Best shoot em up movies

[MikeBjerum]

Is this the second or third movie thread?  The thing I always find is that I can name a couple, like I did, and then every post by someone else is a forehead slapper. 

Soooooooo many good movies and so little time.  At least with the memory fading it is a new adventure every time an old one comes on.

Been awhile since I saw this one, one of my favorites. Some shoot em up in the beginning.

Tom Horn with Steve McQueen

Yeah, I bet I haven't seen that in 15 years!

Your Right Marshall, that's the V8 forehead smacker, Tom Horn was great! I also haven't seen it in years but if I recall it was sad due to McQueen;s signature Henry or Sharps ( memory escapes me ), being temporarily stolen to set him up for which he is hung for a murder he didn't commit.

Thank you for stimulating the "gray matter" I need more.

Also The Wind and the Lion, with Sean Connery, Candice Bergman, and Brian Keith who plays Teddy Roosevelt, who is constantly sending his Winchester back due to a disappointing action. Sighting in his rifle with his daughters in the West Lawn of the White House., AH the good ol' days.

Thanks

Also excellent!

How about some of the 'Sackett' movies that he has done.

First off, love Tom Horn, very good movie.

Not surprisingly, movie and facts are just a tad different. Horn was a 6+ foot tall "cattle detective" (McQueen, the ultimate Steve, was 5'7") in the employ of the big ranchers. His job was to drive off or otherwise eliminate rustlers and maverickers - usually homesteaders - people who took calves of branded cows where the calves had not yet been branded. There is strong evidence to suggest he was not set up, that Willie Nickel was his doing, albeit a mistake for his old man.

And Horn as I recall used a Winchester .44-40 or .45LC. His comment to US Marshall deputy LeFlor was that the bullet must have travelled an arc like a rainbow for a 300 yard hit.
