One of my favorite movies and an amazing scene. The sounds of the gunfire going off downtown and echoing across the buildings is amazing.

Movie has aged well and still one of the best shootout scenes ever made.

It is my constant hope that my local Alamo will bring this back someday and I'll be able to watch (and more importantly hear) this in an actual theater. As you pointed out, the sound engineering in this is almost more important than the visuals for conveying the intensity here, and I have to imagine that it is simply concussive with the aid of professional sound equipment.
