New Lenox AMC Movie Times

Bruce Willis is back with the fifth in the Die Hard series. "A Good Day to Die Hard" in 3D again features the savvy New York cop, but this time the kids are all grown up. The film is set in Moscow, and Willis' character, John McClane, discovers that his son is a well-trained CIA agent. Together, they make for an unstoppable pair of crime fighters.      

For those who relish in the fast-action, shoot em up "Die Hard," released in 1988, stop by Mokena Video, 11225 Front St. You can rent the movie for three days.
