Die Hard: With a Vengeance
New York detective John McClane is back and kicking bad-guy butt in the third installment of this action-packed series, which finds him teaming with civilian Zeus Carver to prevent the loss of innocent lives. McClane thought he'd seen it all, until a genius named Simon engages McClane, his new "partner" -- and his beloved city -- in a deadly game that demands their concentration.
Critics Sentiment
McClane and Zeus race through Central Park in taxi
McClane deduces Simon's location from aspirin bottle
The film drops significantly from the spectacular Central Park chase to the contrived aspirin bottle clue that critics found poorly executed.
Die Hard: With a Vengeance maintains strong audience approval through most of its runtime, powered by excellent chemistry between Willis and Jackson and McTiernan's kinetic direction. The film peaks during its spectacular action sequences, particularly the Central Park taxi chase, but suffers from plot contrivances in the final act that critics found less satisfying than the clever setup.
