Excellent and stands the test of time

Rating: 10/10 (7 November 2004)

Possible spoilers!
This movie has it all. Great plot, great acting, action, and excellent humour and satire. How about that Alan Rickman? Where was his Oscar nomination for his Hans Gruber? The exchange between Rickman and Bochner just before Bochner's character was off killed was priceless. The FBI guys had lines that reminded me a bit of Doctor Strangelove and their personalities were from Colonel Flagg from MASH.
Bruce Willis became a star after this movie and rightly so. Nobody could be a better fly in the ointment than he was in this movie. This movie did not need special effects but they were good nonetheless.
This movie in DVD would be an excellent gift for anyone who likes movies.
Enjoy!
