The classic of John McClane is having a really bad day

Rating: 9/10 (18 August 2018)

In my opinion, this is the best movie in the 'Die Hard' series. It has become a classic shown around Christmas time, since the action in the movie takes place around this holiday.
When the NY police officer John McClane (played by Bruce Willis) lands in LA to visit his family, he has no idea that his day will turn into a nightmare where he will be outgunned and outmanned while trying to survive and trying to find his way out of this mess.
While the performance of Bruce Willis as John McClane didn't win him any awards, this should be considered as his iconic break-out into fame role. As a protagonist of this movie he's by no means perfect, but still gets the audience on his side while he battles his nemesis Hans Gruber. Hans is brilliantly played by Alan Rickman - he's confident, ruthless and one step ahead of law enforcement in terms of executing his plan. The only thing he didn't account for was... John McClane.
The movie provides an entertaining battle between the two, while also throws some punches and makes fun of the police, the FBI and the media about how clichÃ© and ignorant they can be in crisis situations.
If you like action movies, this definitely is a must-see or as John McClane would say, "Welcome to the party, pal."
