Shooter115 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 For realistic gun handling in large scale gunfights, I would say "Act of Valor". Best scene is where they are being chased by the cartel guys. When they dump the truck into the river just as the SWCC boats come around the bend and light up their pursuers. Nothing says "ass kicker" like the sound of a couple GAU-17 miniguns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhgtyre Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 For shooting, Kick Ass Ex A: http://youtu.be/fZasD64Teh8 Ex B: http://youtu.be/9EdxM_QSSnY For fighting, Ong-Bak: Thai Warrior (which I think BE recommended about 8 years ago) (okay so there is a lot of running and jumping and even running while jumping through some barbed wire but its got cool fighting).

benos Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 For fighting, Ong-Bak: Thai Warrior (which I think BE recommended about 8 years ago) THANKS. I couldn't remember that movie's name. It might be my fight scene favorite. He is the real deal - and does all his own fight scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillChunn Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 For shooting , I kind of always like "HEAT", when they came out of the bank. ^^^^^ THIS!They actually do reloads! BC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueridge Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 For shooting I would have to say Equilibrium, Act of Valor, and Unforgiven Close Combat I would have to say Unleashed (aka. Danny the Dog), Serenity (the Summer Glau bar fight scene), and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomicbrh Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) Platoon 327. The movie is about a French-Laotian platoon trying to work their way back to any friendly forces while Dien-Bien Phu is under siege. The only place I have found it in its entirety is on youtube. The original was in French but this one is in overdubbed Spanish with English sub-titles. Also Battle of the Casbah. Because of the cinematography it seems like a documentary or news reel instead of a movie. The military terrorist leader of the time plays himself. If I put the name of this main character in this post it would still attract too much search engine attention from the Middle East. He had ratted out his terrorist buddies to save his own hide but the movie makes him out to be the hero. These movies are old and slow by today's action movie standards but seem more realistic.

Graham Smith Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 For old west "realism", have a look at Appaloosa. Everett: "Short fight." Virgil: "Everyone could shoot." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny7 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Ong Bak movies are great. Great fight scenes. I also like the fight scenes from the Jason Bourne movies. Blackhawk Down has good shooting. Outlaw Josie Wales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamoShooter Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) The Un-forgiven for the personal up-close play of Luck. The best anti-violence film ever. The movie never made the violence look fun, or neat and clean. "We all got it comeing Kid" Clint Eastwoods best movie Edited April 28, 2013 by AlamoShooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
