It's Christmas time in L.A. and on the 30th floor of the Nakatomi Corporation building there's an employee party in progress. The revelry comes to a violent end when the partygoers are taken hostage by a group of terrorists headed by Hans Gruber, who plans to steal the 600 million dollars locked in Nakatomi's high-tech safe. Gruber and his henchmen pretend to be politically motivated in order to throw the authorities off track. Gruber has no intention of allowing anyone to get out of the building alive. Meanwhile, New York cop John McClane has come to L.A. to visit his estranged wife, Holly, who happens to be one of the hostages. Disregarding the orders of the authorities surrounding the building, McClane takes on the villains, armed with one handgun and plenty of cunning.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

great action movie submitted by jszchen on August 26, 2011, 9:42pm Quite possibly the best modern action movie since the classic "Dirty Harry"

Die Hard submitted by SBNB on August 9, 2013, 5:06pm Good movie. I could probably watch it again.

A classic submitted by asopijw65 on August 4, 2014, 8:40pm An action packed classic. A true Christmas story.

Die Hard submitted by yenkong on July 1, 2017, 10:55am Classic movie. I watch it multiple times and will watch again.

Action movie that even non action fans like! submitted by pk on August 29, 2020, 8:45pm This action movie has the usual bad guys, good guys, explosions, etc. But it has such humor and great characters that you can't help but love it. Bruce Willis is on his game here! Even if you usually don't like action movies, give it a try!

One of the best submitted by RebeccaWittekindt on July 7, 2023, 1:28am If not the greatest action movie of all time, it’s definitely top five. It holds up, and even created a sub-genre for action that everybody tried to replicate. And of course, Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber broke the mold when it came to villains.

An action classic submitted by brooksza on August 5, 2023, 12:04pm I don't know how anyone argues that this isn't a Christmas movie. It's a great one to watch during the Christmas season. The fire hose stunt is the best. Random thought but I wondered why Notre Dame and USC were playing football on Christmas Eve? Bowl game?
