One of the two best action movies of all time

Rating: 10/10 (26 April 1999)

When I think of great action movies, two movies come to my mind, Lethal Weapon and Die Hard. Die Hard is an unbelievably well-acted, slam-bam, thank you mam, thriller. Every second of this movie was better then the next. Bruce Willis WAS John MacLane and Alan Rickman was truly insane. The scenes on the roof of the 40 floor building were amazing and the fight between Bruce Willis and the late Alexander Godunov was truly magnificent. Every scene kept me on the edge of my seat and I wanted more. I didn't want the movie to end. In a way, it didn't, Die Hard 2: Die Harder was almost as good as the original and Die Hard 3: Die Hard with a Vengeance was almost as good as the first sequel. I give the original film a 9.5, the second a 9.0, and the third a 8.5. But I don't want to see a Die Hard movie drop below 8 so stop while you're ahead.
