When tough NYC cop John McClane (Bruce Willis) travels to LA to reconcile with his estranged wife, terrorists seize her building and only he can stop them.

With spectacular special effects, thrilling stunt work and plenty of explosives, a singlet-clad, barefoot Bruce Willis battles the urbane German terrorist Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) and the Japanese corporation.

‘Not only is it a thrill-a-minute ride, but it has one of the best film villains in recent memory, a hero everyone can relate to, dialogue that crackles with wit, and a lot of very impressive pyrotechnics.’ – ReelViews
