For some shoot 'em up action this weekend, give 2 movies a look.
Die Hard (1988) - the original. It pits Bruce Willis as the lone-wolf, street-wise NY cop against the slick, European thieves lead by the ultra-suave Alan Rickman. A nice mix wisecracking and semi serious dialouge. Plus lots of gun fire and several big explosions are sure to feed any action craving.
Commando (1985) - a personal favorite of mine from the "old" Schwartzenegger collection. Pure brainless action fun. Arnold S. uses his fists as well as an entire arsenal of weapons to basically destroy an entire guerrilla army who has kidnapped his daughter (played by Alyssa Milano). Some of the shootouts are borderline laughable where enemy fighters basically fall over even though it did not appear Schwartzenegger was even shooting at them. A must watch for great 80's action.
