I've just been watching John Wick, and I can't recall seeing as much "gunplay" in a teevee show or movie as in this show. I think Wick must carry 25 or 30 loaded magazines. Kinda heavy, if you ask me. I've written gunfights in shows, but nothing ever like John Wick. FWIW. L.W.

You need to watch Bruce Willis in “Last Man Standing”
Best 1911 Movie shootout !

Best 1911 Movie shootout ! Yes, I've seen Last Man Standing, but I think John Wick beats Bruce Willis by about 150 rounds. L.W.

John Wick 4 was just over the top.
It was like watching my sons battle it out on their XBox or whatever that thing is they play games on. The first 3 John Wicks were OK, but I had to force myself to watch the 4th one. In a word....stupid.

In a word....stupid. Over the top? F.A., that ain't even the half of it. It was so ridiculous I couldn't stop laughing ... but I'll bet it makes a bundle of $$$$$$. L.W.

John Wick has gone about as far as it can go I believe. They milked that one dry
If you find yourself in a hole....quit digging

Not the same kind of gunfight but the military one in "Lone Survivor" between the Seal Team of four guys and the Taliban was a good one IMO. Lots of shooting at different distances and all kinds of hits with both hand guns and rifles.
