I submit that it is

Almost every detail is accounted for

It basks in male masculinity

It’s makes a man proud to be an alpha

It lets us know it’s OK to frick commie foreigners up when they step foot in AMERICA

And it reminds us of the true spirit of Christmas - it’s better to give a can of whoop-arse than to receive

Mcclane was pretty damn sensetive too. But yeah, well written movie, fantastic villain and support characters and we are gonna need more FBI guys.

For an 80’s action movie, it really is well written

Watching it now and I am impressed how small lines of dialog set up the possible plot points later in the movie

Nowadays they would just let that slide

the last scene of the movie solidifies it being a christmas movie to me. The two characters kiss and ride off with "Let it Snow" playing.

Perhaps.

Yes.


There are a handful of legitimate perfect films. Die Hard is one of them. It's the perfect action movie.

The Thing, Throne of Blood, Lawrence of Arabia, Vertigo are some others.

I like how at the start of the movie somebody on the plane sees his gun and he's all "It's ok, I'm a cop" and they're like oh ok carry on.

Had right mix of humor without being James Bond campy
