My thoughts, this is the greatest action movie ever. I just wish that we had gotten more movies pairing Willis and Jackson. Their on-screen chemistry is amazing. They work off each other so well.

I say the first 4 are good. They all hold true to who John McClain is.

The number one thing everyone always asks after watching this movie: There are two solutions to the jug problem. The first solution: Fill the 5, pour into the 3, leaving two behind in the 5. Dump the 3 out, put the two from the 5 into the 3, then fill the 5 again. Pour water from the filled 5 into the 3, which will take one out of the 5, leaving four behind in the 5. The second solution: Fill the 3, put it in the 5. Fill the 3 again, put it in 5, leaving one behind in the 3. Dump the 5, transfer the one from the 3 in the 5, then fill the 3 again and add to the 5 as well for a total of four. The movie was originally written as a spec script with original characters. The writer, Jonathan Hensleigh, said a good third of the movie, up until the Gruber revelation, is exactly as he wrote it with the only exception being the character names. Joel Silver really wanted to buy it and turn it into a Lethal Weapon movie, but Fox won the bidding war and it became Die Hard With a Vengeance instead. (I believe it is rumored that Speed was written as a Die Hard sequel at one point as well.) The film also initially had a much darker ending. After the boat blows up, Simon gets away with the money, smuggling it out of the country as Statue of Liberty souvenir keychains. Months later, McClane hunts him down in a small bar in a foreign country, telling him he was fired from the police department for failing to catch him, and that his life has fallen apart completely. He has a small rocket launcher with him with the directional arrows removed, and he places it on the table, and they play "Simon Says" with the challenge being to decide which direction to point it and then set it off. Naturally, Simon loses the game and McClane says his famous catchphrase. Audiences didn't like it, because they didn't want John to lose everything, so they reshot the whole finale with the Canadian asprin bottle.

Wouldn't the person standing behind the rocket launcher be pretty badly burned by the rocket exhaust and probably die anyway?

Guess it's because nobody travels with trunks anymore. All just bags and suitcases.

Simon had a hell of a plan. His only mistake was getting McClane involved.

"I can make it..." Sam Jackson's character arc as Zeus is fantastic. From not wanting to get involved to ready to jump off a bridge 😅 I think having a civilian sidekick really elevates DH3, and it also works well in 4 (Live Free or Die Hard). 4 is July 4th themed, so hopefully you can work it into your schedule.

You absolutely have to watch Die Hard 4. It has Justin Long, Maggie Q, Timothy Olyphant and Cliff Curtis. This one is my favorite. I think it is better than the second one.

Kaielle, Whassup homie!? “Not even God knows what you’re doin’ McClaine!!” Glad you kept this series going. Also, thank you for deciding to watch the whole series for your own satisfaction, which is how all the other reactors should do. I understand the first Die Hard is a classic. I think this one is arguably the best Die Hard. However, the next one (Live Free or Die Hard) is my favorite.

This might be my top 5 best Samual L Jackson movies. Him and Bruce Willis had crazy chemistry!!!

Apparently, the heist scene was "real" enough that the FBI questioned the writer about how he knew so much about the Federal Reserve layout, the proximity to a subway spur, etc. And..um...they tightened up security to make sure something like it couldn't happen.🚚

Love the chemistry between Samuel and Bruce in this one. They really made this thing. Especially after Pulp Fiction:) Jeremy Irons is great also as the bother of Hans who also acknowledges that he’s an asshole. Love that for him:) But having Bruce and Sam having to solve riddles throughout NYC is priceless:)

I just wanted to take a moment and say that your hair looks amazing! Bangs look so good on you!

The original will always be my favourite, since I was 15 when it came out and the kind of nostalgia is hard to beat, but this one is right there alongside it. The chemistry between Bruce and Sam is a thing of beauty and they stepped up the pacing just enough to keep you pretty much constantly on edge. Also, if I may be so bold, the bangs are very adorable. 😁😍

This movie reminds me so much of my childhood for some reason, so thanks for bringing that back. Also, love the bangs!

"I'm a soldier, not a monster", one of my favorite lines in the movie.

Hey Kaiielle, Thank you for liking my comment ❤ I sort of messed up I meant to say I love Samuel Jackson's line Hey zeus😂😂😂 I hope you watch more of his movies .

If you thought the Simon Says part was childish, you should see Dirty Harry. Bruce Willis does a different kind of character in The Jackal. Also, I highly recommend The Last Boy Scout.

Jeremy Irons is an Academy Award winning actor

You are REALLY good at spotting actors that are from other movies/TV shows

this was my favorite movie growing up and still is, excited to see what you watch next 🚚

I love this movie. The pacing is phenomenal and almost never lets up. New York City gets turned into one massive chaotic playground as McClane tears ass across the city to stop Simon. My only issue with the movie is the finale at North Of The Border because it feels a little disjointed from the rest of the movie since they changed the ending in reshoots. But otherwise, the movie is a great thrill ride that puts a much bigger spin on the Die Hard formula.

Jemery Irons (Simon) is so good in this role Kai. You will know his voice as Scar in The Lion King.

So good to have you back and another great reaction!!

🚚(best I could find.) So, you bought it... Hook, line, and sinker? :) I'm glad you're going to watch, at least, the next one. I find that I watch the 4th (the next one) the most often. The first, of course, is still the best. It's iconic. But, I've seen it a bunch already. This movie, with Samuel Jackson, is my 3rd favorite. 1, 4, 3. And, tied for last place for me: 2 and 5. (But, #5 isn't bad by any means. It's just a little different. You'll see when you get there. And, I'm going to be watching along with you! Thank you.) I agree: Jerry is legendary, indeed! Jerry, the beautician. Well... the truck driver. Thank you, as always, for the watch. I'm looking forward to whatever is next!

I love how you said 'rest in pieces ' at the end, it's one of my favourite phrases. A Samuel L Jackson film you might want to check out, which i also love, is The Negotiator (1998).

Yes! First off, welcome back. New hair. Okay I see you! 😆❤ I saw some people saying stuff but if anything breaks help your reactions.

Did you know that every president gets a library named after them..

yeah Jackson and Willis are brilliant together they were good in the M. Night Shyamalan movies too

I love that this movie is an ensemble performance. Everyone chips in and has personality. John couldn't have done it without all of them, and the chemistry is great. I would also recommend watching Die Hard 4. It's a solid sequel and worth watching.

I've no idea how they solved the jug puzzle lol. The method I always used was: -Fill 3L jug -Put 3L into 5L jug -Fill 3L jug again -Put 2L from the 3L into the 5L, leaving 1L in the 3L -Empty 5L jug -Put the 1L into the 5L jug -Fill the 3L jug -Put the 3L into the 5L jug -🎉SUCCESS🎉 Thats how my brain did it anyway lol

@mikhar

3 ай бұрын

Fill 5L jug, pour into the 3L jug, 2L remaining in the big jug. Empty small jug, pour the 2L into it. Fill the 5L jug and pour into the 3L (with room for only one litre). You end up with 4L in the big jug.

There's a dumptruck emoji? Anyway, what I really like about this film is that it ditched the trope from the first two movies (and 80's action films in general) of the authorities being useless beyond the lone wolf hero. Not only does he get a partner in Zeus, but the rest of the department, and even Jerry the truck driver, are shown to be heroic and effective as well. It's a refreshing change of pace from most everyone else just existing to be another impediment for the hero to overcome.

This movie is just full on nostalgia for me. One of the first ever movies I saw in the cinema, the weather in the movie was almost like every summer in the 90s where I live (which is rare), I got the Die Hard Trilogy game for the PlayStation 1 a year later and I played it so much, and I rewatched it so many times when I got it on VHS a couple of years later. Good Times. 😊 Also, love the hair. 🙂 Edit: I forgot the dump truck emoji. 🚚

Another fun fact kaiielle the youngest actor who played zeus youngest nephew ended up being in the last die hard movie . He also was in the psychological thriller " The invisible Man"

Fun fact: the evil crazy woman is Sam Phillips… she did the “la la” music in the Gilmore Girls. She’s a pretty great musician. Check out Omnipop and Martinis and Bikinis if you’re into 90s Lilith Fair ish alternative music. The next Die Hard, Live Free or Die Hard is actually my second favorite of the franchise. If you thought the partner chemistry was amazing in this one, I think you’ll like the partner chemistry between Bruce and Justin Long in 4 also. Plus, Kevin Smith is in the next one. My order of DH movies from best to worst is 1, 4, 3, 2, and 5. I’ll be interested in hearing what your order is once you are finished with all of them. Keep making awesome content Kaiielle! 🚚

love the bangs!

Fun fact kaiielle , the actor who played the cop Ricky who played his badge number when you play the lotto was also in die hard 1 . If you go back and watch part 1 who played the cop who is assisting Sergeant Al

This movie is awesome

"I wish I could go back and visit New York in the 90s." I live that regret every day. My parents were born and raised across the river, and I was born there in 89, but at three months old my parents decided to move 300 miles away. I love the city I grew up in, but it's not NYC.

The team-up in this movie is action flick perfection. The team-up in the next movie isn't bad either IMO.

Hair looks great kaiielle ❤

Glad your back.This was a good movie saw it in the theater for a pre screening I was 14 thought it was good still do glad you enjoyed and picked up on most of the clues. Hope your doing well

So the plan they had to rob the vault was actually so accurate and plausable the director was questioned by the FBI on how he knew it so well. lol They ended up tightening security after this film came out.

Bruce Willis deserved an everlasting career. Dementia is so cruel.

Yippee Ki-Yay! Welcome back!

Also speaking of movies back in theaters The Sony Spider-Man movies are coming back to theaters again too. Starting April 15th in release order with Toby Maguire Spider-Man every week a new one is going to be shown for that one Monday. Please go watch them if you're able to fit them in your schedule.

Welcome back.

Please watch The Last BoyScout. Another Bruce Willis gem!

🚛 You should've been a detective Kaielle 🕵️‍♀️ You pick up on the smallest clues. Like the asprin bottle, for example. You didn't know exactly what it meant, but you had a feeling it'd be a clue. I'm pretty sure when I saw that part the first time I was like, "Haha, he actually had asprin on him" and just laughed it off. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it. This my favorite movie in the Die Hard series because it was not only funny and action-packed but also had a buddy cop vibe to it. I'm pretty sure I also thought the bomb in the school was real the first time I saw it. I hope you'll watch the next Die Hard movie. I really like that one too. Also, fun fact. Before this script became a Die Hard movie. It was a movie called, Simon Says 😁

Am I the only one that wants to see Simon Gruber say, "Long live the king..."?

Part II 😁 Scanned your channel and didn't see a Monster category like; UNDERWORLD, BLADE, I FRANKENSTEIN (or any Frankenstein), etc and your Romance list was short but you have seen a lot!! ☮️

30 year's and I still don't get the water jug puzzle.

Great movie and awesome reaction

Lots of fun experiences in NYC. Like the earthquake we had today. LOL This is a tie with the first for me. Obvious bias of being a local and the nostalgia of watching this one on TV first as a teenager. Favorite line: "I'm a soldier, not a monster." Right up there with "Who said we were terrorists?" and "I am an exceptional thief, Mrs. McClane. And since I'm moving up to kidnapping, you should be more polite. " from the first one. _honkhonk_ 🚛

If you want more Jeremy Irons, I suggest: 1. The Mission (1986) w/ Robert DeNiro. 2. Brideshead Revisited (1981) - 11-episode miniseries.

Great Die Hard movie, for me is the second best, the first one still a timeless master piece. We all collectively agree that the fifth one is one of the biggest cinematic offenses against humanity, just skip that one.

Jeremy Irons is in a great movie called Dead Ringers (1988), a top-tier David Cronenberg that is particularly visceral if you're watching it as a woman The fourth Die Hard is fun and dumb, so have fun with it; the fifth is a crime, genuinely. You're a grown up so you can do what you like but I would stay away from it And for my money the first four Alien films are all great in different ways - 3 admittedly the least, but they're all worthwhile

John McLean teams up with Justin Long in the fourth one. It’s my fav action movie of all time.

Now you might have to do Die Hard IV too

When Bruce Willis is wearing the sign in the beginning of the movie. There was no writing on the board. They computer generated the writing on the board.

how is it that i can precisely place that thumbnail expression with the moment in the movie even before watching....

Kaiielle the reason why the female bad guy didn't speak to about the whole movie what's because she's from California and didn't speak any German so they made her a mute

I recommend you watch all 5 die hard movies, I personally enjoyed all 5 of them

greene also wrote some good books

As much as I love this movie, why didn't John show Zeus the safety on the gun while showing him how to use it? and then there is the obvious demonstration in the Captains office where Charlie showed that the bombs are harmless until the two liquids are mixed so just punch a hole in one of the containers and drain it so that they cant mix 🤷🖖 Graham Greene another great Canadian actor from Ohsweken, Ontario.❤ 🇨🇦
