"YOU DONT WANT TO MISS A THING"

Advantages: The whole film
Disadvantages: None

A good, great, wonderful, amazing film. One that you can watch over and over again without feeling bored of it. I personally must have watched this film at least 20 times. In the last 30 minutes of the film, that when the tears come, and they flow right to the end including the credits that play the Aerosmith song. You feel like you are experiencing everything with the team, you laugh and cry with them. A great cast, a great film, a great sountrack ...

One of the best action films of the 80s

Advantages: Excellent plot, Clever moves
Disadvantages: None

Die Hard is one of the best action films and definitely one of the top 80s movie. It made Bruce Willis' career and the Die Hard series spawned 4 more movies - culminating to Die Hard 4 release in 2007. --- the BASICS --- Die Hard is an action thriller film released in 1988. It starred Bruce Willis as John McClane - an eventual household fictional name. The film is directed by John McTiernan. The plot is actually based on the novel "Nothing Lasts ...
...THOUGHT --- (!!SPOILERS!!) The Die Hard series and many other action movies suffer from one thing - the main character is invincible. McClane took millions of bullets but is never killed - just mildly wounded (see Last Action Hero - an excellent spoof). Other than this Die Hard is anything but just another action movie. Its excellent plot, edge-of-the-seat action and clever moves leave its viewers guessing what will happen next. You always know McClane ...

Great Action Movie

Advantages: The actors, storyline, length of the movie
Disadvantages: None

Well this has to be one of the best if not the best action movie i have seen, none others compare to it out there. The way the movie is planned out and the story line unfolds is gripping and the director has done a excellent job. There is not a lot of blood in this movie but its rated 18 because of the language and some scences of violence and the story line. The main characters play their roles superbly its one of Bruce Willis's best performances. ...
...and i couldnt stop watching it. I really enjoyed this and as soon as i saw it i went and bought it on DVD as soon as it was out it is now one of my all time favourites. If you like action movies then you must watch this as im certain you will enjoy it. ...

Who needs Christmas Crackers with Bruce Willis around? BANG!!

Advantages: Great film with lots of action
Disadvantages: None for me

DIE HARD 2: DIE HARDER FILM ONLY REVIEW This is the second of four Die Hard films. The main character John McClane, of course, played by Bruce Willis. John McClane is a tough, brave, strong and ready for anything sort of guy - as we saw in the first Die Hard!! His story: John McClane was once a New York City police officer. His wife Holly played by Bonnie Bedelia finds a job in California and decided leave to start a life ...
...the L.A.P.D. Like Die Hard; Die Hard 2 begins on Christmas Eve in an airport, though this is in Dulles airport in Washington D.C. as opposed to L.A. International Airport. The Story: McClane is waiting for his wife to fly in , but his Christmas does not start off so good, when his car is towed away for parking in a tow away zone. When a group of unauthorized individuals walk into a baggage area which is restricted and usually locked off. ...

Bruce Willis thriller that's flawed but fun

Advantages: Action sequences are great, engaging characters.
Disadvantages: Ending is flat.

...solid cinema entertainment, with Hostage, 16 Blocks and Die Hard 4.0 all proving the dynamism of the actor. Despite the advancing years and receding hairline, Willis can still match his previous performances with the same gusto and authority. 16 Blocks, released in 2006, is familiar grouind for Willis, allowing him to use his tongue in cheek humour and star status to create yet another likeable and emotionally fraught character. The similarity in ...
...his kids. His character in 16 Blocks is on a par with these two films, with Willis playing a drunken and crippled cop seeking to put an end to the corruption and dishonesty prevalent in modern day police practice, while also trying to sort out his own life. Willis plays Detective Jack Mosley, an embittered and frankly shabby looking cop spending his days drinking on the job and upset with the path his life has taken. He sports an uncharacteristically ...
