John Mclane is one cool character and this film created him.

Rating: 8/10 (12 November 2018)

Die Hard is how an action film should be- taunt, well paced and brimming with characters you like or hate. John Mctiernen who is often forgotten as a fantastic filmmaker(He also helmed Predator) is fantastic in his direction. This was during his sweet phase when he was making one great film after another. Alan Rickman is amazing as Hans Gruber- you rarely see such evil villains anymore. Die Hard is often called a Christmas movie because it is set during that time, but you should see it right away.
