7 Explosive Action Movie Shoot-Outs [Stuff to Watch]


class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/stufftowatch_logo.png?323f2c" alt="" />A thrilling and well-filmed shootout can define a film, and a film chock full of thrilling, quality shootouts can define a genre. Every year a new flurry of action href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/the-best-sites-for-movie-trailers/">movies make it into cinemas, but how many make it into the hall of fame?

Today’s Stuff to Watch takes a look at the action movie genre and features a few of the juiciest shootout scenes ever captured on film. Of course there’s no way I can include every quality shootout, so be sure to add your own in the comments underneath this article. Let’s lock and load!

Heat (1995) [ href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113277/">IMDB]

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/heat.jpg?323f2c" alt="" />

Every time I think of this movie I can’t help but remember how gripped I was the first time I watched this scene. Of course the whole film is a quality production – but this particular scene sticks in your mind, has spawned countless references and even inspired a virtually identical mission in Rockstar Games’ href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/gta-muo-selection-great-resources-grand-theft-auto-aficionado/">GTA4.

Without a doubt a “must-see” action film, Heat stars Al Pacino and Robert De Niro but doesn’t rely on high profile actors to sell the movie. Take a look at the clip below; it sells itself.

style="text-align: left;">Watch: href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqT1lCqQyh0">Heat Downtown Shootout Scene @ YouTube (Embedding disabled on all uploaded videos of this scene, sorry!)

Hard Boiled (1992) [ href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104684/">IMDB]

It should come as no surprise that John Woo knows how to make a good action film, and with Chow Yun-Fat in a lead roll then you know the body count will be high. The plot’s as loose as it needs to be, but provides the perfect set-up: world’s toughest cop teams up with an undercover agent to take down mob boss and uh… people get shot.

Hard Boiled is often hailed as one of the grittiest, bloodiest and most violent films of its kind and this point is demonstrated excellently in the clip below. If this looks good then you’ll be delighted to hear that the film is full of sequences like this.

style="text-align: center;"> width="500" height="375" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4OPyoJgV_YY?fs=1&feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

A Better Tomorrow (1986) [ href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092263/">IMDB]

Another John Woo film (and not the last either), A Better Tomorrow tells the tale of an ex-gangster trying to break ties with his gang whilst reconciling with his brother. The fact that his brother is in the police force means they’re both well trained in the ass-kicking department, and that’s all the set-up you need for an action flick.

The following scene is the kind of gory, all-guns-blazing bloodbath that made John Woo a “household” name.

style="text-align: center;"> width="500" height="281" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/UcJb6vtHWV4?fs=1&feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

A Better Tomorrow Part 2 (1987) [ href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094357/">IMDB]

Remember that tough cop and his ex-gangster brother? Well this time round they’re teaming up with a restaurant owner and (in true action movie style) they’re out for revenge. There’s the plot over with – can you guess what comes next?

Here’s one of those typical over-the-top sequences action films have become so well-known for, except this one’s tinged with John Woo’s brutality and href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/10-neat-movies-youtube-cool-visual-special-effects/">special effects department!

style="text-align: center;"> width="500" height="281" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_NU6dnnM36Y?fs=1&feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

The Killer (1989) [ href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097202/">IMDB]

The Killer is a tale of remorse and double-crossings as a retired hitman undertakes one last job in order to care for his girlfriend and repay a debt he owes (not your usual debt, either).

My only criticism of this particular scene is that the bad guy with the incendiary shotgun ammo only fires one round. Now that’s not much of a criticism, but then again this is another John Woo and it’s hard to complain about ferocious gunplay.

style="text-align: center;"> width="500" height="375" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/megvxCzqLhA?fs=1&feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

Boondock Saints (1999) [ href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0144117/">IMDB]

The most recent film on the list, Boondock Saints is a tale of two brothers, the mafia and an FBI agent who begins to question right and wrong. The clip below is a thrilling and gory clash, but this isn’t your usual movie shoot-out.

Instead we’re treated to a slightly less orthodox firefight, recalled and narrated by Willem “and then there was a firefight!” Dafoe.

style="text-align: center;"> width="500" height="375" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/gd3Sl7P0IOA?fs=1&feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

The Wild Bunch (1969) [ href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065214/">IMDB]

No list is complete without this tour-de-force, and no action fan is complete until they’ve watched this movie. Set at a time when the American “wild west” was disappearing, a group of outlaws are hot on the heels of one last big score.

This particular scene is actually the final shootout, so if you’ve not seen the film then you might want to skip it for now. If you have seen the film then I doubt you’ll be able to resist clicking play in the video below.

style="text-align: center;"> width="500" height="375" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/KJMxGFco57Y?fs=1&feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

I’m very sorry I didn’t include your favourite shoot-out scene on this list (or maybe I did), but with so many to choose from it was tough to narrow it down to these few.

4 Firefox Add-ons To Compare Movies And Get Critic Ratings From Popular Movie Websites


class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/movie-seats-Shutterstock.jpg" alt="movie ratings"/>I don’t care to remember the number of times I have taken a film critic at his word and ended up wasting lot more than the price of a movie ticket. A few ruined dates later I have become a ‘wise guy’. Now, I try to catch as many movie ratings and reviews as possible mixed with word of mouth before I plonk down money for a movie ticket.

With my trusty Firefox browser by my side I go in the hunt for trusted movie reviews across the length and breadth of the web. There are more than a few movie websites featuring reviews on the latest that have hit the theatre. There are also quite a few href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/top-6-firefox-add-ons-for-the-movie-freak/">Firefox add-ons that help to shortcut the process for movie freaks like me. And here are four Firefox add-ons that help you compare movies across the popular movie information sites.

href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cinemeter/">CineMeter

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/movie-ratings01.png" alt="movie ratings" width="580" height="416" />

To get a broad overview, you really need to be aware that each site rates a movie differently. IMDb gives a movie ‘stars’ according to the feedback it gets from users. Rotten Tomatoes uses a mix of reviews from certified film authors and major film reviewers to arrive at the Tomatometer score. Users also give feedback here on how a movie has fared. MetaCritic with its Metascore and MovieWeb also have their own rating systems.

The Cinemeter is a short and precise Firefox add-on that works from the right-click context menu when you select the name of a movie. It opens up a small window and displays the score from each of these sites. The ratings are hyperlinked and you can click on them to take you to the movie review page on each film site.

href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/film-info-and-reviews/">Film Info and Reviews

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/movie-ratings02.png" alt="movie reviews ratings" width="255" height="400" />

A very simple but useful add-on that helps you read up the movie ratings and reviews from ten different websites. Film Info and Reviews opens up multiple Firefox tabs and takes you straight to the specific movie page on these websites – Wikipedia, IMDb, RottenTomatoes, Roger Ebert, Flixter, Allrovi, Metacritic, Netfli, BoxOfficeMojo, and Movie Reviews.

The Firefox add-on is visible on the add-ons bar. You have to click it once to open up the search box with the selection of the sites. You can select your choice of sites and that stays saved till you change them. The sites in combination give you all the dope on a release – from critical feedback to how it’s faring commercially.

href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/movie-reviews-finder/">Movie Reviews Finder

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/movie-ratings03.png" alt="movie reviews ratings" width="580" height="491" />

Movie Reviews Finder is a simple search engine for film reviews. It is a search enabler for IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, and other sites like Roger Ebert, Variety etc. Once you query the movie review search engine from the search bar, Movie Reviews Finder opens up a separate search results page with all the hits it could find for the said movie. You can choose to display only results from IMDb or RottenTomatoes by clicking the Refine results on top.

href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/eccellio-movies-search-engine/">Eccellio Movies

class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/movie-ratings04.png" alt="movie ratings" width="580" height="353" />

This is again a very simple but interesting search tool for all things related to movies. It is based on Google Search, but it tweaks the interface to give you a set of filters that enables you to search for actors, film festivals, awards, soundtracks, theaters, and of course criticism. You can select a filter from the ones given and also limit the search to specific types of documents by clicking on the vertically arranged icons.

The above three Firefox add-ons are very simple in the way they implement their one sole function. But in the end they save me quite a lot of bother with their meta-searched movie ratings. To highlight their basic usefulness, I would say that these add-ons are timesavers. Which is your favorite movie information website? Here are a few more informational links:

  • href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/4-websites-that-offer-family-friendly-ratings-reviews-on-movies/">4 Websites That Offer Family Friendly Ratings & Reviews On Movies
  • href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/10-youtube-channels-switch-catch-movie-reviews/">10 YouTube Channels You Can Switch On To Catch The Best Movie Reviews
  • href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/10-websites-short-sweet-twitter-movie-reviews/">10 Websites For SHORTEST Movie Reviews (on Twitter)

Do you visit the web to catch href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tags/movie-reviews/">movie reviews before you visit the theaters? Give us your take on these add-ons too.

YouTube Movie Page Receives New Look [News]


class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/YouTubeSquareLogo.png" alt="" />Just recently YouTube put out a href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/youtube-improve-user-experience-news/">nice update that made some changes to the end of the video screen and the playlist feature, and now they are at it again, bringing an update to their movie page. Everything looks a lot cleaner now on the new page, and it is certainly easier to navigate. I would say the layout looks somewhat similar to Netflix, which is a good thing, because Netflix has the layout for streaming videos down to a science. It still retains the YouTube style, just in a neater and easier to use way.

A major part of this update stems from YouTube trying to bring more of their Indian movies to the forefront. They currently have over 1,500 Indian movies on there, and this update was designed to make it easier to get access to those movies. If you are in India, href="http://youtube.com/movies">YouTube.com/movies will automatically show you their Indian movies, and if you are outside India and want to get access to them you can go href="http://www.youtube.com/movies/indian-cinema">here and href="http://www.youtube.com/movies/bollywood">here.

class="aligncenter" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/india.png" alt="" width="480" height="294" />

What do you think of the new YouTube page? Let us know in the comments!

New Android Marketplace Adds Movie Rentals and Book Store [News]


class="align-right" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/androidmarket1.jpg?54167" alt="" />Android users will be noticing something a bit different about their phone soon, as Google today announced the release of a major update that completely revises the class="vt-p" href="http://www.makeuseof.com/dir/android-market-marketplace-for-android-apps/">Android Marketplace.

The Marketplace will no longer be just a place from which you download apps – at least if you live in the United States. Users will be able to rent movies and purchase class="vt-p" href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-convert-scanned-pages-into-ereader-ebook-format/">digital books on their smartphones. Movie rentals start at $1.99 and can be either streamed to your phone or downloaded for viewing while you’re in an area without data service. Purchases made on the Marketplace are tied to your class="vt-p" href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/enable-google-multiple-signin-feature/"> Google account, which means they’re available on all the devices which have access to that account.

width="580" height="430"> name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5Pbo-d62ivY?version=3&hl=en_US&hd=1" /> name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /> name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /> type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="580" height="430" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5Pbo-d62ivY?version=3&hl=en_US&hd=1" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always">

Users across the globe will have to wait for these features to become available. Google hasn’t specified which additional countries will receive these new features, and have only specified “soon” as the timeframe.

In addition to the new content, the Marketplace has received a substantial interface update. The list-based interface has been discarded in favor of one that presents apps as a series of tiles, and additional support for best-of lists has been added in hopes of making it easier for users to find quality apps. App description pages have been changed as well, with the most prominent addition being a better interface for browsing app screenshots.

Smartphones running Android 2.2 or better can receive this update, which will be rolling out automatically to supported handsets over the next few weeks.

    5 Cool Android Apps That Every Movie Fan Should Have


    style="border: 0px none;margin-left:20px;float:right;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/androidmovies.jpg" alt="best movie apps"/>Like everything these days, movies are going mobile. Internet and mobile technologies together have opened many doors, and even us can feel subjects of a futuristic movie.

    Below, we’ve aggregated some of the best Android movie apps for the movie lover. Find reviews and watch trailers on the go, locate movie theaters near you, and get interesting audio bits and wallpapers delivered right to your style="text-decoration: line-through;">doorstep phone.

    id="more-55941">

    href="http://www.flixster.com/wap/apps/android">Movies by Flixster

    The Movies application by Flixter is one the most extensive applications available right now for movie lovers. It combines local features with general movie data. Movie ratings from href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/">Rotten Tomatoes, one of the more popular movie review sites, are shown for all new movies and top box offices.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/flixster1.jpg" alt="best movie apps"/>

    The Movies application will also look for theaters and movie showtimes near you, up and coming movies, and DVDs. Perhaps one of the more interesting features of the application is the ability to effectively ‘bookmark’ movies, which you’ll then be able to find in the My Movies tab above.

    Download it by scanning this QR code with your Android phone.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/flixster.png" alt="mobile movies download"/>

    href="http://www.imdb.com/features/android/">IMDb Movies & TV

    Every movie fan with internet access should already be thoroughly familiar with href="http://www.imdb.com/">IMDb; the Internet Movie Database. This website is an unchallenged authority on cataloging movies and TV series, and is known for its often-time critic user reviews. Personally, I always take a look at IMDb to determine the worth of a particular movie.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/imdbandroid.jpg" alt="android app movies"/>

    Having it readily accessible on my cellphone allows me to look up movie information without breaking a sweat, no matter where I am. If you’re living in the US, you can use the app to look up movie showtimes, TV listings based on your timezone, and even view recaps from last night’s shows. Users around the world can view film trailers, user and critic reviews, quotes, trivia, and of course all the different IMDb’s movie charts.

    Download it by scanning this QR code with your Android phone.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/imdb.jpeg" />

    href="http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-binomed-showtime-xAmF.aspx">CineShowTime

    Sure, both Flixter’s Movies and the IMDb app allow you to look up movie showtimes, but contrary to most modernist, I’m a strong advocate of dedicated applications. If you’re looking for nothing more than movie showtimes, there’s no reason your memory should be hogged by features you aren’t going to use. Besides, this application offers some interesting additional features.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/cineshowtime.jpg" alt="mobile movies download"/>

    CineShowTime automatically determines your location and the movie theaters near you. You can view the showtimes and plenty of information on the individual movies, including duration, rating, and a link to the IMDb page. But best of all, the application will automatically add a showing to your personal calendar.

    Download it by scanning this QR code with your Android phone.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/cineshowtime.png" />

    href="http://www.appbrain.com/app/hollywood-movie-wallpapers/com.heroplanet.hollywoodmoviewallpapers">Hollywood Movie Wallpapers

    If you regularly change your Android wallpaper, you’ve probably got your own sources of fun images, but I’ll bet it isn’t as easy to use as this application. Although the movie wallpapers supplied aren’t always as interesting, there’s always an ever-ready repository, and it doesn’t require you to individually resize and transfer any images to your phone.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/hollywood-droid.jpg" alt=""/>

    Swap through the images, zoom in with using but a single finger, and set your new wallpaper in a mere two taps. You can also mail yourself the wallpaper, or contribute to the overall wallpaper quality by issuing a rating.

    Download it by scanning this QR code with your Android phone.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/wallpaper.png" alt=""/>

    href="http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/entertainment/classic-movie-quotes_iecs.html">Classic Movie Quotes

    If anything, this application isn’t too sophisticated, but it’s a fun gimmick to have on your phone. Classic Movie Quotes, much like the name implies, supplies you with random audio movie quotes of movie classics.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/78053-2.jpg" alt=""/>

    If you want, you can also save said audio quotes as a notification or ringtone sound byte. To do so, select a quote, and press one of the buttons at the bottom of the screen. This will remain in effect after reboot.

    Download it by scanning this QR code with your Android phone.

    style="text-align: center;"> class="aligncenter" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/quotes.png" alt="best movie apps"/>

    Downloadable Movie Sites Must Have This



    1) A Wide Enough Variety To Appeal To Everybody – People have different tastes in there movies, music and games. The movies downloads sites should have a good selection from all or most of the movie genres such as drama, suspense, romance, comedy, horror, science fiction and fantasy, etc. They should also have movie selections covering the past (the old black and white movies) and the present (the newest blockbuster releases) and everything in between.

    Music downloads or mp3 downloads sites should have selections covering all or most of the wide array of music categories and sub-categories out there today such as jazz, rock and roll, r&b, soul, hip hop, opera, classical, big band, rap, etc., plus carry music selections from the early days until today.

    The games downloads sites should offer downloads from all or most of the different games categories such as strategy, roll playing, action, puzzle, educational, sports, etc. They should offer games selections for the different platforms available such as PC, Mac, Playstation, Nintendo, and Microsoft etc. plus carry games for the different game platform models such as Playstations 1, 2, 3 and PSP Gamecube, Gameboy, Gameboy DS and Wii, xBox and xBox 360, Zune, etc.

    2) What’s This Going To Cost You? – There are two different “fee” systems out there with different variations for each one. There is the pay-per-download system where you would pay a separate charge for each and every mp3, movie or game file that you download and then there is the unlimited downloads membership site system. I believe that you get more bang-for-your-buck by joining an unlimited free downloads site. Most of the unlimited downloads sites offer different lengths of time for your membership. By far, the best deal is the lifetime membership which includes everything that the site has to offer without paying any extra fees. By everything I mean that many of the unlimited downloads membership sites give you as part of your membership the software that is needed to “rip & burn” your own cd’s and dvd’s.

    You will also find that if you join a music site for instance, not only will you be able to download unlimited mp3’s for your mp3 player or iPod, but the sites library will also include movies, games, software, eBooks and more products for you too download. Even though many of the membership sites offer a cornucopia of products to download, just remember that if you are mainly interested in movies, than join a movie site because although they have other products for you to download, their emphasis will be on movies.

    3) How in The World Does This Thing Work! – Ease of use is very important because there is nothing more frustrating than paying for something only to find out that not only is it too darned difficult to figure out, it makes you feel like an idiot, and that fun rush you just had anticipating playing with your new toy just came crashing to Earth because some nerdo wiz kid made a program too complicated for even Albert (freaking) Einstein to use and the instructions are in some unknown dialect. The members area should provide you all the tools you need to start downloading as many games, mp3s, videos and dvd quality movies as you can handle. The download sites need to be easy for you to use and had to have “How To Manuals” that are well written and easy for a complete novice to understand. They should have manuals to teach you how to create and mix your own cds, rip and burn your own cd and dvds, and other tasks.

    4) Can’t This Darned Thing Download Any Faster! – When it comes to computers, the saying “Speed Kills” has a completely opposite meaning. It means, “If this damned machine doesn’t move any faster, I’m going to kill something.” With that said, it is of paramount importance that your downloads site have the capability to download your mp3s, movies, games and software files at “Warp Speed”, and while a lot of programs boast about how fast they are, we found that many of the companies failed to live up to their boasting. If you have ever visited an unlimited free downloads site you may have noticed the site bragging about their lightning fast download speed of 250x. The 250x means that their download speeds are 250 times faster than the speed it would take to download a file at Kazaa.

    Why Kazaa is always used as the comparison is because they always set the standard for the fastest downloads. Unlimited free download sites should meet the requirements for download speed which is at least 250x to 300x, but remember that their speed is only half of the equation. Your upload speed is just as important so if you are only connected to the Internet by way of a 56K modem, then don’t kill the messenger. One last word of advice. It doesn’t matter if you are using the fastest broadband connection on the planet. If you are going to download movies for your dvd collection, do it at night before you go to bed. Because of the amount of data (grahical and audio) it is going to take a very long time for your downloads. Load up your download before bed and when you wake up the only thing you will have to wait for is your popcorn.

    5) “Is There Anybody Out There?” – Although I don’t have a ton of verbiage for this criteria, it is probably the most important of the five. There is nothing that aggravates me more than getting little or no support when I run into a problem or have an important technical question about a product I just purchased. If you are going to be there to take my money, then you had better be there when I need assistance. The best companies offer great customer support 24/7 or as close to that as possible and have qualified technicians there to help you.
