If you loved Speed, try Die Hard
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Action / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Speed, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Die Hard is
Los Angeles, Christmas Eve, elevator music. A high-rise office party turns sour, a group of armed men seize control, and one cop is left outside their trap. This is the action film that established the template for a generation of solo-hero thrillers.
