TOP 50 MOVIE GUNFIGHTS

I think The Way of the Gun and Blackhawk Down should have been rated higher!

The #1 pick is right on! (IMHO)

I thought the Normandy landing was the most realistic rendition of what it would be like in battle I've ever seen. Never done that myself, but it captured it pretty well

 

[News Shooter]

I'm just watching the restroom shootout with the terrorists in True Lies.

It was pretty good

The #1 pick is right on!

Ditto.

 

[MasterShinken]

Awsome post... this is gonna keep me busy for the next few hours

 

[jshooter]

I was starting to get a little pissed off and then at #3 is The Wild Bunch. And my only regrets about the movie Heat is that I can't watch it again for the first time.

 

[RIFLEMAN1000]

Come on you've got to be kidding?

The best shootout in the movies .


The Unforgiven



When William Munney walks into the bar Looking for Little Bill *CLASSIC*

 

[bggsp]

Gimme a break...Private Ryan #1...Band of Brothers, but I guess that's a mini-series. the human waves of VC and NVA in Firebase Gloria was crazy...even We Were Soldiers.

 

[Rob]

I was reading down the list and thinking...I had better see Heat on this!

 

[mk70ss]

One word, "Heat" with Pacino, DeNiro, Kilmer. Great gunfght and extremely realistic.

 

[arlow]

Definitely Heat #1!!!!

 

[Urj]

There are two distinct reasons that Heat is the best shootout ever.

1 - They used actual tactics. Instead of the guys jumping around doing super duper somersaulting triple lutz half gainer backflips while busting out headshots they use small unit tactics and covering fire to leap frog between cover and engage the cops in an all out push through the line. BAD ACE!

2 - The audio. The director used the actual audio recordings from the weapons firing in the street instead of having new sounds put in during post-production. Can you imagine Val Kilmer opening up with his M16 and it sounds like a suppressed MP5?

Tombstone (ok corral), T-2 scene with mini gun,

As well as Collateral. Cruise may be an jerk or not, but someone showed him some moves and he practiced his ass off.

I would have liked to have seen Big Jake in there

 

[meth0d]

What's Pacino shooting in Heat? FAL?

My thoughts exactly! 5.1 surround...

Shorter version: Better Quality

+1

 

[RichM]

I was looking for Platoon...

 

[Arioch]

Does standing off 500 meters and dropping men on horses counts as a gun fight, then Valdez is Coming is right up there.

 

[Chrisg67]

Come on, nothing for the shootout scene in Shoot Em Up?

 

[trophygrl]

where's the love for reservior dogs?

[oilspill]

Open Range should have been higher for the audio alone. I love watching that scene at reference level.

 

[Half Cocked]

Tombstone (ok corral)

Agreed! This and Heat are my top two.

 

[Brian48]

Har. I love this. Coming from a UK site no less.

 

[Pilgrim]

Costner walks up to the guy, shoots him in the head, fires a couple more shots and as everyone runs he 'fans' his 6 shooter 9 more times.

"....in the film The Man Who Fell to Earth, a six-cylinder revolver is fired seventeen times in succession."

 

[pbearperry]

There was an old John Wayne western,where he is in a dark room and he fans his old 45 sexeral times killing the bad guy.Every time he shot,the muzzle blast would sillouette the Duke.Does anyone remember what movie this was?
