Boston Globe Ty Burr
This isn't a great movie -- it's barely good, really -- but it gets something about New Hampshire I've rarely seen onscreen: a defiant pride in the way things don't work out. Live Free is a comedy of vastly diminished criminal expectations. That's the fun of it, and the frustration, too.
Read Full Review >Film Threat Don R. Lewis
Live Free or Die is a low-fi farce that technically works. But in the end it feels like a pale version of say "Raising Arizona" or even "After Hours."
Read Full Review >Variety Joe Leydon
Criminally short on laughs as it tries to wring humor from dull activity by dim bulbs.

Jared C. gave it a10:
Pretty fun, only if you've watched Live free or Die Hard.
[Anonymous] gave it a6:
To say that the movie is action packed is an understatement. I felt legitimately tired afterwards. I did laugh a few times, but a lot of jokes felt forced. It felt a little sacreligious to have so many computer effects from a movie where Willis is the anti-technology hero, but it didn't kill it. I had heard of a firesale before, and to see it in effect was cool, but the reason was a little stretched. Anyways, I would have seen it just for Maggie Q. If she was the lead villain, I would have given it an 8.
