Why watch this film?
"Die Hard" is a quintessential classic of 1980s cinema and action films, responsible for shaping the taste of many genre fans and putting Bruce Willis on the list of action heroes. The premise is one of the most interesting, which would be recycled in many films afterwards: a New York policeman named John McClane (Willis) goes to visit his wife's company in Los Angeles during the company's Christmas party, which is headquartered at Nakatomi Plaza - in the real world, the headquarters of 20th Century Fox, still under construction at the time. There he finds himself confronted with a group of terrorists (led by Alan Rickman in a great performance), who close the building. Now it is up to the army of one man alone (and barefoot) to face the bandits - which turns into an epic adventure. With great scenes and iconic phrases ("Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!" entered the lexicon of the seventh art), "Die Hard" is, since 1988, the perfect companion for a nice popcorn for a movie night at home - and, for many, one of the best Christmas movies ever made, although that was never exactly the original goal.

Die Hard: With a Vengeance
The third installment of the successful action saga "Die Hard" is the one most closely related to the story of the first, and builds on everything that was liked in the two previous installments: a tense plot, with plenty of explosions and humor to accompany it. It's not the most original thing in the world, but "Die Hard 3: Vengeance" is a must-see if you're a fan of the saga. And obviously, it's always a pleasure to see Samuel L. Jackson and his great sense of humor.
Predator
Predator, directed by John McTiernan, is a classic action-adventure film that still holds up today. The movie follows a team of commandos on a mission in a Central American jungle who find themselves hunted by an extraterrestrial warrior. The film is part sci-fi, part horror, and part action, all muscle. The cast, led by Arnold Schwarzenegger, is fantastic and delivers some memorable one-liners. The special effects are impressive for the time, and the creature design is iconic. The film's pacing is excellent, and the tension builds to an exciting climax. Predator is a must-see for fans of the action genre and is a testament to the talent of John McTiernan. Overall, Predator is a thrilling and entertaining film that has stood the test of time.
Action
The Fall Guy
The Fall Guy is one of those films that seem designed to have it all and thus please the broadest audience possible. Based on the 1980s series of the same name and directed by David Leitch (former stunt double and now director of films like Bullet Train and Deadpool 2), the movie follows Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling), a down-on-his-luck stunt double who must investigate the mysterious disappearance of actor Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), as this would ruin the first movie of his beloved, filmmaker Jody (Emily Blunt). And the major problem with this movie is that it tries to be everything: romantic comedy, action comedy, Hollywood satire, crime mystery, and more, hampered by the magnitude of its own ambitions, as well as an overloaded and unclear script. You can enjoy it as an insight into the world behind action cinema, and for the charisma of Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.
Money
In this high-stakes action thriller, two pharmaceutical executives are about to get away with stealing $5 million until an uninvited houseguest derails their plans and holds them hostage during an all-night standoff. Featuring a powerful ensemble cast, including Jesse Williams, Kellan Lutz and Jess Weixler, MONEY is a chilling lesson in greed that will keep you guessing until the very end!
Deadpool & Wolverine
Wolverine is recovering from his injuries when he crosses paths with the loudmouth, Deadpool. They team up to defeat a common enemy.
