January 22, 2008An adrenaline-fueled actioner that has completely reinvented the action-adventure genre for years to come. Pure escape entertainment at its best.

October 20, 2009Die Hard was probably the end all, be all of action movies 20 years ago, but by now the things that it helped make so popular have become genre staples. Someone who is seeing the movie for the first time in 2009 (like me) can't help but compare it to all the other action movies t...( read more)

September 17, 2009The original ?Man in a vest kicks ass? action movie. The difference with this film is that unlike action movies of its kind that came before, Bruce Willis wasn?t a muscle-bound moron with no acting abilities.

Credit to Alan Rickman, for bringing the villain Hans Gruber to life. 'Die Hard' easily outshines director John McTiernan's other great efforts in 'Predator', 'Hunt for Red October' and 'Last Action Hero'. I found more videoclips - http://loadingvault.com
