Don't Die Too Hard! (Original Title: La Tour Montparnasse Infernale) is a 2001 French comedy movie, a slapstick parody of the original Die Hard directed by Charles Nemes. Eric (Eric Judor) and Ramzy (Ramzy Bédia) are two dim-witted window washers at the Montparnasse skyscraper in Paris. Working late one night, the pair witness a gang of terrorists seize the building and take its occupants hostage, including the beautiful executive Marie-Joelle, the object of Eric's infatuation (whose real name is Stéphanie and whom also despises Eric). Eric and Ramzy (reluctantly) jump into action to save the day.
