My quick rating - 8,8/10. One of the greatest action movies of all time and also happens to be a Xmas classic even if Bruce Willis won't admit it (see the previous link or remember The Comedy Central Roast of Bruce Willis) Again, I am not going to go too far into this since entire books have been written on the subject. The late Alan Rickman turns in the performance of a career as the thief Hans Gruber in a very straightforward heist that goes anything but simple. The action is non-stop, the humor is perfectly timed and John McClane just keeps coming back. Needs to be in the rotation of any action movie fan on Christmas eve for sure. 'Nuff said.
