Live Free or Die Hard (2007) aka Die Hard 4.0 Directed by Len Wiseman Written by Mark Bomback Story by Mark Bomback and David Marconi Based on the article “A Farewell to Arms” by John Carlin and characters created by Roderick Thorp Starring: Bruce Willis, Justin Long, Timothy Olyphant, Cliff Curtis, Maggie Q, Mary Elizabeth Winstead John McClane: You know what you get for being a hero? Nothin'. You get shot at. You get a little pat on the back, blah, blah, blah, attaboy. You get divorced. Your wife can't remember your last name. Your kids don't want to talk to you. You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me, kid, nobody wants to be that guy.

In the fourth installment of the long-running franchise, McClane’s mettle is tested by a computer expert . Thomas Gabri
