Seven guys with seven wives....

Rating: 9/10 (12 February 2013)

McClane is now suspended from the NYPD, but when a bomb goes off in the Bonwit Teller Department Store the police go insane trying to figure out what's going on.
Soon, a man named Simon calls and asks for McClane. Simon tells the Inspector that McClane is going to play a game called "Simon Says".
He says that McClane is going to do the tasks he assigns him. If not, he'll blow off another bomb. With the help of a Harlem electrician, McClane must race all over New York trying to figure out the frustrating puzzles that the terrorist gives him.
But when a bomb goes off in a subway station right by the Federal Reserve (the biggest gold storage in the world) things start to get heated up.....
It was great to see another Die Hard movie get released, although this took the lone man versus a great number of people (the essence of Die Hard) and gave it a spin, with brilliant results.
If this was just another action movie with some other action star, it would have been average, but include McCkane, and the wit his character has, you get something special.
Jackson makes a welcome addition to the franchise, and the pair have great, sweaty chemistry together. The race theme, could have been toned down a little, especially without the inclusion of why Zeus brother was killed, but it does make the pairing a little more intense.
With a neat little,twist referring the first movie, and Irons best panto villain, DHWAV is the franchises second best entry, thanks to tight directing by Mctiernan, exciting set pieces, and a brilliant pairing with Willis and Jackson.
A brilliant sequel, and a brilliant action movie.
