The Duke (as J.B. Books) in the saloon shootout at the end of The Shootist:watching: :watching: :watching:
Mines gotta be the Shootout at theend of the bank robbery in HEAT, or Tears of the Sun when they go around with silencers and snipers in the village
I always loved the "cop rolls" that Don Johnson did on Miami Vice...
Ya know... Run, do a roll onthe ground and flip back up. Then shoot :smt082 :smt082 :smt082
As for a movie... I gotta keep thinking...
+1 on the bank robbery scene in Heat! :smt071
Fogot to add the lobby scene in the Matrix.

MAN!!! There are a ton of good ones!!!
Another one of my favorites is John Wayne in True Grit in the valley firing his six gun in one hand and twirling his winchester in the other.....
OK Corral in Tombstone. Earp's/Doc vs The Cowboys.
Boondock Saints... love that movie.
I have never seen HEAT! I need to rent that.Quote:

A lot of kewl stuff in the 1st Matrix movie - Also liked the first shootout on the subway in the 1st Underworld movie - near the beginning of the film...
There have been so many over the years it is hard to pick just one. I'll have to go with Extreme Prejudice with The Wild Bunch a close second.
DUDE!!!! Excellent flick - Go rent it tonightQuote:

Open Range w/ Robert Duvall and Kevin Costner. Good 'ole time shootout.
Yeah, that's a good one. For realism, I think the shootout scene in "The Shootist" with Hugh O'Brian in the early barroom scene. In that scene, Hugh O'Brian ejects a sore loser from the gambling tables. The ejected customer is thrown out, draws his gun and wheels aropund and goes back in. He fires a few wild shots as Hugh O'Brian settles his account with a little pocket .38.Quote:

Ronin comes to mind. Some of the finest car chases as well.
Pale Rider - The Preacher vs. the marshalls
Last Man Standing - Bruce Willis great work with 2 45's :smt071
Quigley Down Under - That Rifle!! Not a lot of shooting, but well done scenes.
Hard to come up with just one favorite
The final shootout in "Way of the Gun"
The desert sniper scene in the first "Lethal Weapon."
While the big shootemup scenes are "entertaining" I guess I like it when they try to make them as realistic as possible.Take MR&MRS Smith for example , All those agents coming after them and NOT ONE of them has the brains to say Hmmm they must be wearing body armour,Guess I'll make a head shot and end this horse manure scene:mrgreen:
Another vote for Heat. It was used in a Police traing class that I attended and the next one I taught I had the same movie to make some points. A few months later I was on vacation and just caught the video of the LA Bank shoot out and I asked why they were showing Heat on the TV. For Realism I loved Jodie Foster in Silence of the Lambs in the shootout scene. I also like Eddie Murphy in 48 Hours when the big dude comes at him with the big knife.
