Die Hard
A strong film that's strongest when the bracket is deepest. Die Hard at 60% across 25 matchups is already above average — and the late-round numbers push it higher. McTiernan built the action-movie template everyone else copies and nobody else has matched. Willis's bare feet, Rickman's precision, the Nakatomi tower as a vertical chess board — every element is so specifically engineered that voting against it means arguing against the architecture of the genre itself. Voters pick in 0.9s on average — well under the 3.5s platform norm.
Synopsis
NYPD cop John McClane's plan to reconcile with his estranged wife is thrown for a serious loop when, minutes after he arrives at her office's Christmas Party, the entire building is overtaken by a group of terrorists. With little help from the LAPD, wisecracking McClane sets out to single-handedly rescue the hostages and bring the bad guys down.
Already strong at 43% in the opening round, stronger at 83% in the semis, and strongest at 80% in finals. Die Hard has a finishing gear most films on the platform can't access.
The extremes tell a clear story — 67% against Home Alone at one end, 33% against It's a Wonderful Life at the other.
