(18,912 posts)I know some might feel "Die Hard" is crap too, but I'm not one of them. I think it's a classic.
But ANYONE with Netflix knows that Willis is now in a "template"...I've seen at least SIX recent movies of his on Netflix in which he plays a retired CIA / FBI / whatever agent, and his son gets into some kind of fiasco, so he gets drawn into it...really, really, really the modern-era template for Willis.
I know some people don't like him because he's a Republican, but that aside, for the people who DO like "Die Hard," I'd be very interested to hear your take on his last "GREAT" movie. Or even "very good" movie.
I thought his appearances in the "Expendables" movies were fun, but he essentially did what Schwarzenegger did in those films...show up and "be himself" for a scene or two.
