Die Hard (1988)
New York City cop John Mclane is vacationing over the holidays to see his wife and spend time with his family.
As he's enjoying his vacation a group of terrorists take over the 30 story high-rise and declare war. Tired and trapped, he is the only hope for his estranged wife and the other
hostages who are being held by Hans Gruber. His only support is officer Powell an officer that is
first on the scene. With only a handgun and what he gets from the terrorists he launches his own one man war with the terrorists. Bleeding and bruised he attacks,
disappears and reappears to attack again. It's only a matter of time before Mclane makes the terrorist his prey
