STORYLINE:

"Die Hard 2," also known as "Die Hard 2: Die Harder," is the second installment in the "Die Hard" series. Once again, Bruce Willis reprises his role as NYPD officer John McClane. Set on Christmas Eve, McClane finds himself at Washington Dulles International Airport, where terrorists take control of the air traffic control system. He must thwart their plans and ensure the safety of his wife and other passengers on a circling aircraft. The film combines intense action with a suspenseful plot, in the spirit of its predecessor.


STAFF REVIEW:

Directed by Renny Harlin, "Die Hard 2" successfully replicates the high-stakes action and tension of the original film. Bruce Willis delivers another strong performance as John McClane, embodying the quintessential action hero. The film's action sequences, especially the climactic scenes, are well-executed, making it a worthy sequel in the "Die Hard" franchise.
