This movie wanted to compete with Die Hard, but he has hit the sliders too far

John Macternan’s Crystal Trap is one of the most copied action films in the history of cinema. One of these “decals” was the failure at the American box office. She tried to use the recipe in the letter, but she missed the ingredient “key”.

What is “heavy death”?

Put on the little girl from the fire, Darren McCord is now working on a fire safety at the hockey stadium. Fifty minutes before the match, he will take his children, command investment in the arena and bring the tribune members to the Grandstand against the ransom request, as well as Emily, Daren’s daughter. McCord will try to release the hostages and his son.

Sudden death is what Americans call “hard -to -do”, these films inspired by a crystalline trap, where Bruce Willis faces terrorists in the building, including numerous. Train), the list is long …

At a sudden death, Jean-Claude Van Dami performs the archetype “Die-Hardesque”, a person who has unwanted abilities that turns out to be a fight against terrorists at the stadium. We find the unit of place and time jewelry for this sub-janter, as the hostage must be resolved the same evening.

Directed by Peter Hyams and actress Jean-Claude Van Dama has just worked on Timecop, shot a year before, and as a previous title, a sudden dead, despite some of its weaknesses.

According to Alan Rickman’s interpretation of Die Hard, Hans Grbery has been replaced by an unnamed criminal, performed by Power Boute (lists it in the credits as Joshua Foss), but as in the film with Bruce Will, this leader of the bad guys is especially tasty. McCord sang him: “I always wanted to sell my son.”

Where is the sudden death breakdown?

In the end, what is less work is that Van Dama, unlike Bruce Willis, is not a trusted threat. Van Damam is Van Rais and we know that he has everything you need to get bad guys from the stadium. We do not believe in seconds that he is not going to escape him, unlike John McCleen, who was sweating blood and water to achieve his task.

According to this, let’s not use our pleasure, because the unexpected death “performs the job” with a marked but trusted entertainment offer (at least until the scenes of Van Dam’s trapezoid). If the film never grows Die Hard – just like most who tried to reproduce his recipe, sudden death is not really the worst of his copy.

However, the American community rejects a film planted in cash registers. Fortunately, the international community is more forgiving and enables sudden death to be successful.

The film will continue in 2020, suddenly 2 died, it will make a remake without the first characters, and is more focused on comedy, based on one of the scenarios that has been rejected by the first film.
