Die Hard With a Vengeance Reviews
There are times we like this one more than the original.
| Nov 16, 2024
Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson are a fantastic double act and only add to the fun action scenes. Easily the second best Die Hard film and one of the best action films full stop.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Apr 29, 2024
Whereas Die Hard 2 downgraded Bruce Willis’ McClane to your average invincible superhero, all too common in action flicks, this 1995 release returns humanity to the character.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jan 6, 2024
If you are an action fan you will love Die Hard With A Vengeance. All you need is a strong stomach and a penchant for masochism. If you can endure the pain threshhold, you won't mind the glaring plot inconsistencies, woeful stereotyping and banal story.

Doesn't play as well as it does as a lone wolf vehicle.
| Original Score: C+ | Nov 26, 2021
...this second sequel certainly has a lot to offer, as long as coherence isn't your bag...
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 19, 2021
Samuel L. Jackson ensures that Bruce Willis' third stint as the ragged detective John McClane is a triumphant one.
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 7, 2021
Fast-paced, regularly thrilling, and with a greater serving of wisecracks.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Sep 11, 2020
Irons is fabulous...
| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 28, 2020
Maybe not movie bliss, as the original, unexpected "Die Hard" was, but semi-bliss, for sure. By all means go (as if I needed to tell you).
| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 14, 2020
A marked come-down from the excellence of Die Hards 1 and 2, but still an effective instalment for the franchise.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 14, 2020
It's bigger, bolder, darker, but still retains the same sense of desperation, humor, and intensity of the first movie.
| Original Score: A- | Jun 11, 2020
A noisy and authentic action spectacle. [Full Review in Spanish]

Die Hard: With a Vengeance follows traditional Hollywood sequel rules, but does so with enough impudence so as to not feel superfluous. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 11, 2020
McTiernan saves the day by turning the film into a pure Mcguffin. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Jun 11, 2020
A highly entertaining sequel that almost surpasses the iconic first film. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 11, 2020
For fans who like the first two, it's the last step before the new millennium had its influence. For those who lament where the franchise went, perhaps this is where it all started unraveling.

Die Hard With A Vengeance is better than Die Hard 2, but not as good as the peerless original.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 2, 2019
The first 40 minutes of the movie contain the most giddy and intoxicating action scenes you'll find in any cinema this summer.

This third installment is so loud, fast and full of chases that watching it is like being abandoned on a set of roller coaster tracks. You're definitely not bored, but you're not necessarily pleased.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 2, 2019
