Actually, Hans did NOT make a mistake when he gave John the fake name. Hans said he was "Bill Clay." The directory on the wall listed "Wm Clay." "Wm" is a rarely-used abbreviation for "William" -- and Bill is a nickname for William. So Hans was VERY slick with the fake name. It's just that John was smart enough to not trust a stranger -- no matter what.

I love the practical special effects they don't use anymore. My two favorite trivia facts from this film: Willis did a lot of his own stunts and cut his foot in the stunt where he crashed through the window, so in the final scenes inside he was limping and wincing from his own cut foot. Second, usually when they drop people out of a building they use a dummy. This production company figured out a way to drop a live stuntman safely, so yes, he was flailing his arms realistically as he fell. He was dropped from too high to use an air cushion, so they used a wire harness to swing him away from the building, right as he is lost from sight.

One of Alan Rickman's conditions for starring in this movie, was that all characters of color, good or villanous, should be portrayed as interesting and intelligent people. The late great Alan Rickman was "woke" long before that was even a word. The term "woke", as you all know or should know, was just invented to make a common sense of respect, courtesy and dignity appear suspicious, by those who possess none of those things.

McClain could not shoot Hans again at he end because he only had 2 bullets left and he used them on Hans and his fellow thief.

Alan Rickman has a very distinctive voice. I'm guessing that's how John knew it was Hans. Re: the falling scene, Rickman did the stunt himself, falling about 30 ft. He was told he would be dropped on the count of 3 but they triggered it a second early to "surprise" him. So his expression in that shot is not really acting at all.

It is not "so damn dumb" that she is saying (very low) that it is John. The only one close to her is Ellis who already knows John is in the building and knows he wouldn't leave his wife there after an attack. What happened was not her fault. But you guys keep going on and on about it. It's clear you don't like the movie. But if you want people to watch your reaction videos, don't post reaction videos of movies you don't like. You will get a lot less subscribers. Most people watch reaction videos of movies they gave already seen a lot of times because they love the movie.
