Skyscraper (1996 Video)
3/10
She's no action star

Warning: Spoilers
SKYSCRAPER is the cheesiest, most laughable DIE HARD rip-off imaginable, and that comes from somebody who last week watched DEMOLITION HIGH, the Corey Haim-starring DIE HARD in a school movie. This one's set in a tower block taken over by terrorists, where the unlikely Anna Nicole Smith plays a helicopter pilot (!) who takes the fight to the bad guys, one at a time. Smith turns out to be a remarkably wooden actress who nevertheless strips down for no less than three sex scenes to show off her scarred, surgically-enhanced assets. The rest is a mish-mash of bad dialogue, worse acting, and silly stunt sequences copied from DIE HARD (including a rerun of the Bruce Willis/fire hose bit). The director is obsessed with people falling from the building. Some of the fight scenes are quite fun, as it turns out, but overall the quality of this one is very, very bad.
