INTRODUCTION
MOVIE TITLE: A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD
SYNOPSIS:

In Moscow, a high ranking but corrupt Russian official named by Victor Chagarin (Sergei Kolesnikov) planned on incriminating a political and government whistleblower, Yuri Komarov (Sebastian Koch) without even taking him for justice when he refused to cooperate and hand over a confidential file that was believed to have convicting evidence against Chagarin. While in another situation, Jack McClane (Jai Courtney) was arrested under assassination assault, however he agreed to testify against Komarov for the sake of shorter sentence.
John McClane (Bruce Willis) found that his son whom he have not spoken for years has been arrested in Russia for killing people. The moment when John arrived and approached the courthouse, Jack and Komarov were currently on hold for trial, that was when an explosion occurred orchestrated by Chagarin and his men. During that chaotic situation, Jack broke free along with Komarov. John finally confronted Jack but however their dispute was cut short due to the chase on the streets of Moscow led by Chagarin’s man, Alik (Radivoje Bukvi). Fortunately, John, Jack and Komarov managed to escape themselves.

When they were in the safe house, John discovered that his son has been a CIA officer in an undercover mission for the past years. Meanwhile, Jack’s partner named Collins (Cole Hauser), asked for the file’s location from Komarov so that CIA team could be able to bring Chagarin down. Too bad that Collins was soon shot by Chagarin’s men and died, as John, Jack and Komarov ran out from the house and survived subsequent heavy loaded gunfire.
The trio then went their way to an abandoned hotel that was under construction to find the key to the vault where the secret file was kept. They met Komarov’s daughter , Irina (Yuliya Snigir) there, but Jack was being suspicious over her. His instinct about her was proven correct when Alik and his men barged in and tied up John and

    The film ‘JFK’, directed by Oliver Stone, explores the exploits of the heroic Jim Garrison and his controversial investigation into the assassination of the president John F. Kennedy in 1963. Oliver Stone’s film ‘JFK’ presents a particular view and interpretation of the circumstances surrounding the assassination. The film insinuates that there was a large conspiracy involving the CIA, FBI, the military-industrial complex, anti-Castro Cubans, the Dallas Police and the mafia. The film provides limited usefulness to a historian studying the assassination of the late President Kennedy.…

    The United States government should pay reparations to African Americans as a means of admitting their wrong-doing and making amends. The damages African Americans have sustained from White America's policy of slavery have been agonizing and inhumane. Therefore, I am in favor of reparations for African Americans. The effect of slavery has been an enduring issue within the African American community. Many of us are cognizant of the harm racism brought to the African American race, conveyed through slavery, racial segregation and discrimination. African Americans suffered many atrocities, but the greatest damage done to them was the destruction of they're original identity. African Americans no longer have a native language or any African customs to connect them to Africa. Today, African Americans are connected together because they all share a common foundation-the horrendous experience of slavery-and the great effort to conquer its lingering result.(www.AcedemicLibrary.com)…

    The first article I read was called “Plutocrats Despising the Poor: An American Tradition.” A part of the article talks about how millionaires and billionaires are basically telling the middle class and poor should just suck it up and that the 99 percent should stop “envying” the rich and start “emulating” them. Also that we should be glad we don’t live in China or India where people are making 30,00 and in my opinion even people in America only make that much for example some teachers only make 40,000 a year and that’s with a four year degree. As quoted in the article “And most of all they should stop annoying their "betters" with demands for "handouts" like unemployment insurance, food stamps, and other "entitlements." They also talk about how we're forced to endure over the public airwaves the whining and moaning of billionaires and millionaires who believe working people are not bending at the knee to them enough or doing so without the level of devotion. In January Tom Perkins sent a letter into the wall street journal comparing working people’s concern about inequality to the Nazis singling out the Jews for persecution at the time of Kristallnacht, but later did he take back that statement but he did stay true to the message he was trying to send out although Sam Zell did agree with his statement and had defended Perkins. The second article is called “If Obama is such a socialist, then why are government jobs disappearing?” Throughout the past four years Obama has created roughly 8.5 million dollars yet well the labor market has turned around public employment has decreased. “For all the talk on the right about how President Obama is a closet socialist bent on ballooning the government, jobs at the state, local, and federal levels have steadily dried up since Obama took office.” So this leads to the question what is happening and why hasn’t Obama done anything to fix this issue at hand. The article also talks about how public sector employment has fallen…
