"Die Hard" is a terrific example of what happens when all the pieces of a film fall together perfectly. There simply are no weak spots or dull moments in the film. Is "Die Hard" one of the best overall movies ever made? Probably not. But it's undeniably one of the best action movies ever made.

Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Definitely! Is it the best Christmas movie? The best non-traditional Christmas movie. It isn't Christmas until I see the Hans drop. A yearly must watch. Nothing else puts me in the the Christmas spirit quite like Die Hard.

[7.9/10] John McClane and Hans Gruber joke a lot about the idea of John as a cowboy. They name drop the likes of John Wayne. McClane drops his famous “yippee-ki-yay motherfucker.” He even adopts the name “Roy” as his nom de guerre, as a wry tribute to Roy Rogers. And it’s not hard to see w More

There’s a reason why this has been ripped off by a dozen other films. The plot is so well constructed that it gets away with being as serious as it is, despite coming out during a time where being as cheesy and over the top as possible seemed to be the name in the game. The characters and dialogue More

The Five Faces of **_DIE HARD_**

------

:heart_eyes:

There's no snow, Christmas trees or Santa, but _Die Hard_ is the ultimate holiday Christmas action film classic.

**Alan Rickman** gives one of his greatest performances as the villainous and brutal Hans Gruber. It's a joy to More
