Chinese Die Hard? **SPOILERS**
I just watched this film last night and it reminded me of a poor Die Hard clone. Was I the only one to notice this? My reasons?
1) Die Hard - Terrorists take over a tall building to get to vault
2) Meltdown - Terrorists take over a tall building to get to jewels
1) Die Hard - Willis fires machine gun at cop car as he reverses away
2) Meltdown - Terrorist fires machine gun at car as Jet reverses away
1) Die Hard - Black guy hired to hack vault codes
2) Meltdown - Black guy hired to hack jewel case codes
Incidentally that made no sense because they were surrounded by cops who knew what they were up to. So why bother hacking when they could have just smashed the glass cases and took the jewels?
1) Die Hard - Terrorists ask for helicopter to getaway
2) Meltdown - Terrorists ask for helicopter to getaway
1) Die Hard - Prisoner release demands are made as a decoy
2) Meltdown - Helicopter route is made as a decoy
1) Die Hard - Bruce Willis tells cop over radio to tell his wife he loves her in case he doesn't make it.
2) Meltdown - Cop tells Jet Li in car to give something to his girlfriend in case he doesn't make it.
All it needed was Jet in a white vest and the clone would be complete :P
