Best shootouts in movie history

[Parliament 14357]

Consider this who thread spoilered for violence.

Westerns, military movies, bank robberies, whatever.  What are the best ones?  And no votes for Michael Mann's offerings.  They are to all to be considered "the best."

 

[Baboontyme 2832]

Heat and The Town. Duh. 

[Doc Reeves 6434]

[mdmost 43110]

 

[F250 28886]

1. Heat

2. Open Range

3. Black Hawk Down

 

[Dutch 4496]

 

[Fondren & Main 6754]

Yeah fuck all that.  It ends with this movie.

 

 

[ButtFumble 5186]

 

[ButtFumble 5186]

IK a TV show not a movie and not the greatest "shootout" ever, but just the way it happens makes it one of the funniest

 

[The People’s Elbow 707]

Definitely Heat

The Town was good

Don’t know why, but I have a soft spot for the shootouts in Den of Thieves and Patriots Day. 

[crony 362]

Way of the gun is pretty damn good.

[Iceman 2730]

I agree that Heat is the best ever

Hon mentions:

.The baby stroller scene in The Untouchables

Not for volume, but for quality, the closing kills in both Enemy at the Gate and Hell or High Water

The snipers- FMJ, the German in SPR, and our own hero until he gets blasted by the tank also in SPR.

[baboso 6057]

The sniper scenes in Full Metal Jacket.

[NotActuallyALonghorn 4979]

The Matrix bank scene is pretty good for a more modern shootout.

Open Range for a western.

[RPM 26382]

Not a movie, but give Raylan Givens his due.

 

[GreenspointTexas 9722]

Open Range ending

 

Heat

[HouTex 1894]

Yep. Just saw the thread and The Wild Bunch immediately came to mind.

Danny Boy scene - Miller's Crossing

 

[henrygandorf 29198]

you figured it was a setup and you showed up anyway?

 

love when bud white comes out of the floorboard with his shotgun.

the motel they used for the victory is about a mile from me.

[Braff Zacklin 13671]

For me, it's the climax in Unforgiven. The dialogue, the gun play, the deliberate buildup, and so much tension. Unlike most shootouts, I truly had no idea who would remain standing.

"I was building a house."

Danny Boy scene - Miller's Crossing

 

Man, I love that movie. And that's an incredible scene. Albert Finney puts his stogie in the nightstand ashtray and slowly slips on his slippers then quickly dives to the floor. He blows a dude's kneecaps apart then tosses the Tommy Gun out the window and follows it, somersaulting his way off the roof. He coolly unloads the gun into the getaway car all the while "Danny Boy" is playing.

saul rubenik making multiple appearances on this thread.

[NotActuallyALonghorn 4979]

Not exactly a shootout, but I love the way they did the train robbery scene at the beginning of The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.

[Ten Bears 2484]

nvm

Agreed.  The tension build-up in both of these gunfights is brilliant.  

 

[Scooter Monzingo 821]

Harlem Nights shootout between Arsenio Hall and Eddie Murphy.

I like the Roach because he’s a simple man of few words, gets it done and is detached from the chaos around him.

Agreed. The prologue is as important as the fight in both cases. The epilogue was just as powerful as well. Peckinpah was brilliant. 

[tantric superman 4668]

Whole lead up to this was pretty good, because border.

 

[Buzzrock 15014]

The Matrix bank scene is pretty good for a more modern shootout.

Well yeah if you want to pick a 20 year old movie.

Recent award goes to John Wick.

[Buzzrock 15014]

Final dash in 3:10 to Yuma

Die Hard

One sided, but the jungle destruction scene in Predator

[Buzzrock 15014]

Whole lead up to this was pretty good, because border.
 

That’s the trailer from Avengers 4: The Collector and Thanos Bust Some Caps

[Buzzrock 15014]

 

Chris Penn is epic in that scene. “OUT OF THE FUCKIN’ BLUE!”

[atomheartbevo 89922]

Probably Peter North and Ron Jeremey in Anal Addicts IX, with an honorable mention of North Pole VII.

By modern I meant using semiautomatic magazine fed firearms that use these new fangled metallic cartridges. Somebody says shootout and I think old west.
