I thought that the shootout between the G-men and the Italians at the end of Enemy of the State was good.

I also liked the scene from the Matrix when Keanu Reeves shoots the mini-gun out the door of the Huey.

Hard Boiled- almost the entire movie is a shootout.

The gun scene in The Horse Whisperer was pretty good too.

How about Desparado? I know it isn't the most realistic, but those gunfights were coreographed great...lots o' style (even though he was carrying Rugers)

I think that the final scenes from "Ride the High Country" were among the finest.  Randolph Scott & Joel MacCrea in the twilight of their
careers. How about Gary Cooper in "High Noon?"

I always liked[i] Born On The Fourth Of July.[/i] What it lacked in sheer firepower, it was well shot, showing the state of confusion and panic in a real shootout. When Tom Cruise,(Kovak) gets shot in the foot, and continues to return fire with his M-14, then his rifle jams, tries to clear it , yelling and swearing all the while- pretty convincing. The only fake part was the lack of recoil and muzzle climb.


[i]Saving Private Ryan.[/i]



[i]Apocalypse Now.[/i]


I guess these were more battle scenes, but classic none the less.

If you want to see a 1 1/2 hour-long shootout, "Mean Guns" is OK. Not realistic for sh*t, but they throw a BUNCH of lead in that one........

Way of the Gun was my favorite with Heat in a close second for realistic
For non-realistic I liked Matrix and Aliens.
Also, no one has mentioned Supercop with Jackie Chan.  At one point he fires an AR with a beta mag and switches it out.  Pretty cool.

Rules of Engagement:
When they were on the roof top and Samuel Jackson says "waste the mother fuckers!"

The ending shootout.  Wasn't the best but why repeat what everyone else is posting.

The gun fight between the two Chinese gangs.  Makes me laugh!!!!!

I have to cast a vote for Boondock Saints.  Awesome movie

I also love the shootout scene in CARLITO'S WAY, when he's stuck in the bathroom with no ammo.

My favorite one was the made-for-TV smear job about the Waco incident.  It's the scene where the JBT rushes the front door and is immediately shot down.  I laughed me arse off.

Here are my favorites, not that it matters, but here it is anyhoo:

1.) Scarface -Tony Montana's last stand with his weapons at his mansion.  Gotta love that grenade launcher on his "little friend" the AR rifle.

2.)  Last Man Standing -Lots of shooting and dead bodies defying laws of gravity everywhere.

3.)  The Rock -Navy Seals in the shower room.  No, you sickos!  Not a scene where Navy Seals [u] are [/u] taking a shower, but engaging in a  gun battle with the marines [u] in  [/u] the shower room.   Stop grinning with vivid erotic thoughts, Miss Magnum!                      Miss Magnum:  Ahhhhhhh...naked Navy Seals in the shower.(drool)    [:I]

4.)  Aliens -The Colonial Marines in the fire fight with the aliens was real awesome.  Ha Ha Hudson with his, "Game over, man. Game over!" line or something like that.

5.)  And last but not least, The Matrix.  Loved the entire movie in regards to the shoot scenes.  I'd bet sales on Desert Eagles went up due to the movie.  It always did with the .44 magmun revolver when the movie Dirty Harry played.  Also, the sales on any red and blue pills probably went up too.     [;)]

Anybody see Harlem Nights w/Eddie Murphy???

Hilarious movie w/a hilarious scene where Arsenio Hall and a couple of other "gangsters" are blazing away with Tommy guns at Eddie who is behind cover.  After what seems like many drums from the Tommy's, Eddie raises his m1911 up without looking and kills all 3.  Seems like no one has seen this movie but I highly recommend it!!

Come on you guys, most of the picks were, are good. But you all missed one of the best. John Cusack in GROSS POINT BLANK. If any of you have not seen it you need to rent it. Also they got hilarious but Leathal Weapon and Die hard did as much for Berettas popularity at the time as the U.S. Army did.

What I most like about HEAT is the way Val Kilmer works the trigger. He's firing short bursts instead of spraying. Way cool!!!

What about the insertion team shootout from G.I. JANE?

Okay, so the best part was Demi Moore not owning a bra. But the shootout was okay too.

RULES OF ENGAGMENT was breath-taking through out.

I've seen alot of great shootouts mentioned but I'm afraid I have the no.1 all time greatest shootout in the history of motion pictures. And the winner is.....TRUE GRIT starring John Wayne.

Remember the Duke astride his horse in that high mountain meadow facing off Robert Duvall and his gang. (Duvall) "Thats pretty bold talk for a one eyed fat man". (Duke) "Fill your hand you son of a bitch!" And the fight is on, the Duke with the reins in his teeth, a Colt Peacemaker in his right hand and a Winchester loop lever carbine in his left. He whirls and fires that Winchester and blazes away with that Colt! Hot damn! if that aint the best shoot out ever I'll kiss your ass on the Pitchers mound at Yankee Stadium on a saturday afternoon!

 I'll double that, and please dont forget Gunsmithcats. one of the only cartoons with realistic gunfights where animated characters actually get shot, stabbed, and ATF agents flicked off.
 The manga is cool too, plus the added bonus of some gun, and car info [;)]
