Best Action Sequence Ever Filmed - HD

Hard Boiled - The Hospital Scene. HIGH DEFINITION
One take in this sequence is a 2 minutes and 40 second tracking shot following 2 men shooting up a hospital while delivering great performances in-between the action.
Remember, this was done without post processing effects. John Woo manually slowed down and sped up the camera while they were rolling. There are no computer animated ballistics. Furthermore, the take was tried 6 times and failed 6 times. It was also supposed to be twice as long. That means all the ballistics had to be reset each time. Tony Leung, the actor in the cop suit, eventually took some ballistics to his eye and filming was stopped. In the last scene of the movie, you can see his real eye injury, no make up.
On the commentary, John Woo said the one-take idea was done because of low morale amongst the cast and crew. When he told everyone what he wanted to do, it gave everyone something to look forward to and be excited about. From then on, it was gravy until Tony's injury.

@insiderebelterritory Are you trying to convince me a shootout from 'Hard Boiled' isn't the greatest shootout ever? And you know what, it's not realistic, so what? Great action movies are never realistic.

it's not a good shootout scene. Why are they switching sides all the time? And why is this guy shooting his MP5 with one hand? That's rediculous.

My favorite shootout scene would probably have to be from "The Way of the gun". Mainly because it used real military tactics in them instead of fake ones.
