Die Hard
1988 · ★ 7.8 · Dir. John McTiernan
Twelve terrorists. One cop. The odds are against John McClane... That's just the way he likes it.
NYPD cop John McClane's plan to reconcile with his estranged wife is thrown for a serious loop when, minutes after he arrives at her office, the entire building is overtaken by a group of terrorists. With little help from the LAPD, wisecracking McClane sets out to single-handedly rescue the hostages and bring the bad guys down.
