Die Hard
- Awards: 4 Academy Award Nominations
While there are several Die Hard movies today, none will ever live up to the epicness of the first two. However, the first is truly the best of the bunch. Alan Rickman plays an incredible villain named Hans Gruber, who must be stopped by John McClane whose played by Bruce Willis. Of course, Willis was a comedic actor going into this movie so very few thought he’d be believable as an action star. Die Hard changed all of that for him, and it became one of the most notable classic movies of our generation. However, it is NOT a Christmas movie!
