I sure love Michael Mann.



If you wanna see the kind of instructor and training that allowed Tom Cruise to pull off that scene you need look no farther than this guy and others like him.


This guy is (or was) Italian special forces.

Andy McNab and Mick Gould were SAS. Gould had a cameo in Luck as the hitman Dennis Farina killed in the restaurant bathroom.

I'm saving up some $$ to get into 3-gun competition myself. It's hard to be competitive for less than about $4k, but here's what it looks like.

Somebody already posted the hallway scene from Oldboy, so I'll skip that one.

For me, the most badass action scenes is one that has the suspense element. It's even better when a gun isn't involved.

Action simply doesn't get much better than this.

Fun sequences from The Winter Soldier (although the first is more an endurance run, like the opening where he's running circles around all the national monuments in DC).


Then there's the highway chase/fight scene, here in two videos (the second clip, Winter Soldier and Cap are just going all out, without slowing down):


(spoiler at end of second vid)


There are others from this movie (like the elevator fight).
