There's one scene in it—and I think people who have seen the movie know the one I'm talking about—that's possibly the most powerful, intense scene I've ever seen on screen. Absolutely worth watching.


When they exit the building and the chaos pauses for a moment.. absolutely breathtaking every time. It really sold that in the end everyone is on the side of humanity, and everyone hopes for a future. They just couldn't agree on how it should come about.


I think the grandparent was trying (rightly so) to avoid giving a spoiler by being ambiguous. Perhaps you could put a [spoiler] prefix on you post.


agreed, It was amazing because everyone automatically knew what was at stake and sides no longer existed in that conflict (temporarily atleast).


Even though it's not an "action" movie, it's always my go-to scene for an explanation of what makes a great action sequence. After that, I genuinely felt on the edge of my seat the rest of the movie; anything could happen.


There are several scenes which could qualify, and they are each masterpieces of filmmaking both from an artistic and technical standpoint.


It's moving moment, but what I remember about it is how the rug is immediately yanked out from under it.


That's the most depressing part of the whole thing :-(


Truly. Actually, there are a few of those 'scenes'.


Yeah Michael Caine's "Pull my finger" scene - it gets me every time.


Pull my finger!


Ping pong? :)
