IMDb plot summary: John McClane and a Harlem store owner are targeted by German terrorist Simon Gruber in New York City, where he plans to rob the Federal Reserve Building.
Directed by John McTiernan. Starring Bruce Willis, Jeremy Irons, Samuel L. Jackson, and Graham Greene.
The first Die Hard is a wonderfully taut thriller. This one is so bloated with extra fight scenes and plot points and silly riddles. The movie winds to its conclusion right around 1:25 and then just... keeps going. Cut like 40 minutes out of it and it'd be fun. As it is, it wears out its welcome.
How it entered my Flickchart:
Die Hard With a Vengeance < Lord of War
Die Hard With a Vengeance > The Children's Hour
Die Hard With a Vengeance > Double Jeopardy
Die Hard With a Vengeance < The Big Sleep

Final spot: #1737 out of 2803.
