The film explain how McClane and his wife decide to go and have fun with their friends at a party and how the party goers are take as hostages by some terrorists who came to break into their house. In the process of doing so, some of the terrorists decide to go around into the house to see if they can catch up with McClane but he does not turn up and he starts killing them one by one and this annoys them to the point of them kidnapping his wife.
The communication between the viewer and the actor is like connecting people in the virtual world and real life thus the viewers tend to imagine that everything in the virtual world can be similar in real life. As far as the life of a real detective is concerned, the first episode of Die Hard was a success because it portrayed what can be and what happens in the real world as far as detectives are concerned. The film is a very good example of the political instability that exists in most parts of the world today. The director of the movie brings out the idea of terrorists from Germany attacking people in Loss Angeles. The creativity by the director of the film is very convincing because that is what people relate to when they compare the movie with relation to life situations since insecurity is all over the world. There are many messages that the director of Die Hard was passing across and one of these reasons was to convince the viewers that political instability and insecurity happens everywhere in the world even in America. This idea was very brilliant because in the previous years most people used to talk of America with a lot of praises by claiming how wonderful the place making it look more secure than other parts of the world.
No new story has been incorporated in the second episode of Die Hard and this is what makes critics to claim that it has made it to be worn out. It does not come out in a more convincing way because the reviews that were made on it claims that it was not given more attention as compared to the previous since the whole scenario was not giving any new meaning to the story since it was still the same. The expectations of the viewers was not really met by the second production of the series of Die Hard because people expected it to be more captivating as compared to the previous one since the summers of the 1990’s were just surrounded by these great movies.
According to the standards of that time, Die Hard was a movie that really taught people on issues related to political stability and security which was very good. In the modern world security and political stability has become a global concern because there is no part of the world that is considered to be safe and secure thus the message that was being addressed are relevant and have been for a long time now.
