He who fights and runs away, lives to die hard another day. This rocks!

Rating: 9/10 (20 July 1999)

Nobody can deny that the first two Die Hard movies were among the best action films ever made. But, like most trilogies (Star Wars and The Godfather are exceptions), the first is the best, the second is good, and the third (compared to the first two) is the worst. While Die Hard with a Vengeance isn't a bad action movie, it just doesn't reach that level of greatness that the first two flicks had. Samuel L. Jackson is particularly enjoyable as prejudiced shop owner Zeus Carver (What, you think I'm Puerto Rican?! He said 'Hey, Zeus,' not Jesus!). Die Hard with a Vengeance is a great thrill ride, and well worth the money of a rental.
