Great Action Film!

Rating: 8/10 (3 December 2019)

Just seen a re-release of this tonight at my local for the first time in ages & was impressed!
The film is about John McClaine, a NY Police Officer who attends a Christmas party on Christmas Eve only to be suddenly up against a group of German terrorists who plan to rob the place & take out everyone inside, including his ex-wife. It's a race against time for John to stop the terrorists before it's too late.
The film is action packed, not non stop action as they're points where the film has character development scenes in it, which is fine as long as they don't drag on too much. Which they didn't thankfully, but yeah the film definitely doesn't disappoint in terms of action.
But to say this... IT'S NOT A CHRISTMAS FILM!!! Just because the film is centered around Christmas & has a couple of Christmas themed references in it, DOESN'T mean it's ABOUT Christmas! Had to say that as this argument still even 30 years on is still being debated!
Overall, a great action film!
8/10
