A Die Hard/Die Hard Ii/Die Hard With A Vengeance/Live Free Or Die Hard/Good Day To Die Hard [DVD]

The "Die Hard" movies are my favorite. Buying it last summer was well worth it, and Bruce Willis playing as John McClane who has a bad habit of being at the wrong place at the wrong time is awesome. The quality of the picture is crystal clear, and the surround sound is loud as ever, and I love it! This franchise is the best, and you won't be disappointed.

Such a great series! Love the it’s not what you thought it was moments! Makes it a thriller action movie! More Please!

Blu-ray transfer for all 5 movies is very good, most importantly for the first 3 movies which are a bit older than the 4th and the 5th movies. There are no visible damages to the films; they all look very clean. Special Features are quite satisfactory.As for the movies themselves, I regard the first 3 movies very highly in terms of story, action and entertainment quality. I give them 5 stars.Live Free or Die Hard (the 4th installment in the series) is when the quality of the franchise starts to go down. Ridiculous action sequences ruin the movie. I understand Die Hard is an action movie and we need to suspend belief to a certain extent but some of the scenes in Live Free or Die Hard go well beyond the acceptable threshold.Spoiler Alert for Live Free or Die Hard: The following comments contain spoilers!!The scene that bothers me the most is the scene when McClane drives the SUV 70 miles per hour and hits the evil Asian female character, Mai Linh (Maggie Q) and she manages to stay on top of the hood of the SUV; she should have been thrown off with broken bones, but wait, McClane continues to drive the SUV with Mai on top of the hood, he drives the SUV through gates of steel with Mai still on top of the hood (she should have been squashed to a pulp), but wait, he continues to drive the SUV through a wall, and Mai is still holding onto to hood of the SUV, but wait, finally SUV falls down tunnel in a vertical position, hanging upside down, and Mai comes up climbing up the SUV to go after McClane. Maybe the director thought he was directing a terminator movie and mistaken the character of Mai for a female terminator cyborg who is indestructible. That whole sequence is just ridiculous. Another over-the-top action sequence happens earlier in the movie when the power goes down inside the tunnel and the cars, for some inexplicable reason, continue to drive 70-80 miles per hour and one of the cars comes flying in the air in a horizontal position and hits the two cars on the ground crashing on top of them, with McCane and Matt ducking just in time to save themselves. There are a couple of more scenes similarly over-the-top which I will not mention.A Good Day to Die Hard is just a bad movie overall. They wanted to make it different but putting the story in Russia but that didn’t help much. It’s just very formulaic, predictable and the action sequences are ridiculously over-the-top, even worse than the ones in Live Free or Die Hard. Live Free or Die Hard sequences were physically impossible but at least they built sets to shoot the scenes which created a realism from special effects perspective. A Good Day to Die Hard sequences seem to be done with more CIG elements.Despite my criticisms of the last 2 movies, I still think this is a very good collection to own for Die Hard fans or any action movie fan. The first 3 movies, the special features for all movies at the price of $20 make this box set worthy to add to your collection.

Great way to spend an evening. Enjoyed watching these films in the comfort of my home.

The item arrived quickly and in excellent condition. In the ongoing debate, I support the belief that Die Hard movies are Christmas movies. They are a family tradition just like A Christmas Carol (any version), How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Dr. Suess' The Grinch, and every Rankin Bass Anime. I watch all of the Hallmark Christmas marathons.

If you're a Bruce Willis fan -- had this to your collection!
