Fortress - La fortezza

Bruce Willis is still a great actor, but there is only so much a great actor can do to save an inferior movie. Imdb rating of 3.2, that'll predict not the highest quality possible, to put it politely. Especially the supporting actors are way below average. The special effects tend to look somewhat cheap as well. Lack of suspense is another topic...

BUT...

At an (excrucially) important sidenote, let us not forget WHY we are watching Bruce Willis movies to begin with. We watch Bruce Willis movies because of DIE HARD (1988). THE ONE AND ONLY BIGGEST ACTION AMERICAN ACTION CLASSIC OF THE CENTURY.

This classic is still standing strong after more than 30 years. Millions of people still REwatch it during every Christmas holiday. Recently a petition was launched to rename Nakatomi Plaza into DIE HARD plaza.

A life time achievement award for Bruce Willis is in the making.

DIE HARD (1988) NEVER DIES but is still ALIVE AND KICKING IN 2022. Happy New Year!
