Ok , everybody what is your favorite movie shoot out? Could it be the ending of "Scarface" when Tony Montana takes on everyone with his M-16/M-203? Or possibly in Predator , after Jesse gets taken out and everybody comes up on line and lets her rip? What about in the part in "Aliens" when the space marines are "Getting our asses kicked"(Bill Paxton) and Michal Bien pulls out his trusty 12 gauge and "Vasquez" says"LETS ROCK!!!" (yes, lets). My personal favorite is in Terminator 1 when AHNULD takes on the police station with his AR-180 and 12 gauge SPAS. Nothing against LE , they were all just actors anyway. So what says you guy's?Take care.Coondog

The "Lobby" scene in The Matrix.
There isn't anything better. If you disagree, then you must work to free your mind. |
|
1. Bank Robbery scene in Heat.
2. Opening scene in Star Wars. 3. Beach Landing in Saving Private Ryan 4. The part in Black Hawk Down where they are pinned down by the .50 cal, and Ewan McGreggor runs out when the .50 jams and blasts 'em with the grenade launcher. |

my favorite is from naked gun 2 1/2 when two guys are shooting from behind barrels at each other. Teh camera shows each guy shooting then ducking behind his barrel, the camera pans out and it's the same barrel. I loved that one.
You gotta love the way of the gun scenes in terms of tactical cover and fields of fire, etc..... But, my alltime favorite gunfight scene has to be...... toss up between the usual suspects when they raid the boat and (surprise) ronin (any of them) and heat (not the big one, but the exchange at the drive in.) |
|
Beat me to it. There are a lot of cool shootouts in the trilogy (but that one is the best). How about Morpheus unloading that FA Glock at the Psycho Twins? Sweet. |
|
|
Black Hawk Down's defending the second crash site. It had me on the edge of my seat.
|
|
The final shootout in "A Fistfull of Dollars" where Clint Eastwood makes a bulletproof vest out of a sheet of metal.
|
|
There is no lobby. It is your mind that forms a room! PS: I would only say that the shootout in Heat is more realistic. Nobody can do the Matrix dance in real life. So I would vote for Heat just for reality sake. |
|
|
+2 Also fond of the Juliette Lewis kidnapping scene in "Way of the Gun". |

|
The In-Laws, with Peter Falk. Falk and the bad guy have a shoot-out from opposite ends of a taxi.
Kirk |
|
There are to many to list but I wanted to add a few from Underworld.
CH |
|
"I said I didn't like pistols. I didn't say I coul dn't use them." Quigly
"Is that my briefcase?" Collateral..the alley scene. |
|
"Ya have to ask yourself, do I feel lucky today? Well, do ya, punk?"
|
|
What about the tarmac scene at the airport? |
|
|
The last sceans in The Sand Pebels. Where Steve McQueen is running aournd the palace with the BAR.
|

SERPENTINE!!! The foley guys goof -up in that scene. One of the bad guys "fires" his rifle, but there is no sound to go with the recoil. Kirk |

|
Unrealistic as hell but BadBoyz II has some great shoot-um-ups.
|
|
Rooster Cogburn (John Wayne) in "True Grit" where he say's "Fill your hands you son of a bitch". It doesn't get much better than that, especially if you are a John Wayne fan.
Shootist |
|
Undoubtabley the last scene in Scarface.
SAY 'ELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!! Never seen the shootout in Heat. :( But once I do.. then I might have a new answer. |
|
The final shootout in The Way of the Gun. I find it a little more realistic than Heat due to the reloads. Oh, and Heat of course.
|
|
the most scenes in Leon, esp. near the end when the whole NYPD comes after him
|
|
I feel like I'm jumping on the bandwagon but....
Heat BlackHawk Down The Way of the Gun The Matrix etc. etc. |
|
The one in Open Range was pretty good, too. Except for the part where Kevin Costner fans out about 10 rounds from a sixgun at some dude. I've heard of artistic license but even a democrat would know that was BS. Definately a good scene and a good movie though-
|
|
I'll be your Huckleberry. |
|
|
Final shoot out scene in "3000 miles to Graceland." Costner with the saw249...
|
|
1) The bank heist in "Heat"
2) The Shughart/Gordon MoH Scene in "BHD" 3) The final assault in "Saving Private Ryan" where the SS use the 20mm FLAK in an antipersonel app (Made me covet one of those to this day). |
|
|
1. Platoon when Charlie Sheen and his partner get out of the fox hole running torward the enemy shooting everything in sight. He then screams, "It's fucking beautiful!"
2. Heat bank robbery. 3. We Were Soldiers. Just about every firefight scene. |
|
I believe that was the "settling" for Poncho. +1 |
|
|
*HARD BOILED gun fight in the tea house
*A BETTER TOMORROW II gun fight in the hotel with SPAS 12 *We Were Soldiers first battle scene French vs. Viet Minh |
|
Shughart and Gordon at the scene of the Six-One crash. To me, seeing a realistic dramatization of what two REAL LIVE men ACTUALLY did in the face of overwhelming odds is just mindboggling. I can't believe the US can produce men like that, to willingly go to their deaths for a complete stranger, just so no one could ever say 'they let us down'. |
|
That WAS a good one all right and how about the bank heist in Swordfish? |
|
|
When Woody starts his prison break out in Natural Born Killers and of course Heat.
|
|
Just watched Open Range the other day. Took a long time to get to it (this movie did NOT have to be an epic) but the entire shootout was pretty well worth the wait.
|
|
I just made this the background for the desktop on my computer and PISSED my girlfriend off something fierce. I think I'll keep it... |

|
We Were Soldiers - the part where the Sgt. Maj. is plucking off VC with his 1911 as they charge his position.
|
|
Two you may have forgotten in terms of acting, realistic reloads and hilarious empty-chamber clicks...
Desperado bar gunfight (those uzis towards the end are HILARIOUS) and Assassins in the cab - "It's bulletproof!!". Funny how bendaras was in both, huh? |
|
OT, but The IN-laws was some funny shit.
SERPENTINE SHELDON SERPENTINE! |
