    30 years later and Die Hard is still a masterpiece,
    but Speed is aging badly
    .
    How so?

      Hard to explain πŸ™‚
      I recently saw it again for the first time in years, and, i don't know, it didn't feel right. It really felt like a lame 90's action movie.
      Die Hard on the other hand, still feels like it could have been made today.
      Just my opinion of course.
      I'm just on my way up to Clavius.

            Since I think they both delivered in every way they wanted to (True Lies is a great mix of action and comedy, while Speed is straight up action), I'm going to say they're about equal. However, I personally prefer Speed. True Lies, as big of a movie as it is, doesn't quite thrill me like Speed does every time I watch it. Dated? Sure, True Lies' smooth direction and performances hold up better, but other than that Speed remains a top tier action movie.

              I think they both stand up pretty well. True Lies is still pretty unique after all these years, with it's rather unique blend of equal parts full on action film with zany rom-com.

                Both are great films but True Lies wins. Speed is awesome though too

                      I have no desire to ever try speed so I would take the true lies told from the wife.

                        Gotta go with Speed. Better villain, great concept, more suspense, takes itself somewhat seriously
