John Dies At The End is a SciFi/Horror/Comedy with a non-linear plot structure. Two young friends discover a world of zombies, ghosts, alternate worlds, and aliens. They endeavor to save the world. A sure hit for genre fans and a potential pleasure for everyone else.
The one hiccup of the film is the casting of Chase Williamson as the lead David Wong. Williamson's self important, sarcastic, idiotic, faux-hipster attitude puts a damper on some scenes. A different actor, any actor, would have made the roll more harmonious. But he doesn't take away that much from an ambitious idea playfully executed.
A fun mind-bending ride.
See It.
A Good Day To Die Hard is a pathetic excuse for an action movie and a blatant cash grab at anyone still invested in the
Die Hard franchise. The film contains no character and virtually no plot. A high school sophomore in Drama 101 could have written a better script. Bruce Willis has no trace of the wit or depth that was once John Mcclane. Most of the time he seems to be reading off cue cards. You can see Willis counting his paycheck with every line he grunts.
The movie follows no sense of logic and doesn't have a real person in it.
Don't See It.
