A Good Day to Die Hard

Who's Idea was it to aim A Die Hard Movie for a 12a audience? The Audience Demographic for this movie, is likely to be people who love the original. how many 12-18 year olds are likely to go and see this, compared to the 30ish market (like myself) there is nothing like annoying your target market.

I know I have ranted on here in the past about Bad Language, but its not the language that is the iissue, its whether the useof language is neccessary. A Die Hard without the swearing, is like a Horror movie being reduced to Scooby Doo.

Perhaps if this was a one off film, I wouldn't be so disappointed, but the Die Hard Movies have a rich heritage that has just been completely ruined by this poor excuse for a money making exercise.

The plot is weak, with cross and double cross and tripple cross, quite how you could plan that much is beyond me. also how on earth you can blow up a room full of enriched uranium without there being a nuclear explosion that kills everyone i'm not quite sure. 

If you have never seen Die Hard 1-4 then you might get some enjoyment from this, for anyone who loves the die hard films, this is best avoided. 1/10
