I've thought about it and yeah, probably that one. The entire film is a masterpiece, despite falling squarely in Pacino's shouty period.

It does check the boxes doesn't it? I recently just saw it. Apparently it's the sound of real guns bouncing off real stuff. The maneuvers are also realistic in a professional way, but that's just what I heard. Just like I heard it's supposed to be Pacino and De Niro "going at each other like obsessed animals"

Possibly because you register danger and arousal in the same pathways. Just guessing btw, could be you really just appreciate good cinema

Excellent assessment. What is it in Hollywood that makes it so once-great actors start screaming and chewing scenery around 50? Pacino, Hackman, Daniel Day-Lewis, Sean Penn (“Is…that…my…dotter…in…thar???”).

Thinking of other great scenes:

Collateral: Mugging and club (also Michael Mann and the same former-SAS tactical coordinator)

Sicario 1/2

The Way of the Gun

Black Hawk Down

Small Town Crimes


I’d submit Lone Survivor but I hated seeing the SEALs get chewed up. Probably too realistic.
