I, for instance, would be happy if all action scenes were as relentless as the Heat bank robbery.

That scene on the bamboo rods in the barn from Once Upon a Time in China. But the other suggestions here are great.

The rooftop scene in the much-discussed-here Die Hard.

That scene when all those aliens burst into the fortified room (and the last scene), Aliens.

And the fight in the train car, From Russia With Love, is excellent.

Speaking of Carpenter, I can think of a dozen moments out of Assault on Precinct 13 that fit here easily.
