Jackson, and features Graham Greene, Colleen Camp, Larry Bryggman, Sam Phillips and Tony Halme.
In the film, NYPD Lieutenant John McClane is embroiled in a plot by a mysterious terrorist calling himself "Simon" (Irons), who extorts the city of New York by threatening to detonate several bombs unless McClane solves a series of games scattered across the city.
