4 shootouts in 1 clip. Underrated movie... the movie isn't really good or anything but it's alright.

Beyond underrated. One of my favorites of all time

The Cafe and Warehouse Scenes in Hardboiled. You know what, really any shootout scene in a John Woo movie.

Tombstone. OK corral.
Bad Boys 2. Haitian trap house.
True Romance. The hotel suite.
Heat. Bank heist.


Off the top of my head.

Some good nominations. A few that leapt to my mind:

For sheer classic coolness Clint as "Blondie" in the triangle faceoff at the end of The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly.

The shootout where Neo and Trinity go to break out the captured Morpheus in The Matrix was pretty fun.

When Leon, The Professional takes on the SWAT team to save Mathilda. (as portrayed in insanely precocious fashion by Natalie Portman in her big screen debut)

Pitt & Jolie as Mr & Mrs Smith take on an army of mercs in a store.

Bar scene in Desperado. (the fact that this movie introduced me to Salma Hayek was enough to make the list somehow)

Another bar shootout...this one being the meeting gone horribly awry in Inglorious Basterds.

The encampment raid in Predator with a special shout out to the governor of MN and his minigun, "Old Painless".

final gun battle between the French frigate Acheron and the aging British Man O' War Surprise (disguised as a whaling vessel) in Master and Commander: Far Side of the World

Korben Dallas vs. the Mangalores aboard the Floston Paradise in The Fifth Element

the lobby shootout from The Matrix

any scene from Diehard

Too bad I can't find the full version of the final showdown in Kick Ass.

I don't like the scene nearly as much as the other one I showed but it might be even better. The other one was just more intense when it happens given the circumstances of the plot. Just sucks I can't find the clip 2 minutes prior where Hit Girl puts a gun in someones mouth and shoots through their cheek to shoot another guy. Then lassos a dude to make him shoot himself in the head. Movie is wicked


And The Patriot... this fight scene alone made the movie for me. So awesome

If I see this movie is on TBS, I'll watch this scene and that's it. That movie was really close to being an all-time great, but they didn't quite get there.

We definitely agree on one thing then. I still think the movie is good but it's pretty long and drawn out. Would be better if they had more action. A lot of story telling that's kind of chick-flickish. Still a good movie

The final shootout in Young Guns

Definitely agree with the lobby scene in the Matrix

Doc Holiday versus Johnny Ringo in Tombstone (wasn't really much of a shootout, but still great)

Final scene in Reservoir Dogs (again for different reason, the tension, and who shot who?)

There were some great shootouts in the Magnificent Seven.
