Terry Gilliam ’s 1985 cultus classicBrazilis a terrifically dark examination of bureaucracy in a brutally tyrannous hereafter . But its backdrop — the spark advance - up to Christmas — makes it one of the best Christmas movies of all time . Unlike Die Hard . Which is abullshitchoice for a favorite Christmas movie .
Remember when setting of religious devotion to Christmas consumerism were a star sign that your movie take place in a hellish dystopia ? You ’d recall if you saw Brazil , which is the best Christmas picture show ever made . Contrast that with Die Hard , which is n’t .
I experience what some of you are thinking right now : But Die Hard is the beneficial because it has all that action andconfusing accentsand it mentions Christmas a couple of meter ! You would be , of course , wrong . Die Hard is dense . Die Hard is a dumb waste material of sentence that has no business being call off a great motion-picture show , rent alone a peachy Christmas movie .
If Die Hard is such a slap-up Christmas movie then how fare nobody ’s ever heard of it ? cause you think .
