It's no joke... The first movie is a very good film, but one that I only watch if I can't find anything else worth watching. Still... a masterpiece next to most other 80's action films. The second movie is just an awful remake of the first film, where I didn't care about anything, and actually found myself bored through most of it. The third movie is a massive improvement on the second, but Jeremy Irons is crap, and I'd only watch it again if I were pushed into it. But the fourth movie, at any time I can crack open a beer and watch Bruce Willis have the shit kicked out of him by Maggie Q. Or a police car kill a helicopter. And what's more it features a story in which I cared about the stakes for the first time since the first movie, and doesn't feature a single shitty German accent. It's not a fantastic movie, by any means, but as an action movie it's a great diversion... and I don't care how much of the word "motherfucker" he's allowed to say. I know that this is not the generally accepted order of things, but that's why it's in the Unpopular Opinions thread. If you don't want to read an unpopular opinion, don't click.
