I thought the title and narrative of *Die Hard* is a bit overdramatic, considering that Jesus dies within a few hours of his crucifixion. Certainly not the worst death-by-torture in human history.
Obviously, he doesn’t stay dead, but the movie makes a lot of hay about the cruel and unusual circumstances of his death, which in my opinion distracts from the main point. It’s like the director couldn’t decide whether Jesus’ death is supposed to be super special in itself, and whether that’s somehow relevant to his resurrection.
