Die Hard 2 is the best part in the franchise. This is a selected 90s fighter with an interestingly staged suspense. Excellent acting by Bruce Willis, who was at the peak of his career.

It's a sad commentary, but every year around the holidays I start thinking about John McClain. That is how ingrained media has become in our minds. This week I decided to watch Die Hard 2 for the 8 millionth time, because unlike most sequels,It's a sad commentary, but every year around the holidays I start thinking about John McClain. That is how ingrained media has become in our minds. This week I decided to watch Die Hard 2 for the 8 millionth time, because unlike most sequels, I found it to be better than the first. Not to say that the first isn't a classic film, but the second one has two things the first lacked. First, Director, Renny Harlan, who is the master of action films, completely unappreciated, and a man who has given me hours of excitement. The second thing is the supporting cast, which features the likes of Dennis Franz from NYPD Blue, Fred Thompson of Law n' Order, and of course veteran character actor, William Sadler. Willis once again is brilliant as John McClain and gave the 90's a true action hero! The Die Hard films are the frame work by which all modern action films are compared and if you skipped the second one, because it was a sequel, you're an idiot! This is a can't miss movie for action junkies.… Expand

After Die Hard hit it's predecessor for the audience and me, Die Hard 2 hit the big screen. It may not be as good as each other but it's still had the thrills and action and the music from Michael Kamen. Bruce Willis reprises his role as JohnAfter Die Hard hit it's predecessor for the audience and me, Die Hard 2 hit the big screen. It may not be as good as each other but it's still had the thrills and action and the music from Michael Kamen. Bruce Willis reprises his role as John McClane and all the suspense with the action still hits the film with all the dignity. After the people are saved at the Nakakomi Plaza, John has to save the people at the airport from the plane crashes caused by the terrorists including Col. Stuart played by William Sadler. There's only one plane crash which is caused by Col. Stuart and John gets upset. The people who are not from the first film know John McClane because he saved hostages at the Nakatomi Plaza. Jeez, that's a coincidence. I actually love the ending fight scene and the plane explosion. Surely I can't even get over this movie much like the first film. I would talk much about it but I can't do it anymore. It's just McClane shooting terrorists and saving the airport even though I know what causes the plane crash. It took place on Christmas Eve much like the first Die Hard and Bruce still says the line that is from the first film. Yep, you guessed it, "Yippie-ki-yay, motherf£$ker!" I'll bet he says that in all of the Die Hard films. While Die Hard is the most popular and memorable film of all time, Die Hard 2 had it's reputation to become a sequel and to think that Die Hard had to milk in all the sequels to impress audience and critics and myself alike. Many people say that this is the worst out of all of them, well I disagree with them, I just love and think it's a great sequel, okay, not that great but still good. But now the fifth film came out, people went mad. They said they don't like the fifth film and calling it a piece of crap. The recent Die Hard films are nothing compare to the old ones. And in the third film, it won't be the same with Holly McClane, Richard Thornberg and Al Powell from the first one to be precise. Yeah, I know he had a small role in the second film which I'm doing but that's just when he was in Los Angeles. Either ways that's Die Hard 2, a sequel to Die Hard, have my congratulations.… Expand

Fantastic movie.

It takes all the stuff that was great about the first die hard (christmas time, simple but extremely exciting and engaging story, good character, great acting etc.) and basically does all that again, but puts it into aFantastic movie.

Die Hard 2 might have a different setting from the first one, but it still was astonishing. One thing that made it great was that it was directed by Renny Harlin(A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 director. Both are great films). Another reason was that it had fantastic development. Yes, some of the villains were forgettable, but Die Hard 2 is still fun and sometimes creative.… Expand

Como la primera, esta es un joyita divertida y graciosa. La idea del aeropuerto es genial, y mantiene un ritmo intenso durante las dos horas. Genial!!

Basically a knock-off of the original Die Hard but with one of the most memorable death scenes in film history. Still enjoyable and featuring Canadian actress Sheila McCarthy of 'Little Mosque on the Prairie' fame.

It looks like a rehash... maybe because I was too blindfolded to see that. Oh, it is. Not only that, but it's also enjoyable and it builds up a stack of freshness to keep the movie going.

Die Hard 2 loses the surprise effect and is worse than the first one, but does that make it a bad movie? Not at all.
We have in our hands a very entertaining movie with a Bruce Willis who is still unleashed.

Uma sequência esquisita,porém excelente,De volta em problemas graves para resolver McClane salva Los Angeles de atentados terroristas ao aeroporto em aviões em circulações. Também cheio de ação e com excelente atuação de Bruce Willis.
