Hands down, the best action sequence of all time.

Anything from John Woo's last Hong Kong film, Hard Boiled.

I have a serious movie-making question:

How do they get the horses to topple forward onto their heads without breaking their necks?!

Some of them undoubtedly will have done- that scene would never make it past the UK censors uncut for that reason.
 
I didn't know there were so many hidden ramps and spontaneously exploding cars in India.

I was thinking the same thing. Either those are some really well trained horses or the Humane Society hasn't made it to India yet.

Sorry, but the truck chase from Raiders Of The Lost Ark is the best action sequence of all time. It's the yardstick against which everything else is measured. :p

I have to admit, though, I did get a kick out of the lunacy of sliding a horse under a flatbed truck.

Agreed. It was realistic and sustained it self for 20-30 minutes without becoming tedious.

So why did all of those cars explode at the end?:confused:
