Top 5 gun shootouts in movies

[Ray Ray 3,566]

Now, I'm not talking the best movies, but the most accurate in regards to firearms usage and knowledge.

 

Not in any order, here are mine.

 

Heat (that one is a no-brainer, and it's an awesome movie)

Way of the Gun (not a great movie, but the gun scenes are top-notch)

The Kingdom (I hate Jamie Foxx, but that last scene was a good one)

Unforgiven (great buld-up for that one, and the movie is a classic)

L.A. Confidential (great final scene, and I like the storyline)

 

What says you NJGF?

"True Romance" had a huge gun shootout. Was intense.

Heat has been one of my all time favorite movies since I saw it in the theatre back in '95.

 

[woodentoe 14]

Taxi driver. New York reloads and small caliber stopping power or lack thereof.

[Red Solo Cup 11]

OK well not necessarily most accurate but whatever.

Heat -- Michael Mann --brings me to

Miami VIce, season 2 , episode Prodigal Son. Shootout in the WTC courtyard, When Sonny shoots down the helicopter, and the ending when they go running to catch the Eastern AIrlines flight back to Miami out of Newark Terminal B. Brings back memories.

Airport security in the old days! OK not really a greatest shootout but one of my favorite episodes of Miami Vice.

Also the episode Phil the Shlll where Stan Switek shoots the TV saying "This one's for you Elvis"

 

 

IMFDB is a great resource:

Heat was the first one that came to my mind.

Great video. Hadn't seen it before. Thanks.

The final shootout in Open Range was a good one

[Parker 213]

Four & a half-minutes of mayhem: Sam Peckinpah's final scene in "The Wild Bunch"

 

[BlackOps Badger 52]

The final shootout in Open Range was a good one

 

Yes! Beat me to it. Kevin Costner was such a bad ass in that movie. First time I saw that movie, and K-Cos shot that dude in the face, I was all like OHHHH SNAP!!!

What says you NJGF?

 

LA Confidential has become a favorite, only recently discovered by my wife and I (both love it).

Any movie with LAPD carrying and shooting Ithaca shotguns is ok by me.

The time period is very special too, early 50's, not all about music for a change.

Agree with all your choices but will have to look for Way of the Gun, don't remember seeing it.

Now are you talking about depicting the most accuracy to real life training or just lead rain?

 

Accurate depiction:

HEAT (downtown scene and ending scene, nuf said)

Collateral, particularly this scene.

 

Wearing the unlimited ammo bandana (only video gamers will understand, sorry), Shoot Em' Up.

[Shortfuse 39]

The Getaway both the original version with Steve McQueen and the remake with Alec Baldwin several shootouts very realistic

[Walt of Destiny 412]

U.S. Marshals

 

[Mike48 0]

RED

 

....especially where the bullet detonates the RPG in flight

[TK421 2]

Heat was my first thought, still one of, if not the best.

 

Blackhawk Down and Act of Valor had a few good ones but no one mentioned the scene in the Matrix where Neo and Trinity break in to rescue Morpheus, next to the city shoot out in Heat that was my second favorite. Let us not forget the Kill Bill church scene.

[Ray Ray 3,566]

RED?

 

U.S. Marshalls?

 

Miami Vice?

 

The Matrix?

 

Taxi Driver, Open Range, The Wild Bunch are good ones.

[blksheep 466]

Alamo

Platoon

FireBase Gloria

Shooter

The Three Amigos

 

Done.

[woodentoe 14]

Ooooh. Fire base Gloria. Good one.

As said above. Heat has to be the longest and most convincing shoot out in any movie. That scene mad me buy a surround sound system just to watch it again and again

[monmouth 19]

Heat

Zulu

Saving Private Ryan, Normandy

Saving Private Ryan, Bridge

[Howard 538]

Without a doubt it has to be the new movie Olympus Has Fallen - the entire movie is one big shootout. I think there are more rounds fired in that movie than any movie of all times. The movie is just one big shoot out and blood bath yet the liberals don't seem to be saying anything about it.

I thought the fight scenes(which is the whole movie) were great. Awesome movie

How about walking dead?

Andrea shoots herself in the head with Rick's Colt Python.

Then a split second later we hear the clink of the ejected brass.

D'oh.

It's ok we'll clean it up in post production :-)

I agree! I couldn't believe how many shootouts and how much gun fire was in that movie... And imagine I brought my wife to watch the movie (with her being not to fond of guns and gun ownership)
