4* Will Graham bursts through the window of Dolarhyde's house in slow-motion, set to Music/{{Iron Butterfly|Band}}'s [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida"]].
5* Dolarhyde's [[OneManArmy one man rampage]] as he battles it out with what seems to be a small army of police, absorbing at least one [[FeelsNoPain point blank bullet]] with seemingly no effect, qualifies too. As does the moment when Graham [[{{BFG}} puts five Glaser slugs through him]].
6* Will's EurekaMoment ''will'' have your blood pumping. No bells or whistles, just a quiet scene with two actors giving great performances, helped by a musical score slowly building up until you see Will's face lighting up with realization.
7* Doubles with a SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoment: Will takes his son shopping and comes clean to him, telling him what he has to do for a living, and the effect it has on him. His son looks at him, then changes the subject, but it's clear that they've made it over a hurdle: Will's son understands and accepts what his dad has to do.
