Question Best movie shootouts ?

what are the best movie shootouts you've seen ?..I like the one in the marble elevator lobby in the Matrix..or the part where Clint Eastwood as Josey Wales mows down a bunch of northern soldiers with a gatling gun mounted in the covered wagon

Talking Best shootout?

Maybe Robert Dinero in 'Heat', doing the run and gun thing on main street...or even 'The Replacement Killers' when they are in the car wash. I forget the actors name, Chang Fat? maybe...:right:

I will agree that the lobby scene in the Matrix was really good...I was remodeling the room at the time and decided to blast that scene...61" projection TV, Dolby cranked to the stops....There was sheetrock falling from the ceiling! It was great! Of couse 'She' was not home at the time.

The bank chase in Heat is the best. Most rounds ever fired in a movie scene.
The meeting scene close to the end in The Crow.
And practically the whole movie, The Transporter.
The Professional has a good one, too.

Thumbs up

My favorite of all time is the 1952 movie "High Noon", with Gary Cooper, Grace Kelly and the song, "Do Not Forsake Me.":cheer: :guitar:

I agree with those who say the different reaction to High Noon by men and women is one of the best indicators of the differences between the sexes.

I went thru it with my wife; she thought it was a pointless movie:

"Why didn't he just leave?"
"He couldn't..."
"You're being stupid. Of course he could..."

That's a great one for sure...

I also like the lobby scene in the Matrix...

One of my favorites is the one in "The Last MAn Standing" where Bruce Willis is clearing out the bad guys house to save Larry (the guy that played Larry of Larry, Darrel and the other brothr Darrel...)

One of the funniest is the one in Beverly hills Cop at the end, especially when Taggert tells Billy, "You do that again, and I'll shoot you myself!"

Finally someone gets the best. Reins in the teeth, a Colt Peacemaker, a twirling Winchester, John Wayne, Robert Duvall. It just doesn't get better than that.
