They've not announced the rating here yet, www.bbfc.co.uk is where it'll be put up.
It's an R in the US (for "language and violence", implying more than one use of the F word), so its fairly unlikely that it will be anything less than a 15. Plus, as JCR said, they've not announced the UK rating yet.
Die Hard films always worth a look.
Just seen this posted on AVforums
Die Hard - 131mins: 2hrs 11mins
Die Hard 2 - 124mins: 2hrs 4mins
Die Hard With a Vengeance - 131mins: 2hrs 11mins
Live Free or Die Hard - 128mins: 2hrs 8mins
Die Hard 5 - a very, very short 97mins: 1hr 37mins
Seems like the script will keep things moving very fast indeed.
This may sound weird, but I've never even thought about the length of them, mainly because I enjoy them so much. Seeing the times listed there makes me wonder how many hours I've spent watching these films over the years
But I digress.
I've got high hopes for the DH5, so hopefully the fact it's shorter than the others won't be a detriment.
the scene of him running across broken glass - i doubt he'd even notice it now..
They'd probably have him flying over it in a big red cape.
As for 97 mins, Jesus wept. Who wrote the script? A 6 year old with ADHD?
Works for me. :D
But yes I do agree, he was supposed to be the 'everyman' in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Or actually, for everyone he happens to save 'at the right time'.
If it gets a 12A rating, I'm not watching it. I didn't go to see DH 4 for the same reason, and when I seen it on DVD after it came out I was so glad I didn't see it in the cinema as I was so disappointed.
It ain't a 12A with 43 f***s in it. Die Hard 4.0 wasn't a 12A either, even the PG-13 cut of it was a 15, this is the bbfc advice for the PG-13 version of DH4.0:
Will still watch it though .
The 12A rating isn't confirmed, and judging by the reports from people who have seen it (it's out in Hong Kong and Singapore already) there is far too much swearing for it to be a 12A (assuming these people aren't bullsh*tting). And since he apparently says his catchphrase in full this time without being semi-obscured by a gunshot there is simply no way it cold be a 12A (unless they've softened since Die Hard 4.0 in 2007, the BBFC consider even a single use of "motherf*cker" to be an instant 15).
Plus, VUE previously had the film down as a 12A but that's now changed to "TBC", so hopefully it is at least a 15.
Suspect Fox is now having to make hefty cuts and do a very quick resubmission.
I think (will have to check) that the local council, can, at its discretion, decide on a classification for a film if it disagrees strongly enough with the BFFC decision, or can allow a film to be shown unclassified. I think this happened with the first Maguire Spiderman film.
I don't know the exact rules regarding such decisions, but I'm sure someone here will.
For that reason, i'm out. Also, his son looks annoying. Could they not afford the aussie guy from Avatar?
It's possible that they have rated it but just not put it on their website yet, i imagine the BBFC will have at least seen it and granted them permission to screen it tonight at the premiere.
I've seen them taking their time updating the website before, although granted it was mainly for stuff being released on DVD/Blu Ray. Episodes from Season 3 or 4 of Breaking Bad didn't appear on the BBFC website until after the DVD set had actually been released! Obviously that can't happen here with it being a cinema release, but just because a certificate hasn't been announced yet doesn't mean that they're taking the scissors to it.
'This Is 40' also comes out on the same day as Die Hard and that was only certified three days ago too.
4 films in & the quality hasn't dipped.
I fully expect number 5 to maintain the high standard.
PS: I'm glad they've not called it Die Hard 5.00 or something!!! Why was the last one called 4.0; what was the reasoning behind that?
