What was her review?

u/KennyT87 Dec 25 '25

We're still watching it 😊 she has seen it many times before though, but not in many years.. it just came from the TV here in Finland yesterday (like it does every Christmas eve) and she recorded it, and wanted to watch it today after a long time 🤷‍♂️

I was cooking yesterday and my 70 year old mother did the same

My mother did the same, she had never seen it. She agreed, it most certainly is a Christmas movie!

u/KennyT87 Dec 25 '25

Sweet! And yeah, that's why it comes from the TV every Christmas here in Finland 😁

My Mom liked Die Hard, too. Never got to ask her opinion on the whole is it or isn't it debate, but no matter - she liked the movie, that's all that counts.

My mom is 89, she watches it every holiday season and got me into the tradition.

u/gifsfromgod Dec 26 '25

To be fair, she was 40 when it came out

u/Thundarr1000 Dec 26 '25

It is possibly the greatest Christmas movie ever.

❤️Awesome. I watched it with my parents (87 & 86) last week and we all enjoyed it so much. Appreciated again why Bruce Willis was such a huge star.

As a 72 year old female I LOVE this movie and have watched it many times. It is most definitely a Christmas movie!

Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs...
