Rating: Summary: Classic, but with diminishing returns Review: Without Die Hard, Bruce Willis would probably be toiling away on some ill-fated 5th-network action TV series. Die Hard was enough to catapult him into the movie star elite -- and keep him there, despite a varied track record.Each of these films gets grander in scope. Die Hard gives you a single building; Die Hard 2, an airport; Die Hard with a Vengeance, an entire city. The problem is, they all essentially rehash the same plot while never managing to top the original. You can't go wrong with the original -- easily a five-star movie. Action is played against early-established characterization so you actually care about the characters and what happens to them. Die Hard 2 relies too much on the original for characterization; it's redundant and falls pretty flat. The third film offers excellent rapport between Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson, and that added characterization saves the somewhat-convoluted plot. Overall, probably not the worst investment you could make. But unless you're a die hard Die Hard fan, just owning the first film will probably satisfy what you're looking for in this series.
Rating: Summary: Bruce Gets down Review: In this action-packed drama, Bruce Willis has to kick some butts. When a building is taken hostage, the action begins. Watch as as John Mclane, Bruce Willis and some others, get it on.
Rating: Summary: Yippee kay yay yeah mother Review: Action, NY cop, guns, terrorists, machine guns, crazy situations John McClain gets into...and out of, bombs and more guns.
Rating: Summary: Three classic action spectaculars Review: A must-have for fans of Bruce Willis or any die-hard action afficiniados. The "Die Hard Trilogy" combines some of the most splendid action scenes that ever exploded onto the screen, the most spectacular effects, the most memorable lines and possibly the most endearing hero, John McClane, who is constantly pitted against innumerable enemies and impossible odds. The first film is undeniably great. The second is more action-packed, but lacks the wit, logic and subtlety of the original. The third reduces characters and situations alike into cartoon formula. Each in its different way, however, is simply great, unbeatable entertainment.
Rating: Summary: Good action pack Review: If you consider Die hard trilogy like movies, you would be disappointed, but if you consider it like a product so you could enjoy it. Bruce Willis is a very good actor only if you consider that he acts in the same category of Arnold and Stallone. If you like big boum-boum and machine-gunning you'll probably like the trilogy.
Rating: Summary: Die Harder! Review: Each Die hard has a graet share of action also all keeping you on the edge of your seat waiting for the next event.The best of them all is #3. It is packed with great action gripping suspense and riddles that will drive you nuts.
Rating: Summary: A must have for action fans Review: Die Hard when you say that only one thing comes to mind action.Die Hard being the best out of this trilogy masterd in THX, the picture quality is clear and the sound is fantastic so pop some popcorn and get your pop or beer and hang on for a wild ride.
Rating: Summary: Definately worth a look. Review: If you enjoy the movies and have the extra dough, this is definately a good buy. The movies are very enjoyable, my favorite being Die Hard with a Vengence. My only complaint is no anamorphic format, but if you don't have a widescreen tv this won't affect you. Yipi-ki-yay!
