Tin,

The problem with the original is that Willem Dafoe is a lousy bad guy. He's not sympathetic, charming, nor cool. The other issue is that Kirsten Dunst is a terrible actress.

Alfred Molina is a good guy, who loses control due to a lack of humility.

Alan Rickman was incredible in "Die Hard". Bruce Willis' lines are completely forgettable in comparison. The manner in which Hans Gruber takes control, loses control, gets it back, and proves to be a coward was the best part of the film.

I always root for the bad guy with minor exceptions.
