Die Hard (1, 2, 3, 4)

Pure action, fun, and satisfying.
Die Hard 1 and 4 are particularly great. These are the kinds of movies you can rely on if you want a movie that is full of action. Lots of great lines, explosions, gun fights.

Lots of dead bad guys, a fair bit of blood, and swearing (that fits the situation, not just swearing to make it over the top).
Not suitable for kids, but teens and adults will enjoy.

Year: 1988, 1990, 1994, 2007
