Hard” is an action thriller, screenplay by Jeb Stuart Steven and E. de Souza,
from the novel by Roderick Thorp, and Directed by John McTiernan.
The
story centres on NYPD cop John McClane (Bruce Willis) who goes on a Christmas
vacation to visit his wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) in Los Angeles where she
works for the Nakatomi Corporation.
He
is picked up from the airport by limo driver Argyle (De'voreaux White) who
drops him at the Nakatomi Tower where the office Christmas party was taking
place.
While
they are there amidst a tense reunion, a group of bank robbers, led by Hans
Gruber (Alan Rickman), takes control of the building and holds everyone
hostage, with the exception of John, who escapes up the fire escape.
However,
unable to leave the building and with no immediate police response, John is
forced to take matters into his own hands and causes havoc while the bad guys
try to execute their plan to perform a lucrative heist.
It’s
a great action thriller with Willis at the top of his game.
