Since its release in 1988, Die Hard has left its fans wondering if it can be classed as a Christmas film – but one of its stars may have just put that very debate to rest.<\/p>\n
Over three decades since its release, Die Hard has been a big hit with people everywhere, with families all over the world tuning in to watch it during the Christmas period.<\/p>\n
The movie follows Bruce Willis’, who narrowly dodged his death while playing his character John McClane, a New York cop who goes to see his family on Christmas Eve – but when he gets to his wife’s office Christmas party, some bad guys take over the building leaving John to deal with all the commotion.<\/p>\n
Even though the movie doesn’t sound very festive, the storyline takes place on Christmas Eve, and that’s why some people think it’s a Christmas film.<\/p>\n
And Robert Davi, who plays FBI agent Big Johnson in the movie, says it “absolutely” is a Christmas movie.<\/p>\n
