Be naughty or nice and dive into the captivating world of MONOPOLY GO! t2m.io/MO_ShanelleRiccio

A. The jet from True Lies could hover too. It’s a thing. B. Don’t watch the fifth movie. It is Not Good. Keep up the great work Shanelle!

One of the funniest exchanges in the film (not shown in the reaction): McClane: Are you okay? Matt: I skinned my knee, and my astha's acting up a bit.

My favorite line of the movie is "Wow. I know that tone, it's just weird hearing it come from somebody with hair."

For a real view of hacking, watch the excellent 1992 movie "Sneakers" (Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, Ben Kingsley, River Phoenix, Mary McDonnell). Written by the same guys who wrote "War Games" (which was also accurate for the hacking, at that time).

That Jet is an F-35, it is capable of taking off with a runway or lifting straight up off the ground. I designed configuration parts for the F-35 JSF (Joint Strike Fighter) years ago. It exists. In fact the Jet before this one was made that could do vertical hovering was The Harrier. It was introduced in 1969. It was produced until 2003. Up until the F-35 replaced it.

Vertical take off and landing Jets have been a thing since we Brits designed the Harrier Jump Jet in the 60's.

10:27 or so: In theory, with enough advanced setup, it could be possible to break into several systems separately over an extended period, install backdoor access on each, and have all the digital payloads ready to go on one command. Technically, it's PLAUSIBLE. Realistically, it's not likely to happen.

17:30 On BMW, it’s called BMW Assist. GM has OnStar. Both started sometime in the 90s

Today is when we learned that Shanelle doesnt know that VSTOL jets, and Onstar exists lol

Shanelle, if you haven't seen "An Evening with Kevin Smith" or "An Evening with Kevin Smith 2: Evening Harder" or "A Threevening with Kevin Smith", you should really check those out. It's like a Q&A format, and he tells lots of funny stories from his movie making experiences. I'm sure you'd love it.

At 4:52 you glanced away from the screen for just a second making Kevin Smith's reveal at 23:01 SO perfect.

John Mcclane is the Terminator of this franchise.

In his series of specials "An Evening With Kevin Smith" Kevin talks about his experiences filming this picture. And jokes about getting the part of Freddy/Warlock largely based of his writing abilities to punch up the comedic dialogue of that particular scene.

My buddy Matt was the first hacker blown up at the beginning.

Honestly after Die Hard With A Vengeance, I had forgotten they had kept making these movies. And I was sad to hear that Bruce Willis has frontotemporal dementia.

One of the things I loved about this one, and why it stands out as my favorite, is that there's no dick-measuring contest between the government agencies. They're all working toward the same goal, and when information becomes relevant, it gets shared. Bowman respects McClane, McClane respects Bowman, Bowman's superiors tell him about Woodlawn when they realize it's part of Gabriel's plot. Even Matt & "Warlock" agree to help, despite being criminals. It stands in stark contrast to the first film, where if anyone (excepting McClane) had left their ego at the door, they could've stopped the terrorists in their tracks almost immediately.

I may be odd, but I like #4. Is it better than 1 or 3? Absolutely not. Still fun. Like 3 it was a reworked script turned into a Die Hard, it keeps the John + civilian dynamic from 3, which works well with Justin Long wheezing along behind Bruce, brings back Lucy with MEW (who doesn't have much to do but is badass anyway), and gives us another charming villain with Timothy Olyphant and his geek squad. It gets ridiculous, but they had to go bigger than 3. And the 'presidential threat' sequence is kinda chilling. I would suggest just ending here. 5 is really subpar. Just stop here and enjoy Die Hard as a whole.

Shanelle - I'm so glad you got to watch this. A person favorite, for me second only to the original. Keep up the great work. I'm happy for you that the sponsors recognize your following.

A "Harrier" jet can hover like a helicopter.

12:13 I just figured the bad guys didn't want any witnesses to the cyber heist.

Vertical Take Off & Landing (VTOL) jets are a real thing. The Harrier is a well known one that was used in the Schwarzenegger movie True Lies towards the end of the film. The one used in this movie was an F-35B, built by Lockheed Martin. My father worked for Boeing on the V-22 Osprey program, which is a VTOL helicopter. They've been used widely in movies over the past 25-ish years (the Transformers movies, Battle Los Angeles), and you may recognize those more. While I'm not sure on specifics about how agile the F-35B is, or if the stunts done in the film are technically possible (it was obviously a CGI jet), the planes do exist and can hover, and land vertically.

This is the movie where Kevin Smith and Bruce Willis met and became friends. Kevin directed Cop Out with Bruce but Kevin had a hard time working with Bruce. They had a fallout as friends. Something odd years later Bruce texted Kevin a positive message in the text and they talk again. I met Kevin last year and such an amazing dude and takes time to talk to his fans. Plus Justin is in a few more movies with Kevin Smith Films. Kevin is such an amazing person

Cliff Curtis (the lead FBI with the accent) is from New Zealand Shan! Check him out in Sunshine and Push, both with Chris Evans (pre-MCU).

Whaaat just saw this! Back to back SHAN?! THE REACT GODDESS BLESSES US

Shanelle: "Call me out below, you guys." Deploy airbags to get customer service to star the car - Yes, OnStar could detect collisions and remotely start their customers' cars. Low-flying jet - Yes, the VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) variant of the F-35 can use the VTOL capability to hover if the conditions are right. (Edit: there we go lol, the trivia section got us there.) Note that the details above were about as real-life accurate as everything else in the movie. "Fly that $110 million jet super close to the highway and hover in front of what you believe to be a terrorist-driven vehicle." Probably not. I will take every ounce of unrealism in this movie. It's so much fun with all the action and the dialogue. A real "get the big popcorn" film.

My favorite line/scene was the "You just killed a helicopter with a car!" scene.

That aircraft is the f-35 B lightning 2 , United States Marine corps. It has the radar signature of a sparrow when the landing gear is up, the vertical fan door is closed and the weapons bay door is closed. It's significantly bigger when any of those are open. It is the second most elite plane in the world, the f22 Raptor is the only Superior aircraft. Those two replace the F-15 Eagle, any variation, as the most elite aircraft, especially the Raptor. The Raptor. The f-15 Eagle is 104 to zero in air-to-air combat. The only aircraft that has been proven to kill it easily is the F-22 Raptor. 35 is a naval aircraft. Primarily. It is stationed on small carriers that don't have A catapult device. So they need a vertical takeoff aircraft which is what this is designed to do. It replaced the harrier fleet that was aging. They also launch helicopters from those small aircraft carriers. If anyone tells you that anyone is a threat to the United States in conventional warfare, they are lying to you or they don't know what they are talking about. Any conflict we are engaged with in, we have air superiority from the onset. Onset. There is no chance of any other country or combination of countries being able to take down any of our fighter aircraft in air-to-air combat. That's what you get when you spend a trillion dollars annually on your military budget. Just the fleet of f-22 raptors, 187, cost more than Russia has spent on their entire military budget for the past two decades combined. When Russia threatened NATO, President Biden sent 12 f-22 raptors to Poland. Those 12 f22 raptors can destroy every single aircraft in the Russian military without losing a single plane. The f-22 Raptor has a radar signature of a marble. Slightly larger when the weapons Bay opens for the one second necessary to fire a weapon. I am a historian, an economist and an expert on the Constitution. Most of my military knowledge comes from the fact that I wanted to fly F-15 eagles until my eyesight went bad as a teenager. That was a while ago. Here's a video of that aircraft at an air show at Miramar. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o8h-jKV7y5zWdIE.htmlsi=50D2DKbMuAbEjBrB

My biggest criticism of this one was that someone felt that it needed to have such over the top action setpieces. (Namely the plane and gas-line sequences.) They just kind of took away from the story and the stakes..."Hold, please. We have to insert an action set piece now."

"Now there are only five of them" Like father like daughter xD

That's the F-35b Lightning II and yes it can actually do all of that. It's flown by the U.S. Marines and the U.K. Royal Navy

The realistic idea with the instantaneous hacking is that the hackers have accumulated exploits over time and packaged them for quick reuse. The reasoning goes: "We need to mess with the traffic lights? I've got a script laying around from a couple years ago to do that." The reasoning does not go: " We need to mess with the traffic lights? Give me a second to bust in there."

Part II 😁 Also have to say seeing your eyes lighting up on the action scenes is alone worth the price of admission 🎫☮️

The 1st vertical short take-off & landing jet fighter that I am aware of was the Harrier "jump jet" which went into service in the RAF (U.K.) in 1969. In 1971, the U.S. Marine Corp started purchasing the Harrier for service. The jet in the movie is a Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning & yes they can hover. The F-35 was a major advancement over the original Harrier considering the 35 yrs. in between. Arnold Schwarzenegger's character in "True Lies" (1994) flies a Harrier & uses its hovering ability to save his daughter from a construction crane on a high rise.

12:51 Back when I was a reckless youth (lol) I used to drive my car in reverse all the time. Went to the mall parking lots and tried that whole "drive-in-reverse-and-spin-the-car-around-180-degrees-and-carry-on forward" thing. LOL

I love this movie and Mary Elizabeth Winsted is incredible in this, she actually said that Lucy isn't like her at all lol If you get the chance to watch the unrated version of this movie do it, it's so much better 8:47 that "Whoo!" Was a real reaction from Bruce lol 9:33 he's not wrong

I am sad that I missed your reaction. Thank you! for doing this reaction.

I am really surprised you didn't recognize Cliff Curtis, and yes he is a Kiwi. Cliff Curtis, much like Charles Mesure, Karl Urban, Martin Csokas, Ted Raimi, Melinda Clarke, Shiri Appleby, Antony Starr, Gina Torres, and countless others, gained fame on Xena: Warrior Princess and Hercules: Legendary Journeys before finding stardom in the USA. Curtis was in Doctor Sleep, Fear the Walking Dead, Meg 2, Avatar 2, and many more movies and tv shows.

This is when the serie got a PG-13 rating and went from action movies to cartoons

You should absolutely not watch the last film. BUT you should watch the movie RED with him in it. Super funny action film with a great cast.

I love that, of all the computer hacking stuff that, while fun, stretches belief, the only thing she outright denies is OnStar, which has been around since 1996. 😂

Kevin Smith has a fantastic story about making this movie on you tube.

The stupid reason for it being called Die Hard 4.0 is the studio thought no one outside of America would understand "Live Free or Die" which I believe is on one of your coins.

21:20 Good catch! Cliff Curtis is indeed a Kiwi.

Yes, that jet is real and has been a thing for a while. That’s nothing compared to what exists today btw.

This would have been a good ending for the franchise. Some actually think it is. I saw the 5th movie once. Almost one too many times.. I saw the second and third one before the first one. The first one is classic, this one is kinda my favorite one..

This movie was gosh darn awesome! (Unrated version is more satisfying.)

The jet is the F35B, which is the version designed for the V/STOL operation (Vertical/Short Take Off and Landing). I think it was the variant designed for the Marines. It can indeed hover and maneuver in place. This isn't a new concept, the older Harrier jet from the 70's (the US variant of which was used in True Lies) could also land and maneuver in vertical mode.

Cliff Curtis is one of those chameleon actors like Gary Oldman with a different nationality/accent per movie. He was in Training Day as a Mexican ex-army ranger turned criminal known as “Smiley”, and was also in Star Trek 2009 as the ill-fated captain of USS Kelvin.

LONG: Lookin good, buddy. You lost weight? SMITH: No. I gained 30 pounds. F*ck you. This is when you realize the Die Hard franchise and the Viewaskiew universe are a shared universe. I half expected Jay to pop Jay to pop his head up into the frame. And I'm all for it. 😀🤙❤️

This is definitely an underrated movie. Just because the MPAA rating went down, it doesn’t mean it’s a bad movie. But it was automatically deemed as such before people even went to see it. It’s way better than 2. But most importantly. Yes, at the time when national security was the hot button issue, this was all possible. Extremely unlikely, but possible Some do argue it’s even more possible today because of the lack of attention put on cyber security. But so far, something like this hasn’t been taken to the web, still on the ground

Nice! One of the best films in the DIE HARD franchise! Kevin Smith has a cameo in the movie and even rewrote some of the dialogue as well. Smith would team up with Bruce Willis on thr buddy cop action comedy Cop Out which wasnt well received by critics. Smith would say in interviews that "Bruce Willis was an asshole to work with on any movie set. He may have been everyone's favorite hero back in the 80's and 90's. He sure as hell wasn't mine." Following Willis' dementia diagnosis, Smith would apologize for his statements to Willis and his family.

The jet from True Lies was an AV8 Harrier, which is a VSTOL aircraft, Verticle/Short Take Off and Landing. Harriers and the jet in this movie, an F35 Lightning are the only 2 US fixed wing aircraft that can hover. The Harriers were slow, not capable of supersonic flight, they were retired a few decades ago. The F35s replaced them and are much faster and are much more versatile than the Harrier. The F35s are used by the Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps, all with some different configurations.

I still enjoy this one. The action is great, you could tell Bruce Willis was having fun. A decent enough final entry to the franchise. There is no Die Hard 5.

Love the chemistry in this between Bruce Willis and Justin Long. They play well off each other. Justin reminds of a young Jackson Browne in this for some reason:)

I'm impressed that you could hear New Zealand in that. I'd never buy it as an American accent, but I'm Australian and watched it knowing who Cliff Curtis is and I couldn't hear it.

The jet is a F-35B and it can hover like that as it is designed for vertical take off and landing, without needing a conventional runway

As someone who does vehicle stunts, driving in reverse is challenging. The input is way different, however, Rockfords are fun to do.

My beautiful asmr queen yes I love the video consistency this week! I'll be here to support every time let's GOOOO

I always get excited when a movie is set on July 4th, since it's my Bday.

*edit: trivia you get most of the F-35B comment but I'll leave my full comment here.* The Marine Corp variant of the F-35, the B model, can indeed hover though it not really intended as an engagement technique and no aviator would ever do what that pilot did. That said, it could hover like that. The Harrier jump jet that proceeded it could do a basically the same thing (though slightly different in how it achieved it) and was used by Arnold as noted in another comment in the film True Lies. Also, the jet has way less ammo than shown and the F-35B doesn't actually have an internal gun, they should have shown the gun pod that they use when they want to carry the cannon.

17:37 Yes, in fact, at least 16 automakers offer Automatic Crash Notification these days. At the time this film was made GM was the big name with their Onstar service. And yes, social engineering works on the operators and quite a few cars were stolen this way and through other hacking techniques.

Yes, Cliff Curtis is from New Zealand. He is Maori. If you want to see how talented this guy is, check out, "Once Were Warriors." a small New Zealand film from early in his career that deals with the current state of the indigenous Maori people of New Zealand. It is fantastic and sticks with you. The closing song you liked, "Fortunate Son." is one of those famous songs that people play, but have no idea what the lyrics are or what the song is about. It's a powerful anti-Vietnam war anthem by Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Watch moonlighting for Bruce Willis with hair

Onstar comes standard in GM vehicles and it absolutely will contact authorities, rescue services, however they cant start your car for you. They can disable it however.

10:00 No hackers can not hack with the click of one button. It takes a lot of buttons (keystrokes), and a lot of programing know how. An attack like what you see in this movie would take months to years to plan and get people into positions to execute it.

Yes, the last Die Hard movie that does not make you hate yourself for watching it. Of course, I could be bias since I love Timothy Olyphant in everything he does. :)

Jury is out on whether car could be remote started, alot of recent modern high end cars and pretty common in European models is a pyrotechnic fuse on the battery which when fired in-conjunction with airbag system being activated it disconnects electrical system & bricks it.

I love the "Agent Johnson" callback from DH1 in this movie. It was blink-and-you'll-miss-it but I definitely loved it.

"You're always at the wrong place at the wrong time...." - Thomas Gabriel "How about, yippee ki yay, MOTHERF*..." - Senior detective John McClane

"Ninja Chick" seems entirely appropriate for a female badass Martial Artist. Unless you think it has something to do with Race... which would be a bit Sus.

Fun little fact about your intro when you yawned and said catch a yawn psychopaths and sociopaths don't get that they are almost immune as yawning back is a sign of empathy 😂

In one of the Evening With Kevin Smith movies/shows, Smith talks about his cameo and working with Bruce Willis. It's pretty funny.

Fun fact happened up in canada not too long ago., there was a glitch of some kind with one of the major telecom providers and many people couldnt make calls even to 911, and debit terminals didnt work so people couldnt pay for things for several hours

Hey! I really like what you’re doing! I’m a writer and producer based in LA and I just started a KZfaq channel talking about movies and entertainment as well. Came across your vids and just wanted to shoot you a 🙏… and a 👏🏼… a 💪🏼 … and lastly a 🎥 just because it’s required in this business right? Haha

Not sure I've seen a reaction make it to this one? I FREAKING LOVE this one!! Gotta ask though 🤔 How did the Bad guys have time to rig explosives on computers that probably never rest⁉️ Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎

I’m loving your Die Hard Reviews and I hope you are planning to do the last one to close out the franchise because you’re the only movie reactor that I know of that’s done all of these movies and I love it!

You asked about computer hacking. My brother is head for some part of the State of Oregon network security and I have been doing my own networks since the late 90s. This would be MUCH more plausible when this movie was made with the hacking. That being said it is not and "instant" thing. The access, corrupted files, back doors, viruses and other infiltration devices would have been being set up for several years to make this all work. Would take some of the words greatest minds and an incredible control system to ever have a chance of working. In reality, no one is that good, on this scale, for it to actually happen.

It always felt to me like they were laying the ground work to hand off the franchise to Justin Long as the new Die Hard guy moving forward. Would have been interesting to see that, IMO.

Timothy olyphant (Thomas Gabriel) auditioned for the role of Tony stark in Iron man

If you have any way to, watch the Unrated version. Has way more of an accurate Die Hard feeling, violence, blood, and strong language. People think there’s only one version of this.

Michael Scott has already said everything that needs to be said about this movie :P

My 3rd favorite Die Hard (after 1 and 3).

That was a pretty new airplane back when this film came out. It had only been around for a few years by the time this came out in 2007.

This one is my fav action movie ever. The action is so impossible but it’s so well done.

i always think the scene in the tunnel where the truck crash in the pillar13:56 that they put a big screen behind the pillar where the truck crash and behind the pillar is also a little air canon shooting some debris.

I heard the term fire sale online years before this movie. There were some online that seriously wanted to do a fire sale....

❤ Maggie Q & Mary Elizabeth Winstead, badass chicks😊

23:01 It's very cool that Shan didn't know The Great Kevin Smith was in this.🤩 Snoochie Boochies. 😁

The fact that you were surprised by the hovering plane means -spoiler alert- you haven't watched "True Lies" with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis???... it's a must, girl!!

Awesome! Congrats on the sponsor. I might try that game, looks fun enough. Please watch Cop Out starring Bruce Willis and directed by Kevin Smith.

That jet is an F-35 and has vertical takeoff and landing capabilities.

That jet is a real thing. It’s a F-35B Marine Corps variant of the US Joint Strike Fighter. Similar to the Harrier Jet it is capable of vertical take off and landing. Though, I’m sure for this film a few liberties were taken about its capabilities. 👌

Driving in reverse is a lot easier with a backup camera :)

Well, it's not a franchise known for scientific accuracy. The jet part is absolute nonsense, most of the hacking stuff too - but does it detract from my fun watching it? Absolutely no. The jet part is so absurd it makes the-car-into-a-helicopter thing entirely mundane. But the assistance-assisted car theft is pretty accurate representation of hacking, which is 95% making people tell you their password, not invading and decrypting it from their data. The delivery on "There's only five of them left" and the face Timothy makes are one of my fav moments in entirety of cinema.

This was my introduction to the Die Hard Franchise. I went into this film not realizing that this was a sequel to a franchise.

I agree this is the best stunts for a film. Live Free or Die Hard is a pretty good Die Hard film.

Some newer generation fighters have VTOL (vertical takeoff and Lift) so they can takeoff and land like a helicopter.

The F35 can take off vertically but it can't track a target side to side while doing so

I agree this film has great dialogue.
