If you want to read lengthy, drawn-out reviews of the movies in theaters now (or soon to be) then this isn't the blog you should be reading. Most of the posts from The Other Critic are short, sweet and to the point; that's how we roll here.

We also don't just focus on current movies. Let's face it, there are plenty of good movies that have been made, and sometimes viewers have a tendency to forget that there is more to life than movies in the theaters.

With all that said, please enjoy the short and concise, and sometimes opinionated reviews. If you don't like them, that's okay—we won't hold it against you.

Die Hard 2

Okay, so maybe Die Hard 2 wasn't as good as the first—it's always hit and miss with sequels or second parts; sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. But, regardless of whether you won or lost with Die Hard 2, I have to share with you my two absolute favorite parts of this movie.

First favorite part: McClane decides to fax over the fingerprints of one of the suspects. As he's at the desk, being helped by a young, attractive women (according to early 90s standards) and as he finishes, she's like, "I close in about an hour. Maybe we can get a drink?" McClane raises his left and and shows her the ring on his finger and replies, "Just the fax, ma'am. Just the fax." (think Dragnet)

Second favorite part: "Yippie-kai-yay, motherf*****." It just wouldn't be Die Hard without that quote.
