Die Hard 2: Die Harder

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

Die Hard 2: Die Harder, the second Die Hard movie, was released in Wednesday, July 4, 1990 and starred Bruce Willis as cop John McClane. McClane is waiting for his wife to land at Washington's Dulles Airport when terrorists take over. He must stop the terrorists before his wife's plane, circling the airport, crashes.

The movie is based on a novel by Walter Wager, entitled 58 minutes. The novel has the same premise: a cop must stop terrorists who take an airport hostage while his wife circles overhead. He has 58 minutes to do so before his wife's plane crashes.

Die Hard 2 was the first movie to have a digitally-manipulated matte painting, for the very last scene which pulled back from a runway.

Die Hard 2 was followed by Die Hard: With a Vengeance in 1995.
