“Say hello to your brother.” I just finished Die Hard with a Vengeance (🌟🌟🌟🌟) for the first time in my life & I’m ready to run through a brick fucking wall. I have just two words for you: Bruce Willis. Holy mother of God this man is so charismatic in this film. But obviously, before going further, I want to also address the elephant in the room which is that yes, it’s taken me an embarrassing amount of time to watch this film. If you’re here to slander me for waiting until 2025 to watch Die Hard with a Vengeance, please don’t hesitate. I deserve it. What the hell was I thinking waiting so long to watch this action masterpiece???
Die Hard with a Vengeance is the third installment in the Die Hard series. I’ve seen the two films that came before this & I’ve seen the two films that came after this. But I had never actually sat down to watch Die Hard with a Vengeance. In the third installment of the franchise, John is now broke, jobless, divorced, and drunk as hell living in NYC. John gets the call back to the force when some douchebag who calls himself “Simon” (Jeremy Irons) insists on speaking with McClane, leading to a cat & mouse game between the two that also involves Zeus Carver (Samuel L. Jackson), an innocent but hilarious bystander who joins McClane for the ride- willing or unwillingly.
I’m not sure what it is. Maybe it’s the fact so many recent action films have felt so utterly fake (AI, CGI, green screen, sound stage, etc). Or maybe it’s the fact that so many action stars feel so utterly manufactured by some studio or PR firm. Or maybe it’s the fact that this film is just that damn good. But the quality of this movie left me in total shock. I just can’t believe how good the filmmaking was here- the cinematography, the on-location shooting, and every last action set-piece. If I’m being honest, I was anticipating a way shittier film. But this movie gets the big & little things right.
One big thing this film gets right is New York City. You feel the blood pumping through New York City from the moment this film starts to the moment it ends. It’s impossible to watch this film without recognizing how much energy there was in pre-9/11 New York City. If there’s anything “dated” about this movie, it’s not the technical components of the film (those all hold up exceptionally well), but rather it’s the idea that so many of the explosives or bombs that are set off throughout this film probably wouldn’t have happened after 9/11. There’s just a different feeling to the city in 1995 & this film captures that feeling perfectly.
But man, I think the most memorable thing about this film is the performance from its trio of leading actors: Irons, Jackson & Willis. Every last decision Jeremy Irons makes in this film is interesting. From his walk, his talk, the way he dresses, his goofy-ass bleached hair- hell, even his glasses. It’s because Irons is so self-aware of what he is doing & what he is making. He knows the film that he’s starring in & he nails this performance. To watch this film is to learn more about Jeremy Irons’ immense talent. With that all said- this film belongs to Bruce Willis. The charisma. The timing. The “I don’t give a shit, get out of my way” attitude. Above all, Willis is extremely relatable in this movie. He feels like one of us. Which is paradoxical when you consider it. Willis feels so relatable in this film yet somehow does things that none of us could ever do. It’s why he was such a special actor. And it’s why this is such a special performance.
I’m an absolute idiot for taking this long to see this film.
