The terrorists, a renegade band of crack military commnados led by a murderous rouge officer (William Sadler), have come to rescue a drug lord from justice. They've prepared for every contigency, except one: John McClane, an off-duty cop seized by feeling of deadly deja-vu. Bruce Willis returns as the heroic cop who battles not only terrorists, but also an incompetent airport police chief (Dennis Franz), the hard-headed commander (John Amos) of the army's anti-terrorist squad and a deadly winter snowstorm. The runways are littered with death and destruction, and McClane is in a race against time. His wife (Bonnie Bedelia) is trapped on one of the planes circling somewhere overhead, desperately low on fuel. It's all-out war, a heart-stopping, jet-propelled journey through excitement and terror. Fasten your seatbelts! Spec>>2
