I don't get so many critics saying it's the best of the three because for me it wasn't as emotionally engaging as the others.

I think it may be a situation where, in a summer of mostly disappointing franschise installments, the best of the lot got overblown praise.

It never fails to astonish me though, how writers and audiences still accept these cheats:

Gotta escape? I'll just jump-start the nearest car!

Gotta get inside? I'll just swipe this handy card left over from my previous adventures!

Live Free or Die Hard had blessedly little of that.

  But these movies are pure fun, no matter how outrageous. And the music is simply terrific.
