I saw that movie In the theatre fresh off of my QL3 Infantry course. Up until then, I had never seen a gun battle in a movie that used fire and movement and stoppage drills like we were taught. I was completely transfixed during that scene.
And then there's Alec Baldwin...
Watch the Terminal List.
Action stars can conentrate almost exclusively on slick weapons handling without the need to focus on their accuracy. It's easy to go fast when hits don't count.
IIRC, they hired an ex-SAS guy to teach the fire and movement.
I know a few folks who worked with him for it. They did a lot of live fire to get him and the others ready for the parts.
‘Andy NcNab’ the Bravo20 author— aka Stephen Billy Mitchell - did the weapons work for HEAT. One of the first movies that put a lot of effort into weapons work.
I thought the actual Bravo20 movie with Sean Bean had a good advance to contact scene as well.
It's great that they do that and Keanu Reeves has always been extremely well prepared for his roles. But he's still only using blanks and working in a very, very controlled setting. All the live fire acquired accuracy takes a second place to camera angles and the director's vision. When the director says "go faster" you go faster, sight picture be damned.
Oh I don't know. He's no Jerry Miculek on the range, but the clip is showing he's no slouch with live ammo and different platforms either.
Agreed. He well trained and worked hard to develop the skills needed to play the part convincingly. But that only partly tranlates to the cinematic business of angles, perspective and scene framing.
From the article.No military or police training. Taught by his grandfather and praised by the police for his tactics. I was sure the dems would charge him for carrying in a no gun zone.

Trespassing is the extent of that.
Ram has a gun vault option for the consoleTrespassing is the extent of that.
Some states even have laws that one can’t have no gun zones on non Government property.
Some Federal Buildings don’t have secure lockers - so back when I had a badge they would often just have me carry my gun and sign in.
Now I need to lock it in my vehicle.
