The movie that launched a lucrative franchise, spawned numerous rip-offs, and made Bruce Willis an international star, Die Hard is all about John McClane (Willis). He's a New York cop who flies to Los Angeles on Christmas Eve to spend the holidays with his kids and estranged wife (Bonnie Bedelia). He arrives at his wife's company party at the 40-story Nakatomi Tower, but the two have a fight in her office and McClane finds himself momentarily alone. Minutes later, German terrorists, led by Hans (Alan Rickman) and planning to steal $600 million in bonds from the building's vaults, storm in, take everyone hostage, and make their demands. The FBI is called in, but only one man is calling the shots — the reluctant, amusingly profane McClane, who responds like an action hero should.
