Nice transfer to Blu-Ray
Added 11/23/2009
I've seen this movie now in the theater, VHS, DVD and now on blu-ray. I can say for sure that the Blu-Ray version is the best version around. Anyone that tries to say that this version wasn't encoded up to blu-ray standards and is basically the same quality as dvd is full of it. Sure there are some scenes that are blurry - they were blurry when the movie was filmed guys, blu-ray isn't going to clear that up. What it did do was really bring to life the rest of the movie that was shot in focus. There are a select few scenes where the color is off-balanced as well. The other 98% of the movie is done fantastically well. I for one am glad that i took the chance on it. Trust me, it's a clear upgrade on an HDTV from the DVD version.

best action movie ever made
Added 9/7/2009
i watch this whenever its on cable, i dont care if i've seen it 100 times (i have) and my dad likes it a lot too.however i would suggest you cover your ears now and then because the language does get a little ROUGH if you know what i mean, but after you watch this one you will say "arnold who" because bruce wilson is just THAT good. if you haven't you should also check out die hard 3 and terminator as well. its a real treat. see you at the movies!

An Action Classic
Added 9/3/2009
'Die Hard' is a must see show for anyone who loves action movies.
Bruce Willis stars as New York police Officer John McClane. He and his wife, Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) are separated. She has taken a job transfer to Los Angeles. John travels to the West Coast to visit her and the kids for the holidays.
The trip starts off with an appearance at her company Christmas party. This international firm is targeted by European terrorists who seize the office during the party. Officer McClane is not present in the room when the seizure occurs. When he hears what is going on, he starts targeting the bad guys.
This is full of excitement from start to finish. Willis does a great job as the hero. Reginald Veljohnson is another great character as LA Police Sgt. Al Powell. Although Powell is not central to the heroics, he is a good addition to the plot helping to inject a little humor and human touch into the show.
This is really a superb show. If you have not seen it, you are long overdue.

This is easy to use and a good instructional tool for any teacher who wants to teach the editing, shot selection, and visual story telling process.

A Very Good Sequel
Added 9/3/2009
Although I do not think it is as great as the original 'Die Hard', this installment is another show with lots of action and some terrific scenes. It will keep viewers interested throughout.
Bruce Willis is back as the hero. Now he is living in Los Angeles and is a lieutenant with the LAPD. This segment has him traveling. He is in Washington, D.C. waiting at the Dulles Airport for his wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) to arrive on a flight. Some strange things are happening and McClane's situational awareness is sky high. He picks up on some serious operators roaming around and picks up on a terrorist plot.
This show is full of implausible happenings, but it is great fun nevertheless. McClane has some unbelievable moments in his heroics. The bad guys are ex Special Forces and very dangerous opponents.
I certainly enjoyed this flick a lot. I think it is worth watching.
