"Victory At Entebbe"

Forget the name, but about the '72 Olympics.

"Die Hard" (but coppers are mainly irrelevant third party)

"Assault on Precinct 13" (but the tables have turned)

"Standoff"

Hmmm... looking up more.

The Negotiator
Phone Booth
John Q
Die Hard
Airheads

I'm drawing blanks.

I just noticed that at IMDB.com you can search, with "plot" selected from the list of dropdown filters.

Pop in words like "hostage" or "standoff" or whatever and you'll get some matches.

Swordfish

which has one of the best opening lines; "You know what the problem with Hollywood is? They make $*it. "

Would the one(s) in the Terminator series count? And Robocop, prolly something in Police Academy.

 

[CommanderGoat]

Yeah, are you going for the entire movie is a standoff, or just standoff scenes?

Thanks guys. I am looking for standoffs where it is the main action or a long second act, mostly to get a feel for how it would be handled. Looking to read some scripts.
Thanks for the info on imdb. That's real handy.
