-Jeremy
Irons
Superhero
cop
John
McClane
(Bruce
Willis)
returns
in
DIE
HARD
WITH
A
VENGEANCE.
Freshly
expelled
from
the
NYPD,
McClane
encounters
a
number
of
threatening
phone
calls
from
a
terrorist
calling
himself
Simon
(Jeremy
Irons).
Simon
tests
McClane’s
wits,
and
allows
him
the
chance
to
stop
each
bomb
by
solving
a
riddle.
In
addition
to
using
his
previously
learned
anti-terrorism
tactics
(DIE
HARD,
DIE
HARD
2),
McClane
enlists
an
angry
store
clerk,
Zeus
(Samuel
L.
Jackson)
to
decipher
Simon’s
tricky
enigmas.
DIE
HARD
WITH
A
VENGEANCE
finds
director
John
McTiernan
returning
to
the
creative
helm
of
the
series
he
began
in
1987
(Renny
Harlin
directed
DIE
HARD
2).
For
the
third
film
in
the
detonative
series,
McTiernan
creates
a
story
line
which
floats
from
psycho
terror
to
sonic
action
to
interracial
comedy
relief.
The
acting
is
something
to
be
marveled
at
as
well.
Bruce
Willis
miraculously
evokes
sympathy
whilst
playing
the
angry
police
man
and
Jeremy
Irons’
performance
as
the
villainous
Simon
is
reminiscent
of
an
Eastern
European
James
Bond
megalomaniac.
Samuel
L.
Jackson’s
is
also
worth
mentioning
as
he
gives
an
angry
discourse
in
racism
and
then
pops
off
one
liners,
both
ice
cold
and
slick.
