Die Hard 2: Die Harder. 1990.

John McClane is in Dulles Airport, Washington D.C. waiting for Holly to return home as rogue military seize control and rescue a drug lord from justice. In order to rescue the drug lord the terrorists have taken control of the airport.

Die Hard 2 makes Bruce Willis look better and better. The role of John McClane is one filled with the fight for right and to trying to stop the bad guys. This film has more freedom as it is held at an airport and McClane is all over the place and some tight spaces a swell and close encounter with some hand grenades.

William Sadler plays the Colonel of the military group hoping to rescue a Mexican Army General and drug lord looking for a new peaceful life except he meets McClane. Dennis Franz plays the Airport Police Captain Lorenzo who seems to follow his own judgement and no one else's. John Amos plays Grant who is tasked to deal with the situation.

Although the original is the best movie this is a worthy sequel that I still score very highly. Great plot, great action scenes and fight sequences and simply filled full of fun and some good laughs even with janitor Marv trying to negotiate a deal.
