Review of Die Hard 2 (1990) by Natalie M — 30 Mar 2014
How can the same film look so dated now? The answer is it was made in 1990!
Mobile phones that are bricks. Airline names such as Windsor and jokes aimed at British Rail.
Bruce Willis returns as New York Lieutenant John McClane battling terrorists at Washington Dulles Airport while his screen wife Holly played by Bonnie Bedelia is a passenger on a circling plane running short of fuel.
Bedelia hasn't been in the subsequent several films in the franchise.
The film was made just prior to the advent of CGI. Hell the only computers on show look like Amstrads!
The annoying Dick Thornberg journalist character from Die Hard returns as a fellow passenger on Holly's plane.
Does anybody else think he resembles Piers Morgan?
Willis/McClane himself comment's on the events he finds himself in resembling Die Hard. So it goes.
