    Not really suprising isn't it?

    At the end of the day an action film such as this is not attempting to win an oscar for scriptwriting. The story is there to tie in the action scenes with some sense of cohesion. As such the film succeeds in what it set out to do. The action scenes are excellent and the overall pace of the film doesn't let up much throughout, although some are a little bit self-indulgent.

    If you want a good story, watch a Shakespeare film. Want plenty of action? Watch this film and accept it for what it is.

    Re: Die Hard 4 Movie

    A terrorist organization of hackers is trying to take control of America.

    Things I learned from Die Hard 4.0

    1. Hackers can type really fast on the keyboard by just pounding on it with their fingers and in just a few seconds, create an e-Bomb. (And get into other mainframes within seconds)

    2. Hackers work with excessively adorned GUIs and transparent screens.

    3. I had no idea how deadly accurate my cynicism was in this post until I saw this movie. There was an actual scene in there, about UPLOADING VIRUS. My mirth was uncontrollable. And my shock. Even zaza, who is not usually amused by anything, was amused.

    4. Hackers usually need to "Isolate APIs" before they "boot their server".

    5. All ultra-secure government/NSA/CIA servers have USB ports to which you can connect your device to. No drivers required!

    6. All of America's financial (and other) data can fit into a villain's portable flash disk. (And it's exactly 500 Terabytes in size)

    7. When shutting down an electricity grid, you are presented with a dialog box for confirmation to do so. It has the options "Yes" and "No"

    8. Hackers usually leave their webcams on and unsecured so that other evil hackers can take control of it and spy on them.

    9. You can hack into anything as long as you have a Nokia Communicator (and a USB cable as mentioned earlier).



    zaza: you owe me big time for this.

    Don't give me that nonsense. Give me your address, and you will receive your just rewards. I will send a burly man with a bat around to deliver them to you.
    I use VB 6, VB.Net 2003 and Office 2010



    Code:
    Excel Graphing | Excel Timer | Excel Tips and Tricks | Add controls in Office | Data tables in Excel | Gaussian random number distribution (VB6/VBA,VB.Net) | Coordinates, Vectors and 3D volumes

    I'll jump out of my window and survive a 40 foot fall. It's possible because I saw it in Die Hard 4.

    Mendhak, you missed one:-
    10. Having copied all of Americas financial data onto their flash disks, hackers are then able to 'syphon off' the cash.

    Yes, because they wanted to take advantage of Vista's ability to maximise performance by adding USB sticks to increase online storage.

    I forgot to mention that all the machines that got hacked were running Ubuntu or Fedora (if not their own over-graphical Operating Systems that could display popup images without a browser window. Just a floating image!) (really)
