ALL-TIME CLASSIC MOVIE FAVOURITES – DIE HARD 2: DIE HARDER (1992)

 

“Die Hard 2: Die Harder” is an action thriller, screenplay by Doug Richardson and Steven E. de Souza from the Novel by Walter Wager, and Directed by Renny Harlin.

The sequel to Die Hard follows on from the terrifying events in Los Angeles, NYPD cop John McClane (Bruce Willis) is about to go through it all again as he goes on another Christmas vacation to meet his wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) and he is in Washington where he is at the airport meeting Holly off the LA flight.

But while he is waiting, a team of terrorists, led by Col. Stuart (William Sadler), holds the entire airport hostage, while they plan to rescue a drug Lord, Esperanza (Franco Nero) from justice.

As part of that plan they have seized control of all the control systems affecting all aircraft, with no runway lights available, and no means to contact them, all aircraft have to remain in the air, with fuel running low, so if McClane is going to save the day again he will need to be fast.

It’s another great action thriller with Willis still at the top of his game.
