movie starring Bruce Willis.

[@MLPDethDealr32]

i hated this one. it felt rushed and not like a Die Hard movie. at all.

[@leewright1]

Also, Bruce couldn't give a shit anymore no matter how much money he's paid and Jai Courtney is void of charisma, chemistry and likeability.

[@nightdagger112]

If you think carrots are harmless Decker watch "shoot em up" and you will see the truth. (Serious note Shoot em up is one of my favorite action movies)

[@jeremiahdansereau2950]

Decker, I can 100% relate to your pain in trying to get the subtitles to render on this movie

[@stepbro9042]

"The 007 of Plainfield NJ" Bruh I live in Plainfield

[@coreyb1295]

I thought the exact same thing when he said "we're not a hugging family"

[@axelwulf6220]

"Don't bring a carrot to a gunfight!" Obviously you haven't seen Shoot 'Em Up

[@amanibob1416]

Carrot to a gun fight... Yeah, I've heard of Mr. "What's up, doc!?"

[@Raygathex]

For the record, my grandfathers name was John but my grandmother always called him Jack. I think its a nickname....

[@skyhazel6205]

"Jack" is actually an accepted nickname for "John", so Jack being John McClane Jr. actually works. Although I have no idea HOW "Jack" became a nickname for "John"...

[@ShaggertSRL]

It's because the Scottish word for John is Jock which sounds close enough to Jack I guess lmao

[@viralshadow]

Don't bring a carrot to a gun fight? Guess you haven't seen Shoot Em Up

[@alexclark8171]

I put cc on the video and the subs say "is a booty predator daughter's kiss ohh caching us" 1:47

[@xxoxia]

I always find it funny how John's son in this is called Jack, while in the others, he's always been called John Jr.

[@Cwhirt910]

Well he doesn't really like his father at the start of the movie so he tries to distant himself from John, so it's understandable he wouldn't go by John Jr or Jr, but as Jack which is often used as a nickname for John.

[@danmarsh6698]

Great video like always Decker

[@scottsrush]

3 out of 5?! This movie is a zero out of 5!

[@joshnaver3994]

Beggining the review with a subtitle rant was great, brings memories of when tv editors forget to add them and I get plot lost o.O

[@jasoncase9481]

Wow his son was 1 of the main henchman and assassin in the great movie Jack Reacher.Also I think he was in the divergent movies.

[@indubualisticism123]

Hey Decker, are you going to do the tremors films? I think they would make for great reviews.

[@cruisematt8585]

I lost it when the subtitles came up in Spanish lolol

[@Howlrunner82]

Okay, that Subtitles joke was AWESOME 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheWritrzblok]

I had a thought on why Jack smashed the phone to where perhaps he thought the bad guys had tracked John to the safe house via his smartphone GPS. But if that were the case, why didn't he think to grab the phone and chuck it out the window when they were en route to the safe house? Anyways, just a thought.

[@GhoulRUSva]

Also, on a point a believability. If they were REALLY taking a car from Moscow to fucking Chernobyl, it would probably take them a long time before they could get to the bad guys. But what I like in this movie, is Yulia Snigir' she is just so damn hot.

Not so fun fact: While this movie keeps suggesting they're in Russia, Chernobyl still sits in Ukraine. thumbs up for movie makers. yay.

[@DragonFoxx99]

Hiya Decker, great review, but I have to let you know that the first helicopter that opened fire on John and Jack was a Mil Mi-24 'Hind' not a Mil Mi-26 'Halo'. I know your need for accuracy

[@lordsubziro2824]

DragonFoxx99 Kudos on the accuracy test. After Decker called the F-35 Raptor a Harrier in his Live Free and Die Harder review, I suspect he might misname the Hind gunship is this review. I was right. And as a side note, the gunship was a real Mi-24 Hind-E. It was identified in the Special Features on the DVD. Great job!!!

[@sasavulic1236]

[@godzilla2030]

Can you review the John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy?

[@GanonGhidorah]

Amazing; almost every word Decker said in the regards to the movie's quality was almost directly out of my mouth. On the whole, I'd have to give the movie a "Meh" at best, to a "Drudge" at Worst. Out of all of the Die Hard movies that weren't intended to BE Die Hard movies, how is it that THIS one feels the MOST like you'd expect those others to feel? The movie feels and flows absolutely nothing LIKE a Die Hard movie, and the forced nature surrounding the plot with John reconnecting with his Son, just seem like an arbitrary contrivance to FORCE him into the plot. All in all; this felt like a movie where all of the answers were effectively handed to both the characters AND the audience; which is NOT how a Die Hard movie works. Most often, when all of the twists happen, John is usually learning about them the same time we do as well. But in this movie...all of the main characters are established and both we and John learn about them through second-hand. And worse, they barely have any character to speak of. What's even worse is how unnecessary John felt for this movie. You could effectively replace him with some other Generic American Cop, and it wouldn't feel different. John MacClane is the guy who is constantly thwarting almost every step of the bad-guy's plans; he's on them like a bad-itch. This movie? He falls into a Trap, gets out of it, and proceeds straight to the climax, where he immediately learns the truth about everything. Even the action in this movie was tedious; it got to the point where during the first chase scene of the movie, I said, "This has gone on for too long."

[@JustinCoasters]

Not just the director of Behind Enemy Lines, But also Max Payne

[@MutaScale]

Not the biggest Jai Courtney fan... and this film didn't help, but i can't wait for him as Captain Boomerrang in "Suicide Squad". Overall, another awesome review on a not so good film Decker! Any possible chance we'll see any reviews on the Children of the Corn series? (After "Summer of Freddy Vs. Jason" of course)

Remember Cold War era movies, when we knew what Russian gear looked like but couldn't get it to film with, so iconic movies like Rambo and Red Dawn had terrible looking mockups? Yeah, now even mediocre cash grabs like this can have genuine Hinds to model the 3d off of. Times sure change.

Jack is a nickname for John, so is Jack McClane also known as "John McClane, Jr.?" And why does Bruce shoot right-handed now even though he's left-handed IRL - and it's been canon to the mythos that John McClane is left-handed? 12:39 Why is the stock folded on Courtney's rifle? It should have been unfolded already. Why can't movie people get this right? Folding stocks are only folded for storage purposes. 13:38 No S.T.A.L.K.E.R. reference? Denied! 18:19 Called it. And I haven't even seen this one. 18:21 Jack is a nickname for John. What, you didn't know that? Even Handsome Jack used to go by the name "John."
