Often, I watch movies when I'm bored. Most of the time, I enjoy action, comedy, and sports related movies since they often have a lot of special effects and innovative approaches to them. That's why, in this section, you'll find my opinion of what I believe the best scenes of each movie genre is.

Action

The Untouchables - Baby Carriage Shootout
This is one of my favorite action scenes ever. Kevin Kostner is looking for the book keeper of Al Capone so he can interrogate him on charges of Income Tax Evasion. When they find the book keeper, several of Capone's badasses are along with him. Kostner opens fires on the first guy while he's dragging a woman's carriage up the stairs. The problem is that he lets go of the carriage and during the entire shootout, the baby carriage is rolling down the stairs. Everything is in slow-motion which gives it an excellent dramatic effect, and it ends with Andy Garcia shooting one of the bad guys in the head.

The Matrix - Lobby Entrance
If you've never seen this scene, then you're probably not a fan of action movies. Even though the Matrix is one of the greatest special effects movies ever, this has to be one of the best action scenes ever. During this scene, Neo and Trinity enter the lobby of where their leader is being held captive. A dozen or so SWAT guys enter the room and they all open fire. Plenty of different weapons, including shotties, automatics, and pistols are being fired. All of this is going on while awesome slow motion special effects, the matrix style jumps/kicks, and plenty of blood exchange parties. Best of all is that the scene ends to show the entire cement lobby room falling apart from all the misguided gunfire.

Lone Wolf McQuade - Norris Vs. Carradine
Even though this movie wasn't too great, Lone Wolf McQuade had a decent rivalry that built up during the entire movie. Even though it had corny no-blood effects, and fake deaths from explosions, Lone Wolf McQuade had two things that made it great. One, the theme song is an underrated classic, and two, the final battle between Chuck Norris and David Carradine is a classic. Kung Fu vs. Karate in my mind, a rivalry that is settled in an excellent five minute scene. To start off, Chuck Norris rescues his love and daughter, but then decides to fight his nemesis, David Carradine, in a hand-to-hand combat battle. The fight starts off with Carradine doing all these fancy moves including many reversals. Eventually, when he gets knocked down by Norris, he throws dirt in his face (hehe the cheap bastard). Then he starts kicking ass, and Norris's daughter tries to stop Carradine. Carradine smacks her and this enrages the hidden tiger within Norris. Finally, Norris kicks his ass, his wife gets shot, he picks up a grenade and kills Carradine. So it's not exactly what you expected, but the classic rivalry was in my opinion.

Black Hawk Down - Surrounded and Ambushed
Possibly ones of the bloodiest war movies ever, Black Hawk Down was an instant hit. One of the best scenes in the movie was when their chopper formation got ambushed by RPGs while they were landing in Somalia. Two of their choppers went down with many soldiers on the ground. Somalians rushed everywhere firing AKs and the men were forced to retaliate with very little ammo and support. Best of all was the endless amount of gore, the scene actually seemed very reminiscent of what actually happened in Somalia and there was plenty of cursing to go along with it. The entire movie was basically an action scene.

Braveheart - Long Spears Battle
Another historical movie about the Scottish, Braveheart sported plenty of violence, humor, and historical importance to go along with it. One of the best scenes I can remember was the one that involved long huge spears. The scene began off with a dramatic charge from the English with their heavy calvary and the Scottish just standing their doing nothing. The Scottish had their horsemen make it look like they were retreating when in reality they were flanking the archers. Meanwhile, the calvary marched right into the Scottish long spears, and then the Scottish charged the English. A very epic battle with plenty of blood, medieval slayings, and an excellent victory for the Scottish if I might add. Not to mention the intensity in the eyes of William Wallace.
