Best movie gunfights

"Equilibrium". Fake as crap but very entertaining.

Short gunfight. One of the best ones I’ve ever seen filmed.



Same director... not a movie, but good shooting in Miami Vice.


There's a good interview on YT with Jim Zubiena about this Miami Vice episode. He smiles and says "Remember, I was shooting Blanks and had to hit Nothing!" Jim was an up and comer in the late 70s. He would have looked better on screen than any of the others he was shooting with.:D:D:D
 
Den of Thieves and The Equalizer
Second on Den of Thieves. The rifle fight at the end is the best Hollyweird has ever filmed, the technical guy knew his stuff. Although the cops would have been fired and prosecuted for forcing the fight in a traffic jam. It would have probably killed 100 folks sitting in their cars. It definitely puts the bullshit to rest on cover vs concealment.
I liked the fact they showed:
Hand wounds are common.
No one has a static gunfight.
Gun fights are fast.
No one "walks off" a wound from a rifle round.
Rifles are primary fighting weapons, handguns are backups.
You'll never carry enough ammo for a sustained fight. Reloads are real, too.
Body armor has limitations.
Call friends when your daughters prom date shows up and explain how things work to him very clearly.

The final gunfight in the movie "Open Range" with Kevin Costner will go down as one of my favorites.
Is that the one where Costner fanned a 6 shooter 7 times and it fired every time ?

You would have to go back and check for yourself. I don’t specifically remember it.

The gunfights in Den of Thieves are pretty good. I do not like Butler; he and the BS about "MARSOC Marines" detracted from what could have been a great movie. But the gunfights and tactics were sound.
 


definitely one of the best sounding shoot outs.

One of the best TV series I have seen in a long time, not for content, but thats not bad either, is Strike Back. Some very realistic gun battles. They have 4 seasons, lots of gun battles and naked women, very suspenseful, very funny as well. It was on prime for a long time not sure if it still is.
