I can remember the first time I watched this film, I was very impressed to say the least and still feel that way now. Although it was made in the late eighties and some say a little dated, it still makes modern day action movies look a little lightweight.
The plot revolves around a group of terrorists (lead by Alan Rickman)who take over a multistory office in order to make a few pennies. One thing they didn't rely on was John Mclane (Bruce Willis), a tough cop with bad jet lag. Its a mixture with the potential to explode, all it needs is several kilos of explosives...wait, its got that to!
With superb acting from Rickman and fine one liners from Willis, this is the ideal movie for a quiet night in on a saturday night. If you are easily offended, be warned, this film contains frequent strong language and bloody shooting scenes. Apart from that, it is my opinion this is one of the best action films of all time.
You should be able to find this in all good high street video rental stores, but due to its age, you may even be able to find it in some stores for under a tenner. Great price for a great film. Enjoy!
