Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- A school is said to have a bomb in it and will explode. (Only very few children are frightened -- most don't know what is going on.)
- The main characters are at risk of being blown up several times, and mush save other from being injured. They are often under pressure to perform quickly.
- McClane fakes yawn to make Zeus feel ignored, when he is talking. It's just a gesture. He certainly didn't yawn, but the scene can still be a bit disturbing if you're sensitive to such content. He gets slapped by Zeus at the end, which may be satisfying for some.
- Much one on one violence, mainly with guns, otherwise, with fists & whatever people could grab to use as a weapon.
- A subway train blows up, causing it to turn sideways and slide across the train stop area, no one dies.
