Let's be honest. Live Free or Die Hard is a subpar Die Hard movie. Set that issue aside, however, and you'll find a surprisingly decent action film. Seriously, the Maggie Q fight is awesome.
Olyphant plays Thomas Gabriel, a super hacker who takes the entire nation hostage along with John McClane's daughter. Obviously, he never had much chance of winning, and there's no way McClane's not going to kill him, so we know who the alpha badass is in this case. Nevertheless, Olyphant holds his own in the few scenes he shares with Bruce Willis.
