Shoot 'Em Up

From iwatchstuff, "As if the astoundingly brilliant IMDB summary isn't enough (a man named Mr. Smith delivers a woman's baby during a shootout, and is then called upon to protect the newborn from the army of gunmen), these shots of stars Clive Owen, Monica Bellucci, and Paul Giamatti in Shoot 'Em Up make me think this might be more than just a typical action film. Mainly because Clive Owen appears to be eating a carrot during a standoff."

Huh. Is this really the first Western movie to boost John Woo's conversation-with-guns-to-heads gag? I can't think of another one.

(There's a long scene like that in The Killers. One of the guy's girlfriend is blind and serves them tea while they have their standoff.)

Yeah, remember when that was parodied on The Simpsons?
