everything going slow-mo, while some somber music plays, to make me absolutely positively aware that 'this' is a 'heavy' moment, and i should pay attention to how arty and sad it all is...
hahha..
actually..i kinda like when they do that, cliche as it is...like in platoon, when they keep going slow -mo, playing the classical music, while everything is getting blown to bits, and willem dafoe goes into his jesus christ pose, as he dies...
all in slow mo...heavy violence set to haunting classical somber music..
cliche as hell.
but damn if it doesn't look cool..

Oh I know this one! In any John Woo film, the following apply:
Hero shooting two guns at once, not aiming at anything but hitting every bad guy.
Doves flying behind hero while above happens.
The mexican standoff between hero and the evil bloke who is actually a lot like the hero really.
The slow mo martial arts fight between the two protagonists.
Huge explosion in the background while hero walks towards camera in slow mo.
Never having to reload a handgun, especially if the gun is a revolver, except when its really dramatic.
a motorbike chase.
As Homer said: I want no misdirected Woo, which is basically any of his films...
