If you’re looking for a father-son reconciliation movie, this is it; unless you shy away from blazing guns, killing sprees, impossible stunts, unbelievable car chases with pileups, etc.
“A Good Day to Die Hard” portrays John McClane as the father who goes to Russia to rescue his reckless son, John Jr. who turns out to be a CIA agent. There are the obligatory scenes of violence one would expect from a Die Hard movie. This episode of the movie franchise shows John Sr. as older and somewhat wiser, but just as determined as his younger son (self). The plot twists are too bizarre to be believable and therefore force the audience to suspend reality and take gigantic leaps of logic in order to enjoy the story.
The story is not close to family-friendly, due to language and violence.
