The gunshots followed by the iconic Van Damme kick was such a badass. John Woo made a classic, truly an action legend

[@magnuskallas]

It's John Woo classic Van Damme kick good. It is amazing entertainment with cultural value.

[@HerrinSchadenfreude]

That's the best. Emptying the clip isn't good enough. It takes the followup boot to the grill to get the job done. And you have to love how the dude had the cigar in his mouth through all of it.

Van Damme's mullet is the best thing ever.

[@GonzGunner]

Speaking only for myself, "Hard Target" was the best picture Van Damme ever made. And Yancy Butler was the classic "damsel in distress" too!

[@sadetwizelve]

Better than Double Impact,Kickboxer,Sudden Death?

[@GonzGunner]

@@sadetwizelve Yes. While the other movies were great, I felt that "Hard Target" was the one that fully established Van Damme as an actor to be reckoned with, in other words, not just "another karate guy making another movie kicking asses". It had great writing, a great plot, and Lance Henriksen as the consummate evil villain and Wilford Brimley as a warm and welcome presence helping Van Damme to defeat him.

It still seems like there’s a bottomless mag every time he reloads. It looks like he shot van Cleaf 26 times. Round it down to 20 times for repeat camera angles. So 10 rounds a gun. Looks like he put in extended 20 round mags and considering how liberally he shot after reloading… It doesn’t take away from the action any since who’s really counting exacts anyway? Still amusing.

[@zaltmanbleroze]

I agree though Face/Off is a pretty close second. A shame John Woo stopped doing this style of action movies. Now he's back in China and have no idea what the guy is doing but it's nothing as memorable as his 90s movies.

6:04 Something else I noticed not in the theatrical version. They never showed the guy removing the arrow from his arm before chance unloads on the generic baddie. After Chance finish the baddie with the Forward the theatrical version makes him kick the Dude who just removed the Arrow then he empties the clip. Why did John Woo cut the first emptied clip out? Was it continuity issues? I just know those whole see is brutal uncut making this movie even more legendary to me.

This is the UNCUT version of the shootout only available on the Blu Ray in the US, while the DVD is the theatrical cut. Australia and the U.K. Got the uncut version on DVD initially, years later we would get it on Blu Ray. At 6:04 I wish they got rid of the shot of him removing the arrow from his arm, it's back in there in the next shot. Also his glasses disappear. This really bugged me. If they ever release a directors cut I hope they remove that shot.
