    A massive disapointment, why is it called Die Hard With a Vengeance when i think it should be called die hard 3: With a Vengeance. now
    John McClane and a store owner must play a bomber's deadly game as they race around New York while trying to stop him. at the star it was a bit racist it shows what was with all the racisum and voilence round that time and it has stopped now. die hard 3 as two more hollywood film actor who are Samuel L. Jackson and Jeremy Irons and that is not one of the things which doesn`t disappoint this movie and there performances were great. this film had some great action sences in it and much more better than die hard 2 die harder. i wasn`t to sure on the ending for Die Hard With a Vengeance (Die Hard 3) and that is one of the reasons why it was a bit of a disapointment.

    Not as good as the first but better than the sequel, John McTiernan revitalized the franchise he started... a good action movie with a decent plot twist...

    The mind games and Samuel L. Jackson bring McClane to a new level.


    Other than the fourth, this is the best of the Die Hard sequels.

    Officer Jon MacLane finds himself back in the New York City Police Department. Separated from his wife and on suspension, MacLane is called back to duty when a mysterious mad bomb named Simon insists on his participation in the games he has set for the police officer to play for keeping him for bombing other parts of the city. MacLane is teamed with a Good Samaritan minority who is reluctant to work with the police on the ordeal. Can MacLane and his reluctant partner find the bombs Simon has planted around the city and the connection he has with MacLane himself?
    Die Hard with a Vengeance is a fun movie. Yeas the movie is filled with some ridiculous action, but what action movie isn?t? Samuel L. Jackson does a fantastic job being paired with Bruce Willis and the two play off each other extremely well, showing the two different worlds they are coming from. John McTiernan returns to direct the third installment and does an excellent job keeping the Die Hard faithful happy with this installment. Die Hard with a Vengeance receives four out of five Yippe-ky-yays for being a pure adrenaline rush for the fans to enjoy.

    Completely broke away from the formula of the first two films but not for the better. The McClane character works better solo as long as he seems like an average Joe. However, the later films of the Die Hard series turn him into a dialogue-less, indestructible guy with a loud sidekick. If only Hollywood would learn that a hero with vulnerabilities is better than unstoppable man.

    I absolutely HATED this installment! I actually sat stunned in the theater as the End Credits rolled. How could have it all gone so wrong? No Joel Silver as producer, none of the first two installment's screenwriters, and John McTiernan past his prime. B-a-d !

    this is the third sequel of "die hard". bruce willis is back to action of a heroes.
    since john mcclane fought the terriorists in l.a. and then he fought terriorists at the airport in washington d.c. this time
    in new york. he with his cilvilian parter zeus(samuel l. jackson who reuntion with bruce willis in "pulp fiction" and then "unbreakable")
    and meet "mystery" terrorist leader was...simon and it was han gruber's(from the terriorist leader from the original)brother.
    great car chasing scene and next sequel by 2007 "live free or die hard" since "die hard with a vengeance" in 12 years and reprise only for bruce willis did all the "die hard trilogy".

    The third "Die Hard" movie does not spare a second with any type of build up, it's starts off right away with John McClane (Bruce Willis) being forced to play a 'Simon says' game with a bomb terrorist. On his mission he teams up with a electrician from Harlem named Zeus (Samuel L. Jackson). This is my personal favorite in the "Die Hard" series, entertaining, action packed and at times funny, the only complaint I have is that the ending could have been shorter. Other than that "Die Hard With A Vengeance" is action at it\s best.

    Put me to sleep in the theatre the first time I saw it. The weakest of the original three but I have seen it since and it's better than I remembered.

    Die Hard With a Vengeance was way better than the second one, but not even comparable to the first one. I really liked how they teamed him up with somene in this one, it really added to the film.

    Simon says this is the Best Die hard of all of them.Vengeance introduces Samuel L. Jackson as Zeus Carver, Willis' reluctant partner. Jeremy Irons plays the main villain, Simon Gruber. It was directed by John McTiernan and written by Jonathan Hensleigh. It was followed by Live Free or Die Hard in 2007.The antagonist in this movie is Simon Gruber (Jeremy Irons), brother of Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman, who, like Irons, was an English actor playing a German). Hans was a German criminal who was killed by NYPD cop John McClane (Bruce Willis) at the climax of Die Hard, the first film in the series. It first appears as though Simon is out to avenge his brother's death, but it is later revealed that other motives are at work.
    The first half of Die Hard with a Vengeance is almost identical to Simon Says; the robbery was added to bring the story in line with other Die Hard films. The original plan was to have the villains burgle the Metropolitan Museum of Art, an idea not used here, but which appears in John McTiernan's film The Thomas Crown Affair and also the video game Die Hard: Vendetta.Brilliant storyline.And how great it is to John.Cuz without him the 2nd was became weak.
    And Bruce Willis awesome,Samuel L.JAckson was the best sidekick of action movies..and Jeremy Irons was one helluva villain (smart,german accent and the face of him just remind you man who is always quiet and be a mastermind)

    One of the Best Action Movies OF All-Time

    Not the finest of the trilogy, but better than the sequel. Both Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson blow your mind away accordingly.

    Right after the original, my favorite Die Hard film. Probably because of Jeremy Irons and his dominating presence.
