Live Free or Die Hard---Bruce Willis, Justin Long & Timothy Olyphant



John McClane---when I hear his name I am ready for an action packed adventure. From his original Die Hard to Live Free or Die Hard; I am a Bruce Willis #1 fan. I watch his Die Hard movies when I need to relax and let him perform the action as no one else can.

In this movie John McClane (Bruce Willis) is a tough cop from the old school of getting the job done no matter what method it takes. His skills and experience saved the day and lives in this film.

John is trying to make a connection with his daughter Lucy Gennaro McClane (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and communicate with her---to no avail. His captain calls him as John is leaving his daughter’s apartment.

The FBI’s Cyber Crime Division was hacked and the Director made the decision to pick up all “Hackers” know to the FBI. And since it is the 4th of July most policeman are off duty. So who do they want? They want Detective John McClane to pick-up a hacker by the name of Matthew “Matt” Farrell (Justin Long) and deliver him to the FBI in Washington DC.

The same time John arrived at Matt’s apartment so did the Thomas Gabriel’s (Timothy Olyphant) gang of Internet Terrorist to kill Matt as they had the other hackers whom they used for their benefit.

 The first shot was through the window---then all war broke-out as the assassins broke in shooting and John shooting back and protecting Matt at the same time it was war. Then suddenly one of the Matt’s trophies fell onto the delete key and a bomb went off that was put in to especially kill Matt, but killed one of the assassins. John and Matt got away after the two remaining killers tried on last time to kill them.

Matt told John after they arrived in DC that this was a “Fire Sale” that mean everything goes so our Nation was in for a rough time.

 This is a great movie and I enjoy watching my DVD.


Next: John McClane movie will premiere February 14, 2013 titled  “A Good Day to Die Hard”

Abygail left the room and let Natalie be alone with her father’s past. After she viewed the information she called her friend Larry Gorman (Robert Mailhouse) an attorney who worked in the same law firm with her. Although Natalie was a top attorney in the firm; she valued Larry’s opinion.

Natalie did not know her father was married before he married her mother; to a famous “Rodeo Queen” named Maggie Mae Jarret. She found a picture in the wooden box of Maggie Mae and her dad who she called “Charlie.”
Natalie Goggled Maggie Mae Jarret online and found she lived in California also. So she planned a trip to find out more about her.

Natalie walked carefully on the dirt and grass as she looked for the gravesite. Finally, Natalie stood at Maggie Mae Jarret’s grave. To her right she heard a rattling sound then she saw a huge rattlesnake. She froze it frightened her so; then all of a sudden a woman walked up behind her and said do not move. It will leave when it realizes you are not going to hurt it.
"Are you here about Maggie Mae?"
Natalie rplied, "Yes I am writing an article on rodeo stars."

"My name is “Jess” Jess Jarret (Lindsay Wagner) ---Maggie Mae was my mother."

Natalie looked shocked, "I didn’t know she had a daughter."

"Yes I am her daughter--- and you look a little sick." 
" Are you ok?"

Natalie told her no--- she had eaten some Chili at the little restaurant.

Jess told Natalie to follow her home to learn more about Maggie Mae. But instead Natalie had to lie down she felt so ill.

Natalie met Lulu Nichols (Lindy Newton) after she arrived home from school. Lulu is Jess’ adopted daughter. Lulu had chores to do so she left Natalie on the couch with a rag on her head.

New in Town---Renee Zellweger and Harry Connick, Jr.

Lucy Hill (Rene Zellweger) loved her life in Miami Florida as she worked her way up the ladder. She planned to be even more powerful than her now consulting position. While in a meeting she volunteered to mastermind the companies’ blue collar plant in a small community in the frozen state of Minnesota; to downsize it to 50% of the workforce and to reconstruct the operations of the plant.
However, Lucy’s company only looked at the numbers---and not the faces of the people who she would soon find out about after landing on a very cold day. Lucy arrived at the real estate office to meet Blanche Gunderson (Siobhan Fallon) and Trudy Van Uuden (Frances Conroy) who proceeded to the house she would live in.
Lucy drove her rental car with Blanche as a passenger. Lucy was cold, not used to the icy weather and she had the company business on her mind. So Lucy was driving and not talking until Blanche started asking questions.

 Blanche was such a sweet person who wanted to know more about Lucy. Blanche asked Lucy if she was a scraper---Lucy looked puzzled. Blanche told her that she made scrapbooks, and she belonged to a scrapbook club. After more personal questions from Blanche they finally stopped behind Trudy’s car and the three ladies went into the cold rental house.


Blanche invited Lucy to her home for supper (that is dinner in small towns) and this is where she met Ted Mitchell (Harry Connick, Jr.) and his daughter Bobbie (Ferron Guerreiro).
Lucy and Ted did not hit it off, because of their different ideologies. Lucy was a big city girl born and bred and Ted was a single small town father who was raising her teenage daughter with small town traditions.
The next day Lucy met Stu Kopenhafer (J.K. Simmons) the plant manager, and her life would not be the same. Everyone in the town had experienced the presents of other consultants that were sent to their plant from the Miami Headquarters. And they were not greeted with opened arms. Because the workers felt threatened and feared for their jobs. Yes---Lucy was in for the fight of her life.
This is a good movie Renee and Harry sparked great chemistry together. And it showed how people in small town American will band together to fight for their rights.
Will Lucy's heart warm up to these people and will she help them in the end to save their jobs?
