Duro de Atuar 2

I have watched the 2023 movie "Die Hart", but not the TV series. In fact I didn't know that there was a series before I looked up the 2024 movie "Die Hart: Die Harter" here on IMDb. I did enjoy the 2023 movie, but I didn't even know that they were making a sequel. So when I stumbled upon "Die Hart: Die Harter" by random chance, of course I opted to watch it.

Writers Tripper Clancy and Derek Kolstad managed to come up with a fair enough script, though I have to say that it didn't have the appeal and entertainment value as the first movie. Sure, "Die Hart: Die Harter" was watchable enough for what it was, but it wasn't exactly an outstanding movie experience.

The acting performances in the movie were fair, and they certainly had a good enough cast ensemble to bring the story to life on the screen.

There were a fair amount of action sequences throughout the course of the movie, and they definitely helped to keep the movie afloat.

Sure, I was adequately entertained throughout the course of the 92 minutes that the movie ran for. But it is hardly a movie that I will return to watch a second time.

My rating of "Die Hart: Die Harter", from director Eric Appel, lands on a five out of ten stars.

Usually, I'd take some time and think about my words carefully before leaving a review, but since the people responsible for producing this movie didn't care about making a good movie, I'm not going to bother trying too hard with my review. Normally, I love Kevin Hart and John Cena and they really gave it their all in this movie. I mean, I think they really tried to make a good movie. But somebody, probably the director, Eric Appel, just didn't do a good job. Everything just seems off somehow. Is this a parody? Is this supposed be in the same genre as Naked Gun? Because if it is, it's terrible. Is this a comedy? Because if it's supposed to be, it isn't funny. Is this an action movie? Because if it is, the action sucked.

I just don't get it. Both the writers, Tripper Clancy and Derek Kolstad, have written for movies and shows that I really enjoyed. But the writing for this is just plain dumb. I don't know if they just didn't care or were forced to write something they didn't want to write, but it's just so childish and lazy.

The acting from everyone involved is clumsy and that's why I suspect the problem is with the direction. I just don't understand why this movie got made. It looks like it's got a budget. It's shot decently. Nothing to write home about, but it suffices, I guess. The audio is pretty terrible, though. There are many parts throughout the movie where the sound goes up and down and it's really off-putting.

I guess, if you have nothing else to watch and you've consumed many, I mean MANY, mind altering beverages and you desperately need some background sounds to listen to as you're passing out, this might hit the spot for you. Otherwise, I'd skip this. It's definitely not worth paying for.

I like Kevin Hart and John Cena and enjoy movies about movie making; but, this was something else. It is as if it tried to be Naked Gun one minute, Get Shorty the next, then Misery ...I don't think it knew what it was trying to be. Perhaps it was the directing; but, the writing seemed disjointed and the acting awkward and clumsy. I'm not sure it would even be a good way to pass the time when there was nothing, nothing at all, left to watch. I wish I had spent the time reading a decent book. Not sure how movies like this are allowed to be made; but, it seems that with streaming options and direct to DVD, the bar has been lowered....and yet the movie industry wonders why theater ticket sales are dropping. I was disappointed by this movie and I did not even leave my living room. I cannot imagine how I would feel had I paid to see this in a theater. If you have nothing else to watch, try this; but, be prepared to turn it off half way through.

I don't know why nobody else pointed this out, but they seem to have compiled 'Die Hart' TV Series into a "new movie". I started getting the intense feeling of a Deja Vu while watching 'Die Hart 2: Die Harter' and couldn't quite put my finger on why it all seemed so familiar. After a bit of web surfing I found out the exact reason - I watched the same thing in a TV series format 'Die Hart'. Every single plot point. I fast-forwarded through this "new movie" trying to find out whether I could simply be wrong or if they were trying to show parts of the old story to people who haven't seen the series in order to reveal the next plot point, but it was exactly as I feared - the same exact thing from the series, with bits and pieces cut out to fit the feature film length.

I honestly couldn't believe they would do such a shameless money grab, it's like a whole new low.

KH stumbled as the leading role in this movie. The first 10-15 minutes required him to deliver so much dialogue it was clear he's in over his head in this stage of his career. He is a decent co-star and can deliver some comedy when needed. But this was a hard watch because he was struggling to be relevant in his own movie.

I'll give him 2 stars for convincing Hollywood backers to make this film. If it was anyone else they would have tossed this script into the fireplace. I'm a fan of KH and know that he can be funny unfortunately parodying yourself in a parody movie is a negative in my book. Comes off as a joke and it wasn't even funny the first time around.
