The Rock (1996)
The safety of San Francisco hangs in the balance when General Francis X. Hummel and his renegade squad of US Marines take over the abandoned Alcatraz prison and threaten to launch a poison gas attack on the city if their demands are not met. The FBI's response is to call in Stanley Goodspeed, a nerdy weapons expert, and John Patrick Mason, a former SAS man who has been in jail for the last 30 years, and send them together into the prison complex. Can this unlikely pairing prevent mass murder?
Armageddon (1998)

Con Air (1997)
Former Army Ranger Cameron Poe is returning home on parole to his wife and child after serving eight years for manslaughter.

Once in the air the plane is hijacked by convict Cyrus 'The Virus' Grissom, who gets rid of the crew of prison guards at the first scheduled stop, picking up more convicts as he does so. But US Marshal Vince Larkin is already on his trail. Poe does his best to stop Grissom from escaping with the group of convicts, and just to complicate matters further his diabetic cellmate reveals that he will die if he does not receive his next
insulin injection within two hours.

From the blockbuster-making team who produced and directed PEARL HARBOR and THE ROCK (Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay) comes the biggest movie of 1998 -- ARMAGEDDON!
Starring the explosive talents of Bruce Willis, Academy Award-winners Ben Affleck and Billy Bob Thornton, Liv Tyler, Steve Buscemi, and Will Patton, ARMAGEDDON is a meteor storm of action-adventure moviemaking that has you on the edge of your seat forgetting to breathe!
When NASA's executive director, Dan Truman realizes the Earth has 18 days before it's obliterated by a meteor the size of Texas, he has only one option -- land a ragtag team of roughneck oil drillers on the asteroid and drop a nuclear warhead into its core. Spectacular special effects, laugh-out-loud humor, great characters, riveting storytelling, and heartfelt emotion make ARMAGEDDON an exhilarating thrill ride you'll want to experience like there's no tomorrow.
The third film in the 'Die Hard' series sees Bruce Willis return

McClane. This time round, McClane becomes involved in a twisted
game of Simon Says when an evil terrorist (Jeremy Irons) sends him
dashing all over the city in an effort to find a series of

ruse intended to provide cover for a billion dollar bank job.

McClane manages to evade capture, however, and sets out to rescue his wife and the other hostages.

John McClane is again set to meet up with Holly on Christmas Eve, this time at Dulles International Airport in Washington DC.

that Holly's plane lands safely.

intended to provide cover for a billion dollar bank job.

In transit, events overtake them as they witness a full-scale cyber attack on the country's infrastructure led by mystery man Thomas Gabriel (Timothy Olyphant), who plans to systematically shut down or
destroy the nation's major networks over three days. McClane and his hacker friend have to stop the mastermind before it's too late.
A Good Day to Die Hard (2013)
John McClane travels to Russia to help out his son Jack (Jai Courtney), who, unbeknownst to his father, is an undercover CIA operative trying to stop the theft of nuclear weapons.
