DIE HARD is widely considered one of the greatest action movies of all-time, but it's sequels have received a very mixed review....from great to....well less than great.
So today I'm going to rank all 5 Die Hard movies from the worst to the best!
** WHY A NEW DIE HARD RANKING **
I do have a previous Die Hard ranking on my channel. Previously I hadn't updated rankings without a new release, but I've been doing this long enough that some rankings got out dated because I changed. My analysis, standards, and editing have dramatically changed over the last 3 and a half years. So some of my old rankings are WAAAAAY too long, and others are WAAAAAY too short.
In the case of Die Hard, my previous ranking was UNDER 4 MINUTES! That's too short of a discussion for an iconic franchise. I also didn't rewatch each of the movies before doing the ranking. So it just wasn't up to my standards.
So since we're in quarantine, this seemed like a good time to start re-re-ranking some of my 2017 rankings
MOVIES TO RANK:
Die Hard | John McTiernan
Die Hard 2: Die Harder | Renny Harlin
Die Hard With a Vengeance | Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, and Jeremy Irons
Live Free or Die Hard | Justin Long, Timothy Olyphant, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead
A Good Day to Die Hard | Jai Courtney, John Moore

Will your remakes be better than Disney’s remakes, only time will tell 🤔🤔
Sean Chandler Talks About Can you please re-rank the Middle Earth Series as that was also a very short video.
@@evan9902 Ironically, a fan gave me the full 6 film set this month. SO this is VERY MUCH on my mind. I also don't make money on that video because of a copyright claim. So it's a PRIME candidate for re-ranking.
Other franchises possible to get an updated ranking sometime during quarantine: Back to the Future, Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, LOTR, Bourne Identity

I literally had no idea there was more than 1 Die Hard, wow
Not even a sequel cause I didn’t know there was a 4 and 5 and I now realize I was a better man not knowing they existed

1: Die Hard
2: Die Hard With A Vengeance
3: Live Free Or Die Hard
4: Die Hard 2: Die Harder
5: A Good Day To Die Hard
That could be my list. The first one is absolutely perfect. Die Hard With a Vengeance is really cool but not perfect. Live Free or Die Hard is for me on the same level as Die Hard With A Vengeance. Die Hard 2 was disappointing and A Good Day to Die Hard is bad. It fits more in The Expendables (which I really hate) than in the Die Hard Franchise.
Exactly
1. Die Hard

Have you ever watched Brooklyn 99? They have TONS of Die Hard Refrences, so If you haven't seen it, I think you would like it. Also, love your channel.

@@gvidovaldmanis6377 Aren't you the same guy who didn't respect my opinion when i chose mission impossible 1 over the sequels?
I love all 4 Die Hard movies. John Mcclane is one of the most relating fictional cops of all time. I love how much he's an asshole, a failure with his wife and sometimes he can't fix his own life, yet what keeps him important and motivates him to carry on fighting in life is his love for duty. He helps and saves people, he cares about people even though his doesn't know them personally. He puts himself on the line to save others while sacrificing his own life. That's the most ultimate love you can ever give to someone, soo much humanity and he's a funny man. Great character development with awesome action sequences makes it very fun to watch. Die hard is a real classic action movie and is the best Christmas movie of all time.
Did you see John McClane in National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1?

Die Hard 5 is the worst movie a saga have.Far more worst than a Pirate of Carribean 4 or Xmen Origins.
Loving the love for Die Hard 2 there, think people largely overlook this one for being too similar to the original, but I think it's a fantastic action movie.

Finally, somebody loves Die Hard 2! AMAZING MOVIE! I prefer the original but 2 comes close second!
@@cocobaba3704 POTC 4 is awesome and underrated!
Live Free Or Die Hard doesn’t get a lot of credit but it’s extremely underrated in my books and my second most watched in the series after the first.
Agreed, Die Hard 4 is underrated, it is a great movie.
Right! It's the only other one with the same heart as the first one!
I "believe" it, (that he would take those stupid risks, that he can push through and past everything, and that he finds a way to survive), BECAUSE he's doing it for someone he loves! The moment you take that out of it, not only do I just not buy it, I also have no emotional attachment to the character.
Not a big Bruce fan or fan of this series really. But I like 1 and live free the most honestly. Especially since I'm a fan of Justin long and Kevin Smith. I understand it's pg13 but live free is a great film imo. It's got a great cast. Timothy played a great villain too. But I'm more of a mission impossible guy. And Kevin Smith speaking about how Bruce is a dick in real life and basically dissed his die hard fans made me not care for him at all anymore.
A Good Day To Die Hard is so bad I don't even consider it cannon
Day 1 of asking Sean to rank the Shrek movies until he does it.
He did
@@oliverjasinski1829 thanks to me

5. Die hard 5
You know you should probably skip the last one.
Ps: *Die hard 3 is really underrated*
*If it wasn't for Die Hard, Bruce Willis would still be "Moonlighting" and still be trying to go out on a "Blind Date"!!*
Yeah, he went for the whole nine yards after this movie, huh?
I've always respected you. But I have a new found respect for you after hearing that you rewatched 'A Good Day To Die Hard' Those words have never been uttered before. You deserve an infinity stone or something after that.
I feel like die hard 4 is getting alot more love now then when it came out .
This is one of the best movie series reviews you’ve ever done!
Hi Sean! I just want to say is that I have the exact same ranking of the Die Hard films as you do! Great taste!

Hey sean just wanted to let you know your reviews are awesome, I watch a ton of movies based on your recommendations. Also diggin the beard man
Awesome! Thanks so much!
Fun fact: I’m the first person to comment this exact comment.
Die Hard 1 is good. That’s all I know
1. Die Hard (Tied for best action movie of all time for me, a great setting, great characters, and is a cinematic milestone)
2. Die Hard with a Vengeance (Such a good follow up to Die Hard, even though it is the third movie. Beyond that, Sam Jackson and Jeremy Irons are such great additions)
3. Die Hard 4.0 (Sure, John McClane is basically an action legend in this one, but it is a pretty badass action movie and so fun to watch)
4. Die Hard 2 (It's like an alternate Die Hard)
Um, I think that's it.
So great video as always man. But I just wanna say, right after you had said " you got John Mclain standing on the wing of a jet," I got an ad that started with "I'm here to prove to you...." and i wasnt exactly watching the screen at that moment, so I was just like "wait Sean whatre you doin man??" For a second
For me obviously the first Die Hard at 1) with 2, 3, and 4 I love them all and can’t decide on a specific order. I usually marathon all 4 of them in one night.
My favorite franchise of all time... except for 5. That one sucked

I always respect your rankings and opinions even if I don’t totally agree. I’ve watched these movies countless times (except part 5). Die Hard is my favorite movie and I agree 100 percent with every word you said. Love the channel.
Perfect analysis. I salute you sir.
Die hard with a vengeance, one of my favourite movies of all time
Live free or die hard is sooooo gooood. It introduced me to the character. The story is so big and for a movie that came out in 2007 it still measures up today. It is my favorite especially for the villain and Maggie q fighting Bruce Willis. Oh and and Justin Long is great as always

04. Die Harder - (8/10) The villain isn’t as good as the first film and it copies to much from the first film but this is still a really great movie.
03. Live Free - (9/10) Definitely over the top and very different to the original 3 movies but that doesn’t stop me from loving this movie to death.
02. With a Vengeance - (10/10) Probably just as good as the original
1. Die Hard - (10/10) The script, The characters, The action, The villain, Everything about this movie is perfect.

Also, I saw one your videos coming is Top 10 Movies Critics and Audience aren’t agreeing on and I thought of something that could be really interesting for you to talk about which would be : What’s better between a bad movie with good performances or a good movie with bad performances, I would love to know what’s your take if you’d rather choose a character over a storyline!
Thanks Sean, keep doing a great, one of the best RUclips Channels for this time stuck at home!
4.) Die Hard With A Vengeance
3.) Live Free or Die Hard
2.) Die Hard 2: Die Harder
1.) Die Hard
That is how I'd rank the *FOUR* Die Hard movies. It was hard since all *FOUR* Die Hard movies were so good. Even the worst one out of the *FOUR* is still like a 9/10.
Awesome ranking Sean! In mine, I'd switch 4 for 2 only for the fact that 2 is a hard R, and 4 kind of betrays the Die Hard adult action roots by being pg-13.
Not unless you watch the unrated cut of Live Free or Die Hard/Die Hard 4.0 on DVD, all the R-Rated glory is there FYI.
@@ConservativeCanadian57 I saw it. It's still not old school ruthless hardcore gritty violence and foul language like the first three.

@@SeanChandlerTalksAboutok I got it. I didn't search hard enough my bad.
I adore action movies where the protagonist needs to figure out everything and act carefully before he does anything.

I never saw 5. 4 was decent. Not as good as the others but still entertaining. 1 and 3 are very close and it may be nostalgia talking as I haven't seen 3 in quite awhile, but I'm giving it the edge. I remember it so fondly from my childhood. It may have been the first I saw but it's at least the one I remember most. I've seen 1 more recently in some recent Christmases and I have a bigger appreciate for it now, but I still give the edge to 3. The buddy act is really good.
(it's been awhile since I've seen 2 and 4 as well, so it's possible they could flip on a rewatch)
White House Down should have been Die Hard 5... it would have worked well with a little reworking. Have John's son be Tatum's character.
Sean I Agree Die Hard 4 is the Most Underrated Films In The franchise, Great Action, Great Script, And Die Hard 4 was actually the first Die Hard film I saw when I was 5 years old

Me too. When I was little we had the first 4 on blu ray. I asked him why we didn’t have the 5th one. I later rented it. Big mistake.
