Product Description
20th Century Die Hard 3: Die Hard With A Vengeance (Blu-ray) The third installment of the hugely succesful "Die Hard" series, reteams Bruce Willis and director John McTiernan in a new action/adventure extravaganza of special effects, unexpected comedy and non-stop thrills.

Amazon.com essential video
The second sequel to the mold-making action film Die Hard brings Detective John McClane (Bruce Willis) to New York City to face a better villain than in Die Hard 2. Played by Jeremy Irons, he's the brother of the Germanic terrorist-thief Alan Rickman played in the original film. But this bad guy has his sights set higher: on the Federal Reserve's cache of gold. As a distraction, he sets McClane running fool's errands all over New York--and eventually, McClane attracts an unintentional partner, a Harlem dry cleaner (Samuel L. Jackson) with a chip on his shoulder. Some great action sequences, though they can't obscure the rather large plot holes in the film's final 45 minutes. --Marshall Fine

5 out of 5 stars 4.5 stars   November 23, 2008
D. K. Stokes
The director from the first Die Hard is back, as is the concept of the bad guys being super-thieves. Both of which, I think, make this one better than Die Hard 2. The presence of Samuel L. Jackson doesn't hurt, either.

Cop John McClane (Bruce Willis) is back in New York, but he's suspended from the NYPD and going downhill along with his marriage, when he's called back because some crazy bomber calling himself Simon (Jeremy Irons) has set bombs all over the city and is threatening to blow them all up unless McClane does exactly what Simon Says.

The first thing he's required to do is wear a racist signboard in downtown Harlem. A store owner named Zeus (Samuel L. Jackson) comes to his aid and ends up getting roped into the game as well.

The games were... mostly... fun, but I had a little trouble believing them--it was an awful lot of effort for the small reward of making McClane run all over the city and keeping the cops focused elsewhere. Seems like the same result could have been achieved by just the bomb in the school.

And speaking of school... I was a little insulted that both McClane and Zeus had trouble with the "St. Ives" riddle--didn't everyone learn that when they were schoolkids? One of them at least should have recognized it.

And of course, there was the requisite CB (aka "crazy bitch"), who's pretty much just there for shock value, but since the CB is so awfully common (well, this was 12 years ago, so maybe it wasn't so common then?), the shock value's pretty diminished.

Other than that, though--and those things are easy enough to ignore--it's action-packed, full of twists and turns, and exciting.

Best Story line of all the Die Hards.Bruce Willis give his best acting
job of his career. Samuel Jackson brings an attitude to his role that
made me want to see him in other movies!



4 out of 5 stars Good fun chase movie, some great action   November 4, 2008
Chris Wood (UK)
This is a good sequel, worth seeing and still manages to pack a few surprises. Great setpieces and one liners, plus some stunts that are well worth seeing. Good entertainment.

Hobie Trivitte (San Diego, CA)
This is a guy movie for guys who like movies. If you ever liked Bruce Willis flicks, or the old Die Hard franchise, then you should like this one as well. It was fun. The caracter is completely indestructable. He can jump out of a moving car, get a scratch, and keep on going. He can slide down a destroyed bridge's offramp, and somehow avoid piercing himself on the twisted rebar below. Suspend your disbelief. You will dig it!


5 out of 5 stars Better than the other two.   September 4, 2008
Will Pearce (Houston, Texas)
One of my few day shifts at the post office, so I was able to go! The theater was right across from the plant and I met my buddy, Danny, who got free promo tickets for opening night or my buddy Dave won them but could not show. I can not remember, but I think it is the latter. It was exciting going to a premier showing; they had draws, local celebrities, save the Jets campaign, etc. The movie was ok. Another typical action movie, but I like the water Jug part. I hope many of you can guess the mystery, my mathematically inclined friend did, and myself a little after the movie. Bruce Willis does not do the over the top annoying borderline jerk character, and I like the more realistic role.
