This was the 1st out of all the Die Hard movies I ever heard. I even remember watching the ending when it was broadcast on HBO when I was seven years old and I never saw it again till I was a teenager. For this installment, McClane (Bruce Willis) and an unwilling store owner name Zeus (Samuel L. Jackson) play a mysterious bomber’s deadly game of Simon Says while they race around New York City trying to stop him. This movie was originally developed as “Simon Says” that would’ve starred Brandon Lee and later considered the premise for Lethal Weapon 4. John McTiernan, the director of the 1st Die Hard, made this one into an action-packed rollercoaster ride with lots of huge action sequences. The scene where McClane is put into serious jeopardy while he is in Harlem was the most horrible sequence out of the whole movie. I loved the performances of Samuel L. Jackson as McClane’s reluctant partner Zeus and the incredible Jeremy Irons as the mad bomber Simon. I loved how this movie takes place in New York City. I mean hey, that’s why we know that John McClane is an N.Y.P.D. cop. DIE HARD WITH A VENGENCE, along with DIE HARD and DIE HARD 2, are the best ones I like and not including the 4th.
