However, McClane’s plans are thwarted when a group of terrorists take over the Nakatomi Plaza building and take the employees hostage.

3. Judge Dredd (2012)

He ends up pairing up with rookie Judge Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) to investigate a triple murder in a massive 200-story slum controlled by drug lord Ma-Ma (Lena Heidi). She doesn’t want to leave just yet, and our judges find themselves trapped, forced to fight their way through wave after wave of armed criminals to get to Ma-Ma.
Dredd is unwaveringly violent and wastes no time, plunging headlong into a grimy and chaotic slum neighborhood where Ma-Ma proves to be a formidable and insidious foe. Director Pete Travis’ film is particularly unforgettable thanks to its use of slow motion to emphasize the ultra-violent moments, as the characters use a drug called “Slo-Mo” that makes time seem to move at a slower speed than usual.
