Die Hard and Die Harder
- Rating:
- Director:
- Starring: Alan Rickman
- Details: US / 18.
Maverick cop John McClane manages to be in the wrong place at the wrong..twice! In Die Hard McClane (Willis) flies to LA to see his estranged wife. He lands in the middle of her Xmas party, as its being hijacked (of course!) by the cold and calculated Hans Gruber (Rickman).
In Die Harder the plot is very much the same, but the setting is in an airport and the master criminal is Colonel Stuart (Sadler).
Die Hard and Die Harder are entertaining action films, with plenty of action and one liners to keep you amused. This 4 disc set is a must for fans!

How much more Wes Anderson can this be, and the answer is none – none more Wes Anderson. If The Darjeeling Limited was Wes Anderson turned down a notch then Moonrise Kingdom is Wes Anderson... [more]
