Favorite Shootout Movie?

[RemingtonFreak870]

Mine is without a doubt:

-Desperado

I love that film. A little cartoonish in the way it is made but awesome IMO. If you haven't seen it you should. Best handgunfighting scenes in Hollywood. I gotta give Rambo First Blood Part II honorable mention, I loved that movie growing up.

48 Hours was actually realistic--not every criminal runs around with a machine gun, people actually carry small, concealable guns.

Boondock Saints was good.

 

[GlenJ]

Assault on Precinct 13. There are a lot of nice guns in that flick Although it was cheesy how every time someone was handed a weapon that was just used they racked the slide and no round ejected out.

 

[RemingtonFreak870]

Kind of how in Desperado they never hardly have to reload, except when ALL the guns are empty.

WAY OF THE GUN!!!

RONIN , lots of shooting and good driving scenes too.

"Ronin" was very good. But I think "Heat" was probably one of the best.

 

[Don Lu]

+1 for HEAT !!!!
I would have said desperado but, he made the gunplay look to easy. Desperado is avery close second.

 

[DrBoomBoom]

The Unforgiven. And I like History of Violence.

 

[tagaykoyan]

heat

+1 for Heat! the police vs bad guys in the middle of the street was pure realism. no background music, just plain pak pak pak pak.....

 

[bryanZ06]

Another vote for Heat. It sounds awesome on surround sound too!

 

[Lone_Gunman]

Heat was very realistic.

But the shoot out scene in the Government Building in The Matrix was way cool.

 

[HighVelocity]

Hard Boiled.

 

[GARY1911A1]

The movie Thief.

 

[Duckster]

Hamburger Hill!!!!!
"GOD BLESS THE INFANTRY"

 

[clipse]

1. HEAT!!!!!

Close 2nd- The new Miami Vice movie.

 

[Smokey Joe]

Classic shootouts

#1--All Time: "High Noon"

#2--"The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence"

#3--"Open Range"

 

[rustymaggot]

i always liked "mean guns" for the sheer sillyness of it. tons of one liners and random cool bits.

 

[jem375]

How could anyone forget "The Wild Bunch" as the greatest shoot out movie of all time???

 

[dao]

Heat, Ronin, Way of the gun...

 

[MCgunner]

Pale Rider

Anyone see "The Departed"? I could never have predicted the end of that one.

 

[obiwan1]

+1 on "the Wild Bunch"

 

[10-Ring]

Me, I'm still a fan of Heat...consistently well done shootouts throughout the movie not just the big shootout near the end.

 

[db_tanker]

The Long Riders....

The cast was what made the movie....the fact that they got actual brothers to play the parts of the James, Youngers, Millers, and the Fords.


the last bank hold-up is what made the movie bad-a$$...the slow-motion sequences...just did it up right.


Of course, all the others listed so far decorate my DVD shelf and disc binders.

Heat, Way Of The Gun, Ronin, and Boondock Saints are some of my favs.
