One of my favorite things about the scene is when Mike notices the bugs going quiet. You can tell he's like "well that's odd" right before he hears the horn.
This is almost certainly a callout to Once Upon a Time in the West -- there's a massacre of a family early in the movie that happens after the bugs go eerily quiet. That movie is one of Vince Gilligan's favorites.
This scene is a masterclass in sound design. The delay between the gunshot and its sound echoing through the hills. The contrast between what Mike can hear of the execution vs what it actually sounds like to everyone there. The cicadas in the background that you get used to and then are suddenly silenced. And not a single line of dialogue necessary.
@@Dvpainter Yes, used more as a sound effect. You don't even hear his full line, and they don't bother translating it like the other Spanish you hear in the show. Dialogue is defined as a conversation back and forth between multiple characters
@@yrxuL Give me an example of a television scene that has better sound design than this that you would not consider masterful. If I agree, you'll have proven your point, and I'll think more about my wording in the future.
When I saw this scene first, I thought Mike would take the shot, but only wound and cripple Hector by mistake instead of killing him outright, causing him to be in the wheelchair in BB.
Well, duh. Hardly genius, since it's the type of thing you'd find in a typical action-movie character (e.g. Martin Riggs, et al.). Don't get me wrong; many other aspects of the show are indeed brilliant, but a lot of people would argue that Mike's extensive skill set makes his character kinda "Mary Sue." But personally, I agree with you that it's a nice touch.
@@susieq360 Mike cannot be a Gary Stue by default of him being an older guy. Mike lived multiple lives and gained experience and knowledge. The intrigue of watching Mike is that he knows what he's doing, we are just piecing it together as he does it.
you could tell mike was some kind of ex military in breaking bad. easy to assume vietnam. And then in BCS, hes picking out snipers to protect Saul with, and he chooses the Remington 700(?), and makes a reference to the wooden stock deteriorating easily in the wet jungle. Small lines that let you know so much more about their character
Imagine Mike upon reading the "don't" nod his head and he put the tree branch back locking the car horn to non stop honking and proceed back to sniping.
Nope, Gus already blew his cover. Mike is not an idiot like that. Hector and his goons would already be searching the area for Mike after they heard that car alarm too.
Same. And it was totally in character for him. He is extremely carefull and professional. I first thought that he was thinking "I literally have only one shot at this and the chance that I miss is too big, so I'll try something else.
they almost certainly just fired the blank (or a real bullet into a dummy) for the scene and just had the mic up on the hill where mike was, so the sound was perfectly delayed because it was the ACTUAL sound of the gunshot reaching mike.
I love the detail of not being able to hear the twins gunshot until a second or so after to make up for the distance between them. Small but I loved it.
This an exceptionally well directed, photographed and, and superb editing::::> great non verbal storytelling, timing, use of pointed sound effects, good rhythm without relying on score. I applaud
This scene has to hit different for people watching this without watching Breaking Bad first. People that watched Breaking Bad could likely figure out who was behind the sabotage but this had to be a perplexing mystery to newcomers. If I remember right Gus hasn't made an appearance yet and hasn't even been alluded to. To anyone who watched Better Call Saul first, how did you feel when watching this scene?
@@SangreFriasBack there is also the Good Samaritan who was killed by Hector who called him when he found the driver gagged by Mike. that was the biggest mark on Mike's conscious as good people die when he was trying to mess with bad people, his son died in a similar way.
What I don't see many people mention is the realistic sound effect of the car horn. I imagine it's because a single frequency for such a long time would be unpleasant to listen to on TV but it also adds some more well-done realism, as if the gunshot wasn't enough.
At 3:39 , Average door width of ~32", Mil reading of 1.2, range approximately 675 meters. Well within range to a point target for a M40 (or M24-ish). Should really have a killflash but that would have 'ruined the scene' with the obligatory thru the scope eye shot.
@@Vismajor01 not entirely. Also shading moves a couple times and is out of continuity to the scene. Still well shot bit of tape! I submit anyone in that situation would have used one, or a shade, or a veil but it's just a show.
Is it just me or can a vehicle be heard around 2:54 and also around 3:14? (The bugs stop chirping at 3:51 and horn sounds at 3:58). Obviously they had to drive to where Mike was at, as it would be too far to walk. And thenthey had to quickly beat it once they’d sounded the horn, as there’s no sign of anyone as far as Mike can see, and he can see pretty far. 2:54 could be the vehicle arriving where Mike’s car is parked, and 3:14 is them getting turned around so they can drive straight away immediately after the horn sounds. I imagine they arrive, take a moment to ascertain Mike’s location, then get turned around to flee.
Yeah I think I can hear tires on dirt, I’m guessing Gus sent Victor or Tyrus to drive out there after seeing Mike was approaching the area where hector kills people
When I first heard that I just assumed it was the sounds from a distant highway. My house is out in the country without any noise from neighbors (other than the cattle), but it's about 2 miles from an interstate and that's what you hear in the evenings as cars go by.
I love how the middle of the scope only falls directly on Nacho (obviously because he's standing infront of Hector) but its a clever foreshadowing of his death. This scene is essentially a pre-scene to that one
Damn, Nacho must have insanely good eyesight. That, or Gus somehow communicated to him what Mike was doing and what angle he'd be looking at them from, all while he was alone with Salamancas in a torture shed. Or... you're dead wrong
@@internetshortscomp5810 And how did he know where to stand so that he was between Mike and hector. For all he knew, Mike was looking at them from behind, or the other side, or any other angle
Hardly it was Gus himself who pressed the horn with tree branch and wrote the note, probably Victor or Tyrus, but Gus gave the order of course. Gus operated his drug business very carefully and cautiously, he did not like to be personally involved in minor tasks. He did not mind to wipe floors and serve customers in his fast food place though. I think he would have been successful manager and owner of legit business, but of course with less money and power over subordinates. He made only one mistake in whole Br Bad @ BCS years : He had personal vendetta against Hector, he liked to keep him alive and torture him mentally. Finally, when he suspected that Hector talked something important to DEA agents, he decided to hill him personally even though Tyrus could do it and he even offered it. If he would have kept his principle : dont mix personal feelings with business, he probably would have survived. Walt was excellent chemist , but not much of the assassin, he almost screwed up with bell bomb .
When Gus confronted Walt in the beginning of Full Measure, Gus could have disposed of Walt. Instead what Gus does is let Walt go, only to attempt to kill him later in the episode, however at this point Walt had constructed an escape plan. Gus was dumb for not expecting Walt to think of some kind of way to avoid death.
@@jsisoap636 Gus intented to kill Walt at the end of full measure. The only reason Gus kept him was because Walt, ever so closely got the upper hand and killed gale. Did you watch the show?
I just wish they'd written Jonathan Banks in a couple of the scenes involving guns a little better. I remember him saying something absurd a Marine Scout Sniper would know better than when he was buying guns. The rifle is kinda M40A1ly, better than I remembered.
Imagine if Mike shot Hector here. So many things would have changed in Breaking Bad. Walter wouldn't be able to kill Gus. Hector was the only person that made Gus vulnerable.
So many people in the series could have been killed at any moment without them even realizing it, and were only stopped by timing, coincidences or just plain luck.
The attention to detail in this show is incredible. The sling he has on the rifle is a m1907 old mil spec sling, one he'd have extensive experience with in Vietnam but isn't too common on modern rifles.
With all due respect to the incredible details of this scene and the show in general, Gus' timing was quite terrible here. If it wasn't for his incredible luck,Tio could have been taken down easily.
Hollywood don't realize what makes a TV show/Movie great are attention to detail, staying with shots to draw out tension and making it feel as authentic as possible. Why Breaking Bad is arguably the best TV show ever. You compare this show to something Disney + produces. It's dog shit.
Hollywood knows exactly what makes movies great. It's simply that now their purpose is to degrade and dilute the minds of society by consistently feeding it regurgitated slop. For more info, look into ESG scores, preferably explained by James Lindsay.
Higher likelihood the bullet would miss than hit in that scenario. There's loss of power over distance to consider, the amount of deflection Nacho's skull would have on the bullet, positioning of Hector's head behind Nacho's which couldn't be seen....
@@VolkaerTheir skulls wouldn't be the problem - marksmen don't actually go for headshots IRL. You pretty much always aim for centre mass, a shot in the chest is just as deadly and has a much better chance to hit. But yeah, same issue with trying to penetrate through another person.
Anyone wondering why snipers place the bullet on the ground like that before loading the bullet into the guy simple when bullets are hot they travel further and straighter warming the bullet up slightly before loading into the gun does make a difference don't believe me try it yourself
So Pryce hires Mike, but then fires him, but then luckily Mike catches him going to the police, so he contacts Nacho, and then Nacho, impressed, hires Mike to kill Tuco, but Mike instead sends him to prison, bun then Hector interferes, and Mike decides to rob Hector's trucks, but then Hector kills an innocent man who saved the driver, so Mike decides to kill Hector, but then Gus interferes, so that is how Gus and Mike meet. But when and how did Gus hire Mike?
I think he was a cop a lot longer than he was a soldier. Many old-timer cops use revolvers. Easy to carry and conceal, less likely to jam, and doesn't eject the brass after firing. They regard the limited rounds and smaller caliber as unimportant. Even someone taking regular target practice isn't going to use a pistol unless they're very close to who they're going to shoot. Mike isn't a blast away in the street kind of guy. When he uses a handgun, he's usually right there by his target, and he only fires once.
No, because sound isn't light. Also they made a shot into the scene from grave-digger friend, where no horn sound can be heard. That shot is made for people exactly like you
Smith & Wesson Model 629 - 44 MAGNUM ,the weighted coil is to reduce recoil. One of the best and most versatile CCW revolvers for protection against 2 legged and 4 legged predators and has excellent accuracy if you know what you are doing to up to 25 yards. Cost you about $1200 bucks brand new

They regard the limited rounds and smaller caliber as unimportant. Even someone taking regular target practice isn't going to use a pistol unless they're very close to who they're going to shoot. Mike isn't a blast away in the street kind of guy. When he uses a handgun, he's usually right there by his target, and he only fires once.
mike shoots him in a split second he is not blocked! TVA- You were not supposed to do that come with us
In the end this decision costed a life for Gus in the future
The moment the car horn went off Gus sealed his wheelchair fate
Do you think they happened to have pen and paper on them or did they plan to send a message this way
HAHA! I THREW THAT STICK BEFORE I WALKED IN THE ROOM! -Gus
In such a quiet deserted place, wouldnt the goons at the warehouse hear of the siren too?
No, because sound isn't light. Also they made a shot into the scene from grave-digger friend, where no horn sound can be heard. That shot is made for people exactly like you
Gus: "I decide when he dies....no one else."
Hector: 🤬🛎🛎🛎🛎🛎
Translation: *SOCK ME!!!!*
I learnt more from reading comments then the actual clip
full ear splat
bald head in the sun = sloppy sniper
Amor con amor se paga.
He made closing the bolt seem harsh and mechanical.no flow
Damn If this was COD that would be awesome quad
pending a reshoot 🤣🤣
always take the shot
what's that revolver he's got?
Not a pro by any means but I would assume it’s a .38 snub or something along those lines.
@@tero8569 Looks heavier to me - maybe a 357. Can't recognize the make and model, though. Ruger?
Smith & Wesson Model 629 - 44 MAGNUM ,the weighted coil is to reduce recoil. One of the best and most versatile CCW revolvers for protection against 2 legged and 4 legged predators and has excellent accuracy if you know what you are doing to up to 25 yards. Cost you about $1200 bucks brand new
Gus was way too late. The only reason Mike didn't shoot Hector is because Nacho got in the way
Bcs creators took their time, dragged scenes, and were unapologetic. It may bother some, but to fans no
Gus's worst decision. Some of these characters seemed smart and ruthless, but they all have fatal flaws.
"Don't" Biden must be a Breaking Bad fan
What rifle is Mike using here?
What’s the name of the movie # ??
It's Better Call Saul, a TV show. Prequel for Breaking Bad
Would've anything changed if Gus had let Mike take the shot besides Gus being alive at the end?
Gustavo wants hector to be alive so he can get his revenge for what hector did to max
How long of a shot would that be if Mike took it? 300m+?
It's Varga not Gus.
Mike would have saved himself a lot of trouble had he taken the shot
Far cry outpost
1:50 😭👌
One of rarest scenes where mike get outsmarted by someone 😂
Mike also got outsmarted by Walt in breaking bad as well lol
what rifle he uses?
