It's funny reviewing such an iconic older film. I must admit I've seen die hard before but somehow never got around to seeing again... until now. Trying to start leaving reviews again and what can I say? It's great! Flawless in fact. The perfect action film. A push back against the muscle bound maschismo of the era, John McClain is the every man, you, me, anyone, caught in a bad situation. Perfect balance of humour, action, drama. The characters are, well iconic, perfect casting.
There is not much more to say that hasn't been said but the biggest compliment is, this film, unlike its counterparts of the day, has not aged. Die Hard is ageless... Die Hard will be immortal.

An interesting and surprisingly enjoyable take on the troubles. For those (like me) who don't know much about that era and are curious about how complex it was, this film really adds to it.
It basically and quite competently focuses, not on Northern Ireland but a small terrorist cell in the south, in Dublin and delves into the extraordinary and ordinary of their lives.
Low budget limits its scope but it certainly makes up for it in story, characters and actor performances.
If into well acted and directed indie films with a real grit and rawness, I would thoroughly recommend. Even found myself googling The Troubles afterwards to help illuminate the bigger world in which the film exist.
