this is their mind controlled feeding station... there were no "champion" gunslingers... mostly just regular citizens exercising their right to bear a convienient sidearm in leu of rifle or shotgun ... of course there were contests to see whose the fastest/best shot... our lives depended on our skills living in nature ... not "money"
Well, you still know nothing, because this is no 'gunfighting' expert. Not trying to be a jerk, this is just a useless excuse for an expert. She has zero clues what shes talking about.
Fun Fact: The guy that the mandalorian shot in this clip is played by Michael Biehn, who played Johnny Ringo in Tombstone. Who was the guy that got shot in the Tombstone clip.
I saw a video of Jonathan Ferguson talking about the guns of James Bond, and he mentioned the stance that Han Solo uses (stepping forward, pointing far forward with the opposite arm flung back) was a technique taught during the 50s and 60s or 70s by many agencies such as the FBI as their reaction shooting. So, while proven to be not the best and no longer used, it would have been thought of as one of the better techniques when Empire Strikes Back was filmed.
I give Han a little bit of a break because in the other clips the shooters were already aware of the situation and not caught by surprise. Han was caught completely by surprise and was just reacting defensively. In which case throwing the gun out at the enemy and automatically turning sideways is understandable as a gut reflex. He did not know that no one was going to shoot back. Bad form for quick draw, but his reactions were pretty quick for being caught by surprise. If it were anyone but Darth Vader it would’ve been a kill shot.
If you watch Han's scene closely, his left hand is behind him being held (pulled?) by Princess Leia's, hand who is trying to stay behind & left of the door frame.
Not to mention the fact that this mordern form that the expert uses has been overly optimized to hit stationary targets as quickly as possible. There are some good fundamentals at play, but isn't perfectly applicable to many of the scenarios we see in these films.
@@steveshopworxmachine5716 I read it as "something a trained gunslinger would not do". Doc is supposed to be a seasoned gunslinger who has been practicing quick drawing for years. As such he would have developed the muscle memory to move his other arm out of the way. It is something an amateur might do so she came down on it. It was still a very cool scene.
“Pop and lock”, you could feel her passion for quick drawing in that scene. This was a phenomenal guest on the series and I really hope to see her back. Her analysis was both informative and entertaining.
Damn, that lady's fast. Her clips look faster than the movies, and I'm sure they speed up the video in the movies a little. Kudos to you, Nicole Franks.
At the end of the clip she says they shoot "wax, or black powder blanks". But I certainly wouldn't want to be a robber breaking into her house, I bet she can handle real bullets just fine.
There was 40 feet between them when they stopped to make their play And the swiftness of the ranger is still talked about today Texas Red had not cleared leather 'fore a bullet fairly ripped And the ranger's aim was deadly with the big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip
Her Mother & Father are also in the sport of Quick Draw....her dad is a South Paw or left-handed draw. Nicole has won the World Championship EVERY year since she was 14...so I think she's pretty good.
@@mariusmioc3045 Oh I know...I've had the shear joy of watching her shoot in person as my fiance and her are in the same club in Langley, BC, Canada. Let me tell you seeing her shoot live is truely amazing. Her hand moves like Greased Lightning.
Tom Cruise went through intensive hand to hand and combat shooting training from SAS operators. His draw from retention in the alley scene in Collateral is so good it's used by handgun instructors. I think from draw to 2 opponents down is 1.7 seconds. The reason Keenu's shooting in the John Wich series seems so similar to Tom Cruise in Collateral is because Keenu went through the exact same training. Both of them could be top level combat shooters if they keep up their practice.
Yeah, he did it perfectly, locking his arm to his side and getting his head over the weapon, then the pushout for the second guy. Two to the chest one to the noodle. Perfection.
Doc Holliday was around 120 pounds, with tuberculosis. So, he had to carry a gun on him. What about the OK Corral? He was in the most notorious gun fight of all time
@@CubicLice Also, going by the movie at least, he was so quick and accurate that the risk to his arm is only theoretical. Helps that he didn't care if he lived or died either, I suppose.
Shooting targets and shooting at another armed person would be worlds apart. I don't think it would mean that Holiday or anyone else would never do it that way. Keeping on arm up would partially hide his other hand while drawing and could be used as a distraction.
Keanu trains constantly in true tactical shooting, not single-shot speed shooting. and does a fantastic job there are tons of videos of him at Tarren tactical training.
@@axleblevins3571 A tactical shooting is used to train MIlitary, Police, and security. and three gun follows that same training. I'd say Tactical is combat. the only difference between my "military Combat training and my tactical training was the gun in tactical was allowed to be more tricked out. but I still used my standard P226. operational marksmanship fundamentals and equipment selection are the same. malfunction work through speed and proficiency while maintaining cover. So uhm yeah tactical training is combat training.
I love the fact that the stunt double in The Mandalorian that does all those quick draw scenes is Brendan Wayne, The Duke's own grandson, so it all makes sense that he did a great job
Brendan Wayne is one of two stunt men who double for the mandalorian, the other is Lateef Crowder. Wayne does the gunplay style action while the more acrobatic or hand to hand combat stuff is done by lateef
@@madelinegarber7860 I THINK so... Cobb and Din all wear day draw rigs. And 100% Cad Babe wouldn't have messed with Din Djarin come to think of it. He has no counter for whisting birds. He'd get and use his shocky boys
In the Tombstone scene it’s Michael Biehn (Johnny Ringo) whose thumb you see the closeup of, then they show Doc outdraw him and shoot him. It was meant to show how much faster Doc is. Ringo grabbed his gun first as you can see in the closeup shot, then Doc draws his gun afterward and still beats him. It wasn’t some editing mistake showing Doc’s thumb then a wider shot of him drawing the gun or anything like that.
I was hoping I wasn't the only one who noticed this. She needs to go back and watch again. In the sequence she shows here, you can clearly see the hand thumbing the gun in front of a red shirt (obviously Ringo), then a couple seconds later, Doc holsters his gun in front of a black shirt, no red in sight. It may not change her opinion at all, but what she describes isn't what is being shown in the scene.
I swear seeing people make react and comment videos on the fields they specialize in on scenes from movies or games is just so cool. They show their wisdom and opinion on the subject and can better instruct and teach others what they really do. It's just nice to see this type of knowledge.
what's crazy to me is how she constantly has her finger in the trigger guard of her pistol, im no range/safety nazi either but kinda weird seeing a professional like her do it that many times in the span of one video
I also love that most of the experts featured are able to separate entertainment value (or comedy value) and accuracy in their field. Too often ordinary people kind of conflate the accuracy of something they know about with enjoyment of the story.
@@koopspook its a replica and if you ever drawn a gun from a holster its nearly impossible to pull it out with your finger on the side so I think thats why and she just didnt think to take it off after.
@@babiesdontpaytaxes.16 oh ok a replica. but going off of what you said about it being impossible tells me you either need a better holster, or you need to train more, start off slow with your finger straight
I feel like they should’ve put “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs” here. That movie definitely deserves some attention and I personally think they did great during the shoot off
I believe that what Val Kilmer was trying to portray was a technique that Doc Holiday was known for, in legend if not fact. He'd use his left hand to distract his opponent and obscure his right hand. There's a psychological aspect to this tactic. You control your opponent's timing as well as their focus. As they watch your hand and the cigarette your manipulating, you set a rhythm. Draw their focus to the right and left. This is supposed to have a semi-hypnotic effect that should slow their reactions. As their gaze follows your hand to their right side you fling your left elbow upward and rearward this will change their focus from your hand to your elbow and if they manage to get a shot off it will likely miss wide to your left side as a result.
Glad someone brought that up. There was never any videos of him quick drawing because of how long ago it was but Doc holliday was the best quick draw in the West and was known for being able to do things like what Val showed. I bet he was just as fast as this chick back then.
That's so true! Say what you want about him personally; his dedication to his craft is almost unmatched, making him a tremendous actor! I really, really enjoyed what he brought to Edge of Tomorrow.
@TreeFiddy no way. Not even close. They are different classes. Keanu might look good, but all of his stuff is modded for no recoil. It's a cheap trick for use on people that don't know any better. Tom Cruise doesn't cut corners.
Tom Cruise had a professional arms expert train him for that movie. That scene is highly regarded for the realism of the way he handles his gun as well as the acoustics of the scene.
The only thing that prevents collateral for being a nine out of ten is the ending, which I thought was such an anti-climax. Otherwise, a solid 8/10, Mann is a genius with action set-pieces, dialogue and mise-en-scene. Thief, his early film with James Caan which I *think* served as a starting point or at least an inspiration for Heat is a fantastic film. And nothing much really happens in it!
@@vollsticks The movie would be perfect if right as the train is pulling from the station you see Vincent clinging to the back of the train and it cuts to black.
@@rebel_diamonds That would have been an absolutely *dope* ending! I love unresolved/"hanging in the air"-type endings, gets the imagination working overdrive!
I'm very happy you liked the Mandolorian draw! I worked on the costume and props team for that specific costume. I had been playing around at the shop doing a quick draw. I ended up going to set to show the performer how I was drawing so quick and easily. It's a "space gun" so it was not the easiest of things to draw. But a nerd in the shop has all the time in world to play😁
I agree with the Cruise Scene in Collateral. I have always thought this was the most realistic gunfight I have scene in a movie. You can tell Cruise has had real training and has taken it seriously and practiced a lot
That comment serves to show, whether trained or not, that one hasn't been in a Gunfight. The only realism of that scene is that it's not animated. Aside from his slow actions there is no deliberacy and his defensive retention shot is poor on all levels yet shoehorned in then scene.
@@Z0mb3hHunt3r go watch larry vickers breakdown. Then come back and say sorry. Its called firing from retention. I got taught how to do it. Maybe you need training?
Came here to make this comment. How do you have a gunslinger one and not mention The Quick and The Dead?! The only equally egregious omission would have been The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Mexican standoff.
Back when I lived in an apartment in the 90s The quick and the dead would come on channel 20 almost every weekend and if I didn't go out that night I would watch it... Probably the one movie I always compare westerns with since I've seen it a hundred times. Such a good film and young Leo was.. Well young Leo.
That was a weird scene. If you look hard enough you can see that they actually play the same scene twice in a row but from two different perspectives. Its a really odd way to show it given its the only scene in the movie that does this repetition.
@Leon Russell It may not be the need for a stunt double. By season 2, Pedro Pascal was frustrated with always having the helmet on. Like most actors he wants his face on camera. The showrunners thought Mando's armor and helmet are integral to the character and wanted it to stay on. They decided all they really needed was his voice so he could record his dialog in a booth and other guys could actually be on set in the armor. He pretty much became a voice actor for the role. A very well paid voice actor.
You gotta give Han Solo an ocean of credit: he walks into a room and sees one of the most dangerous people in the galaxy there, whom he knows wants to capture, and torture or kill, his closest friends (and himself), and he doesn't hesitate for even half a second: he draws and fires. If it had been anyone but Vader, they would have been dead. That's the "Han Shot First" we know and love!
Han Solo is a "jack of all trades, master at none". He thinks on his feed and improvises as he goes. He can do anything reasonably well, but he's not supposed to be an expert, so I have no problem with him being not super-smooth on a quick draw. Also, if you're a target shooter, wouldn't you put the gun at arms length and look down the barrel? That is different from quick-draw, but maybe he wasn't practiced with the quick-draw.
@@MacNerfer you could make the argument that he lacks any formal training so while he shoots accurately through experience his stance doesn't do him any favours.
@@MacNerfer this is why I believe the theory that Han Solo is an unknowing Force USER rather than force sensitive. It explains everything he does so well.
@@CAMSLAYER13 Didn't they confirm in Solo that he went through almost the full Academy tgraining for TIE Fighter pilots? No way they do not teach shooting if only in case you have to bail out in hostile terrain. But his stance seems to fit actually using Iron Sights (although his Blaster has IIRC tghat cutesy little zoom optic on top?) so holding it at the hip woudl do nothing for his shooting style. Unless the target is very close by and might shoot first :P
My favorite thing about the fistful of dollars scene is that he actually misses his second shot and catches it by speeding up and burning all 5 rounds for 4 dudes. POW-POW-POWPOWPOW. Such a beautifully accurate scene
"I know what you were thinking: Did he fire off all five shots, or only four? To tell you the truth, in all the excitement, I kinda lost count myself..." Hope you like it :D
@@redseaford9426 I'm no expert but, I think one chamber was left empty on purpose so as to act as a safety. It wouldn't be wise to have the hammer sitting right on a primer while say, riding a horse.
@@payrocoin yeah, older revolvers had a habit of going off while holstered if fully loaded because of a flaw in the firing pin system. So they'd only load five rounds to make sure they wouldn't shoot themselves
I doubt people in the old west used modern quickdraw techniques, so the "realistic" part goes right out the window. Quickdraw techniques evolved as part of the SPORT. It's like the evolution of every other sport in the world. A modern boxer probably believes that olden-days boxers are terrible. Same applies here.
Collateral is spot on in terms of how you would want to draw your sidearm and then transition into that modified weaver stance. Tom does this exceptionally well! At the distance that he is to his targets, index shooting is very viable and allows for even quicker shots to be fired. Michael Mann, the director is arguably the only director who really cares about providing an authentic experience involving firearms on-screen. He also directed HEAT (1995) with De Niro and Pachino. The way that firearms are handled in that film is excellent! I'm not at all surprised to see Collateral get 10/10.
funnier thing is,,when they did actually have a real gunfight, their guns where already in their hands and cocked ready to go,,,,,,they still missed a lot.
Well yeah, guns were banned from towns. Whatever happened there would be obscured by incredible amounts of smoke while two + people fired blindly while running for cover.
My mother would have loved this vid and this host, she was a huge cowboy movie fan and was a cowgirl at heart..to the point she was buried in her favorite cowboy boots and cowgirl dress.
To be fair to Han, if I walked into a dining room and the literal boogie man of the galaxy was at the other side of the table I'd probably be frozen with a new pair of brown underwear. In terms of pure balls I will give Han 10/10
I agree. Han reacts completely without thinking as soon as he sees Vader. I give his "sloppiness" over to emotional reflex and more realistically, that it's more dramatic to point forward with the blaster rather than doing what's technically more proficient. It's a movie with space wizards in it. Han did good.
It's her opinion nothing more, in a standup fight Holiday would kill her 10 out of 10 times. Difference is she is an entertainer and he was a killer period.
@@harryblackburn9556 I'm sorry to be the one to tell you, that that's not Doc Holiday. That's Val Kilmer, and he most assuredly would not kill her in a gun fight.
@@tortillachips553 I was talking abt the character in the movie in tombstone. The real Doc Holiday was not that cool. Other than he was Wyatt’s Earps friends
The Han Solo ESB draw had to happen that way as he had Leia to shield. Vader was at the other end of the room so Solo had no incoming fire to consider. To be fair, that draw was probably the smoothest he'd ever made... but Vader got the last word.
I read in an interview years ago that Val Kilmer in training for Tombstone he wanted his style to be a bit reckless with an air of elegance. So it makes me wonder if her criticism is exactly what he intended and you pointed out.
@@mr.nobody9697 There's also the fact that at that point Doc knew he was dying of tuberculosis. The recklessness you mention there might have also been because he would have viewed dying in a gunfight as preferable to wasting away in a bed.
@@chrisnewman2737 in fact in the scene where Wyatt visits him in the hospital, he's saying something about feelin cold or whatnot, tells Wyatt to go, Wyatt leaves, and he looks down at his feet and says "this is funny". That's because Tombstone was the most accurate portrayal of the events that took place according almost every record that exists. Where curly bill shoots Fred White in the chest with an upside down pistol after acting like he was going to surrender them... yeah that actually happened, that that wasn't historically accurate because Curly Bill Broscious shot Frew White in the balls and fred bled out almost a day later. Also Virgil, and Morgan being shot on the same night wasn't accurate. Virgil was shot first a couple days prior and then Morgan was shot in the back while playing pool but didn't die till almost a day later. For the most part it is stupid accurate. Even the facial hair for the most part (nobody could grow a mustache like Wyatt Earp though. I've tried). Where Doc looked at his feet and said "this is funny" those were Doc Holiday's last words and it was because he always said he would die with his boots on. Why do you think he would take everybody up on a duel and everyone was too scared to take him up on it? Because you can't get a more reckless and dangerous man than one who is already dead.
It’s a thing that you can do, yes, but if I’m not mistaken it wasn’t actually done practically. I think that there are even famous gunslingers of the Old West decrying fanning and dual-wielding revolvers as nothing more than a parlor trick.
@@gustavskarlismikelsons4295 Yeah, Wyatt Earp: "The gun-fanner and hip-shooter stood small chance to live against a man who, as old Jack Gallagher always put it, took his time and pulled the trigger once." Earp did actually wear 2 guns for a re-draw instead of a reload, but he's adamant (In 1910 when that interview came from) that he always shot right handed, and just drew the second gun.
For Clint Eastwood, not only did he have a lot of cut out at the top of the holster he also had custom built steel lined holsters. And built for his specific gun. Thus, the draw stroke as well as slipping the gun into the holster after a few twirls is much easier.
The Tom cruise scene I really don’t think she should have been commenting on because it’s clearly way outside of her expertise and experience. That is a defensive style of shooting and she was attempting to place emphasis on his motion in a sense of quick draw versus what it really was/is which would be weapon retention and proximity to the danger with the addition of a second threat just to the side of his shooting hand necessitating him keeping the weapon retention in close to the body. Lots of respect to what she does, but similarly everything she trains for and is good at is for a very specific competition environment and most all of the actual gunfighters utilized completely different techniques that were more suited to a fun fight and not just speed and hitting a target 6ft away.
Terence has an official website where he has answered questions on his movies over the years and he states they went out of their way to hire the best military and professional shooters to be as authentic as possible while adding a bit of comedy, so his drawing is very authentic where she is bad mouthing it. She gives her opinions without actually doing research on what's going on. Same with her other video where she knocks Clint Eastwoods Dollars trilogy draws yet all 3 of them in Good, Bad, Ugly were former military sharpshooters in real life. Clint is a fully trained sharpshooter. I can't agree with half of her opinions because she may hold records, but they are all for standing still Target shooting for contests where these scenes shes judging are more realistic life and death. There is a huge difference between the 2 situations. Plus she geeks out over Tom Cruise and tells you she is biased which is not good when you're supposed to be doing a neutral review.
@@chadsimmons6347 are you talking about keanu reeves? This boy is well in his fifties... and has done martial arts training and firearm training for decades.
@@koekiejam18 Dude is a badass, Keanu didn't know marital arts before the Matrix and he got hooked into learning because of that. You should watch him in Man of Tai Chi (this was before John Wick) he can really fight and see how formidable he is.
I just to add that after Brandon Lee’s death, it’s very rare to see a gun pointed directly at another actor or stuntman. Even with blanks. It’s practically cinematic protocol nowadays
@@thebluestig2654 Whiiiiich is why they don't aim at people, even with blanks. Because there can be a mistake and it not be a blank. Which was the point of the comment.
I think the guns used in john wick had a obstruction when he used blanks (and the guys who made the blanks explained that they are using blanks that don't produce any fireball)
I read a small news report from Hollywood back in the late 1980s, that a young actor had taken his prop gun to his hotelroom, then pretended to shoot himself in the head. The flash from the blank actually killed him.
Westworld scene was played right because that character started to notice that everything repeats in circles so he was confused a bit. Thats why he was sloppy.
not everyone fights everyday or practices enough either. there is room for a brainwashed robot who isn't looking for a fight to be sloppy when one so quickly escalates. Her criticizing Keanu was what got me. She either doesn't realize he could drop her or hasn't seen how extensive he was with actual tactical ability. it isn't all quick draw.
@@ryansizemore5064 "Doesn't realize he could drop her." Five bucks says she beats him on the draw. Also, what in the entirety of what she said would make you angry? She literally compared him to the quick drawing done in Colateral, explained his actions, and then praised him the rest of the critique. How did that get your hackles up? This also is a quick draw expert being asked to critique quick draw clips on their quick draw accuracy. This video is literally all quick draw.
The one thing you're not taking into account on that second Django clip is that that was a battle not a showdown or target shoot. There's reflex and stress associated things that have to be considered
Damn, when she drew during the Collateral clip the frame rate of her camera couldn't keep up lol. That's crazy, I mean it's not a great camera but still it's amazing how fast these people can do that.
I think the connection went up and down throughout the video and it was dropping frames at that moment which made it look so impressive. TBH this is actually a cinematic trick from the old days Westerns. Just happened right at the perfect time for her by accident
keep in mind as well, most films are actually only shot in the 24 to 40 frame rate area, only recently are we starting to see 60FPS breaking out as data storage tech advances. The human eye see's roughly 50-70FPS for reference, with stuff like substance abuse, brain injuries, brain development, etc. being responsible for the variation. I saw a pretty cool study by the USAF that within about 15 miles the measured "FPS" of the human eye played a more important role than vision quality, as pilots are trained to spot motion, not planes.
to be honest im not impressed with theyre draw.or hers , leaning back like that is not even proper gun slinger shooting. " I mean why not just lay down flat and pull the trigger and call it the GOD of all draws
@Garrett Pierman keanu shoots with live ammo. And doesn’t do it occasionally. He’s taken it up as a hobby and is always on the range. He’s trained more extensively and accurately than any other actor in this list, and likely any other actor ever
I think giving him an 8/10 is fair specifically for judging his fast draw, which is what she's doing. but yeah for actual gun handling Keanu is legitimately amazing.
@@CyanPhoenix_ Keanu and Tom were also doing something completely different from what she does. She quick draws, they were drawing from concealment. So she always makes one motion toward the gun, but drawing from concealment you have to clear your covering fabric, in each their cases was suit jacket, then motion toward the gun. I think the training that Keanu and Tom did for their respective roles really shines, and I think Tom's is perfection. Two disrupting shots on target 1, movement to target 2 while he's fumbling to draw, Mozambique drill Target 2, then Anchor shot target 1. It's done so smoothly and quickly.
@@myitbos1335 and yet she is the absolute proffessional. She is not shooting down across the plane of her leg, she is not trying to avoid herself with her shot. Tombstone is my favorite movie but ima trust the expert here.
@@espygaming5101 Yes, she is a professional and has probably shot 10k's of thousands of rounds - if not 100k's of thousands of rounds - perfecting her skills. As well as thousands and thousands and thousands of hours perfecting her different stances, different draws, different holsters. Some of the era's she's critiquing it was a different mind/ skill set for that time.
More on the tombstone clip it is worth noting that the gun with the exposed firing pin was Johnny Ringos to show that he made the first move and Doc got the shot off first.
@@michaellopate4969 Having been in an actual gunfight, I can say without a doubt, that I know much more about it than someone who cosplays with a csp gun. Even the best cap gun cosplayer.
Fun fact Han solo shoots in the style that a lot of cops were trained in in the 70s to lower your centre of gravity lean into the recoil and use your off hand for counterbalance
To be fair to Han as a gunsllinger...he did wax Greedo with a hip fired speed draw under a table. So a surprise Darth probably just threw him off his form....
Cruise was extensively trained by a former British soldier who served in the SAS. There is a vid on YT of him getting that scene down. I think that was the best shooting scene in movie history...as far as how it would be done. It is over in seconds. Her skill is obvious but you would never have the opportunity to shoot like that on the street. I have seen hundreds of videos of actual shootings and you don’t have time to assume a stance like hers. It is over in seconds. Historically, old west gunfighters never did the “walk down”. That is Hollywood’s version on the shoot out...not reality.
Imagine yourself falling on hard times, and out of desperation you decide to break into a home and it turns out the home is hers and she just got back from a competition where she came in 2nd place and was not happy...just imagine.
Can't be worse than the guys who broke into a house where a woman was home alone, roughed her up a bit then tied her up...only to realize they broke into Dolph Lundgren's house. Or the idiot TV thief who had the terrible timing of stealing a TV right as Brandon Lee had come home.
What I like about the Fistful Of Dollar's shot is how it's very close to the barrel perspective so you see the movement actually pointing pretty much correctly even has he changes targets. It makes it believable. Plus for the Star Wars thing, since Vader was going to pull the gun out of his hand, he had to be holding it well forward for the shot. As for Trinity, he's using more movement than a contestant might, but he's REALLY got quick hands, you have to admit.
Cant believe my fave clip only got 3 out of ten. Always loved that scene with him smoking and then shoots. For me val kilma , tom cruise and keanu were my faves
The scene from Collateral is the most realistic shooting I've ever seen in a movie. Its perfect down to the last detail, and its obvious that they had an expert on to advise for the scene. Tom did a great job.
@Nightmare Pegasus Pretty sure in the film that guy is a druggie and also is meant to have no real weapons discipline so it makes sense he wasn't able to effectively react at all.
@@stevendowns4378 The whole scene happens in like 3 seconds. In reality, you're not reacting to that unless you're also a highly trained person with insane reflexes. It just happens too fast, by the time you realize its happening you've got bullets in you.
@@KakavashaForever as it should be maybe because I am autistic and have hyper-vigilance everywhere I go and lots of practice in reality in most situations . at home practice I will get obsessed and practice my draw technique dry fire I have gotten pretty quick because my opinion if you have a firearm you should constantly practice at the range but so much you can do at home to be better faster you should never quit practicing and always humble oneself and practice each time like you nowhere trained enough because with great power comes great responsibility!!
I tell you what, I have to commend her on her honesty and forthrightness as most speed shooters won't tell you their techniques. I sort of had to learn this on my own, and then get the fast draw and speed shooting videos from the companies you don't really want to be part of. Being able to do things right saved my life a couple of times, and the irony is, before the trigger was pulled. I enjoyed this.
It makes some sense for a firefight in that universe. Get low so blaster shots don't wing you, head forward and tilted so sparks or shrapnel from near misses don't get in your eyes, and since some blasters have low recoil, you can hold the gun out like that and aim using your arm as a guide, like you were pointing at the enemy. I also always thought he was posing like that because Vader was yanking his blaster away too.
the Westworld scene actually makes sense as the people in the park weren't trained, they were literally tourists playing a fantasy game where they couldn't be hurt so it didn't matter how bad they were.
Yes, I thought she was grading wrong. She was grading on "how good of a top level gunfighter" were they as opposed to "what level gunfighter are they trying to portray?"
Yeah, he hesitates for a moment too, like it isn't suppose to be this amazing action scene it being a perfectly clean shot would ruin the whole tone the scene is going for.
So true, the are many old gunfight stories of fast shooters that missed all the shots just to hit the dirt after. Most of the historical famous gunslingers didn’t even do fast draws. 🤠
I realise this is just for funsies but in Westworld James Marsden plays an android with ridiculous speed and accuracy but never uses his skills because he is programmed to be a goody-two-shoes who loses to the paying guests in duels (he's a killable NPC basically). In that scene he looks surprised at himself that he shot the guy, so it's probably the start of him subconsciously fighting his programming and why his physicality doesn't match the ruthless efficiency of the shot.
my only quarrel is with the Han Solo one, IIRC in the novel, Darth Vader is already pulling at his gun when he fires; hence pulling Han and his gun forward before Han realizes its a lost cause to hold the gun and let go. but again, spaghetti western in space.
13:06 To be fair here, Trinity isn't trying to shoot this guy. He's trying to intimidate him. Trinity is also supposed to be satire, like Austin Powers, so this is like a real-life spy critiquing Austin Powers.
Love to see clips where in the beginning i dont know anything, and at the end of the video, i learned alot. Great clip and good teaching of very very very beginner...
I liked her, her critic is very focused and takes the entire scene. Some other people seem to take one point of what's being analysed to give the score and don't talk about the rest.
Cruise's shooting in the move is what we call in the USPSA and IDPA shooting competition as shooting from retention. Simply drawing from the holster and rotating and firing. Very fast when you are this close. I have shoot stages that were setup as this scene. Very fun, but takes practice to shoot well from retention. John Wick uses CAR, or Center Axis Relock. It's a method of Close Quarters Combat (CQC) shooting that claims to bolster weapon retention and speed of target transition in extreme close quarters.
Harrison Ford does that kind of shooting to show the intense aggressive reaction of his character towards Darth Vader, not to show shooting skills. The shootout scene in Tombstone is gorgeous and not messy: Doc Holliday hides his drawing arm with his left arm holding a cigarette showing at the same time that he is, contrary to Johnny Ringo who shows his nervousness clearly, absolutely calm and selfassured. That´s because Holliday has nothing to loose. Again great acting here of Val Kilmer and Michael Biehn. I understand where you are coming from but those examples are not to show shooting skills but they are to be seen as artful acting.
This video is called "How real is it?" with someone who knows what the action being shown is like in real life not "How artistically meaningful is this actor portraying their character with this performance?"
Han shoots like that generally and isn't particularly a man of good habits. He's an excellent navigator more than anything else. He's a great gunner too, out shooting luke who was both an avid aircraft gunner and jedi- admittedly with expertise in imperial intercept strategy. But that's basically it. He can shoot with bad habits but relatively well. Besides, imperial target shooting isn't exactly top notch.
There's actually multiple breakdowns for that tom cruise scene in collateral when it also comes to not only his draw, positioning, and accuracy, but his reaction in terms of personal defense and technique. He purposefully pushes the opposing weapon away not across his own body as he draws to give himself time to draw and as he moves his arm back this gives him a window to drop the first assailant with 2 shots before turning to a more controlled stance to hit the second with 2 mid mass and one to the head as they're falling backwards with very little arm motion and height correct. Vickers tactical has a great breakdown on it.
I'd give Jamie fox a 10 out of 10 because he shot 7 times with a 6 shooter. That's skill

I saw a video of Jonathan Ferguson talking about the guns of James Bond, and he mentioned the stance that Han Solo uses (stepping forward, pointing far forward with the opposite arm flung back) was a technique taught during the 50s and 60s or 70s by many agencies such as the FBI as their reaction shooting. So, while proven to be not the best and no longer used, it would have been thought of as one of the better techniques when Empire Strikes Back was filmed.
That's an awesome little fun fact. Thanks for the info!
I give Han a little bit of a break because in the other clips the shooters were already aware of the situation and not caught by surprise. Han was caught completely by surprise and was just reacting defensively. In which case throwing the gun out at the enemy and automatically turning sideways is understandable as a gut reflex. He did not know that no one was going to shoot back. Bad form for quick draw, but his reactions were pretty quick for being caught by surprise. If it were anyone but Darth Vader it would’ve been a kill shot.
If you watch Han's scene closely, his left hand is behind him being held (pulled?) by Princess Leia's, hand who is trying to stay behind & left of the door frame.
Not to mention the fact that this mordern form that the expert uses has been overly optimized to hit stationary targets as quickly as possible. There are some good fundamentals at play, but isn't perfectly applicable to many of the scenarios we see in these films.
Was my thought, too... this is not a really bad style, just very old school

@@steveshopworxmachine5716 I read it as "something a trained gunslinger would not do". Doc is supposed to be a seasoned gunslinger who has been practicing quick drawing for years. As such he would have developed the muscle memory to move his other arm out of the way. It is something an amateur might do so she came down on it. It was still a very cool scene.
Yeah definitely don't talk shit about Doc. I don't care if it's unrealistic it's one of the coolest scenes ever.
It was weird, because I didn't even know I had a huckleberry.
I love when she described “blink of an eye” and refrenced how her fastest draw is literally in the blink of an eye. That’s awesome.
“Pop and lock”, you could feel her passion for quick drawing in that scene. This was a phenomenal guest on the series and I really hope to see her back. Her analysis was both informative and entertaining.

Or there's no interest in the sport of quickdraw so there's just a few passionate people.
@Stellvia Hoenheim seems like that's helping her holster placement for her style.
Tom Cruise went through intensive hand to hand and combat shooting training from SAS operators. His draw from retention in the alley scene in Collateral is so good it's used by handgun instructors. I think from draw to 2 opponents down is 1.7 seconds. The reason Keenu's shooting in the John Wich series seems so similar to Tom Cruise in Collateral is because Keenu went through the exact same training. Both of them could be top level combat shooters if they keep up their practice.
Yeah, he did it perfectly, locking his arm to his side and getting his head over the weapon, then the pushout for the second guy. Two to the chest one to the noodle. Perfection.
Keanu shoots 3 gun as a hobby, and has for quite a while.
I knew it was something special when I first saw the movie. No idea he went through that much training for one scene.
Bruh that wasn't Tom Cruise 🤣

In defense of Tombstones quick draw, he didn’t drop his smoke, style points. But she’s the professional so her score holds more weight
Doc Holliday was around 120 pounds, with tuberculosis. So, he had to carry a gun on him. What about the OK Corral? He was in the most notorious gun fight of all time
It wasn't something I was critiquing, and it looked real. I agree with you that she knows what she's doing. But, the fight scene looked cool.
Doc Holliday was also constantly sweating drunk, so I'd say he did pretty good tbh
@@CubicLice Also, going by the movie at least, he was so quick and accurate that the risk to his arm is only theoretical. Helps that he didn't care if he lived or died either, I suppose.
Shooting targets and shooting at another armed person would be worlds apart. I don't think it would mean that Holiday or anyone else would never do it that way. Keeping on arm up would partially hide his other hand while drawing and could be used as a distraction.

Keanu trains constantly in true tactical shooting, not single-shot speed shooting. and does a fantastic job there are tons of videos of him at Tarren tactical training.
Not really combat shooting much more of a competition shooting style
It's "Taran Tactical" named after Taran Butler.
@@axleblevins3571 A tactical shooting is used to train MIlitary, Police, and security. and three gun follows that same training. I'd say Tactical is combat. the only difference between my "military Combat training and my tactical training was the gun in tactical was allowed to be more tricked out. but I still used my standard P226. operational marksmanship fundamentals and equipment selection are the same. malfunction work through speed and proficiency while maintaining cover. So uhm yeah tactical training is combat training.

and what happened to Unforgiven and the Quick and the Dead?
I love the fact that the stunt double in The Mandalorian that does all those quick draw scenes is Brendan Wayne, The Duke's own grandson, so it all makes sense that he did a great job
Brendan Wayne is one of two stunt men who double for the mandalorian, the other is Lateef Crowder. Wayne does the gunplay style action while the more acrobatic or hand to hand combat stuff is done by lateef
It's gotta be very difficult to do anything in that suit and helmet, he definitely moves pretty well, for those conditions. Also, love Lateef!
@@charlietoole8707 It's not easy to wear that the helmet for long periods. No sense of depth

@@madelinegarber7860 I THINK so... Cobb and Din all wear day draw rigs. And 100% Cad Babe wouldn't have messed with Din Djarin come to think of it. He has no counter for whisting birds. He'd get and use his shocky boys
In the Tombstone scene it’s Michael Biehn (Johnny Ringo) whose thumb you see the closeup of, then they show Doc outdraw him and shoot him. It was meant to show how much faster Doc is. Ringo grabbed his gun first as you can see in the closeup shot, then Doc draws his gun afterward and still beats him.
It wasn’t some editing mistake showing Doc’s thumb then a wider shot of him drawing the gun or anything like that.
I was hoping I wasn't the only one who noticed this. She needs to go back and watch again. In the sequence she shows here, you can clearly see the hand thumbing the gun in front of a red shirt (obviously Ringo), then a couple seconds later, Doc holsters his gun in front of a black shirt, no red in sight. It may not change her opinion at all, but what she describes isn't what is being shown in the scene.
I swear seeing people make react and comment videos on the fields they specialize in on scenes from movies or games is just so cool.
They show their wisdom and opinion on the subject and can better instruct and teach others what they really do. It's just nice to see this type of knowledge.
what's crazy to me is how she constantly has her finger in the trigger guard of her pistol, im no range/safety nazi either but kinda weird seeing a professional like her do it that many times in the span of one video
I also love that most of the experts featured are able to separate entertainment value (or comedy value) and accuracy in their field. Too often ordinary people kind of conflate the accuracy of something they know about with enjoyment of the story.

@@scruffbagg yeah like that one scene where he shot someone's fingers of while shooting FROM THE Hip. I think that's just impossible
I believe that what Val Kilmer was trying to portray was a technique that Doc Holiday was known for, in legend if not fact. He'd use his left hand to distract his opponent and obscure his right hand. There's a psychological aspect to this tactic. You control your opponent's timing as well as their focus. As they watch your hand and the cigarette your manipulating, you set a rhythm. Draw their focus to the right and left. This is supposed to have a semi-hypnotic effect that should slow their reactions. As their gaze follows your hand to their right side you fling your left elbow upward and rearward this will change their focus from your hand to your elbow and if they manage to get a shot off it will likely miss wide to your left side as a result.
Glad someone brought that up. There was never any videos of him quick drawing because of how long ago it was but Doc holliday was the best quick draw in the West and was known for being able to do things like what Val showed. I bet he was just as fast as this chick back then.
I was thinking this myself.
Doc Holiday also happened to shoot Johnny Ringo near the top of the head in real life, so his portrayal was pretty spot on with the angle of his gun
@@monkeymilk8060 What's the source on that? I've always read he died by suicide.

Tom Cruise had a professional arms expert train him for that movie. That scene is highly regarded for the realism of the way he handles his gun as well as the acoustics of the scene.
Michael Mann and his realism 🙌
The only thing that prevents collateral for being a nine out of ten is the ending, which I thought was such an anti-climax. Otherwise, a solid 8/10, Mann is a genius with action set-pieces, dialogue and mise-en-scene. Thief, his early film with James Caan which I *think* served as a starting point or at least an inspiration for Heat is a fantastic film. And nothing much really happens in it!

Good combat tuck
That comment serves to show, whether trained or not, that one hasn't been in a Gunfight. The only realism of that scene is that it's not animated. Aside from his slow actions there is no deliberacy and his defensive retention shot is poor on all levels yet shoehorned in then scene.

He’s a regular standing ....also the stunt double...but it’s more him
@Leon Russell It may not be the need for a stunt double. By season 2, Pedro Pascal was frustrated with always having the helmet on. Like most actors he wants his face on camera. The showrunners thought Mando's armor and helmet are integral to the character and wanted it to stay on. They decided all they really needed was his voice so he could record his dialog in a booth and other guys could actually be on set in the armor. He pretty much became a voice actor for the role. A very well paid voice actor.
@SuperEmotionEngine what did he to do you?
You gotta give Han Solo an ocean of credit: he walks into a room and sees one of the most dangerous people in the galaxy there, whom he knows wants to capture, and torture or kill, his closest friends (and himself), and he doesn't hesitate for even half a second: he draws and fires. If it had been anyone but Vader, they would have been dead. That's the "Han Shot First" we know and love!
Hear me out -- maybe the reason he's reaching so far forward is that Vader is already pulling on the gun?
Han Solo is a "jack of all trades, master at none". He thinks on his feed and improvises as he goes. He can do anything reasonably well, but he's not supposed to be an expert, so I have no problem with him being not super-smooth on a quick draw.
Also, if you're a target shooter, wouldn't you put the gun at arms length and look down the barrel? That is different from quick-draw, but maybe he wasn't practiced with the quick-draw.
@@MacNerfer you could make the argument that he lacks any formal training so while he shoots accurately through experience his stance doesn't do him any favours.
@@MacNerfer this is why I believe the theory that Han Solo is an unknowing Force USER rather than force sensitive. It explains everything he does so well.
@@CAMSLAYER13 Didn't they confirm in Solo that he went through almost the full Academy tgraining for TIE Fighter pilots? No way they do not teach shooting if only in case you have to bail out in hostile terrain.
But his stance seems to fit actually using Iron Sights (although his Blaster has IIRC tghat cutesy little zoom optic on top?) so holding it at the hip woudl do nothing for his shooting style. Unless the target is very close by and might shoot first :P

I doubt people in the old west used modern quickdraw techniques, so the "realistic" part goes right out the window. Quickdraw techniques evolved as part of the SPORT.

Collateral is spot on in terms of how you would want to draw your sidearm and then transition into that modified weaver stance. Tom does this exceptionally well! At the distance that he is to his targets, index shooting is very viable and allows for even quicker shots to be fired. Michael Mann, the director is arguably the only director who really cares about providing an authentic experience involving firearms on-screen. He also directed HEAT (1995) with De Niro and Pachino. The way that firearms are handled in that film is excellent! I'm not at all surprised to see Collateral get 10/10.
Heat was good EXCEPT Al Pacino - everyone else did great. You could see they practiced (except Al)
That whole movie was 10/10--one of my faves, and one of the reasons that I can never write Tom Cruise off as an actual actor!
That's because Tom Cruise is very much into realism and he really shoots the two guys. The production then sent flowers to their families too.

I agree. Han reacts completely without thinking as soon as he sees Vader. I give his "sloppiness" over to emotional reflex and more realistically, that it's more dramatic to point forward with the blaster rather than doing what's technically more proficient. It's a movie with space wizards in it. Han did good.
In the novelization, it was described as the fastest draw Han had ever done. Obviously not fast enough against a Sith Lord.

There's also the fact that at that point Doc knew he was dying of tuberculosis. The recklessness you mention there might have also been because he would have viewed dying in a gunfight as preferable to wasting away in a bed.
Actually yes, you both are very much correct.
@@chrisnewman2737 in fact in the scene where Wyatt visits him in the hospital, he's saying something about feelin cold or whatnot, tells Wyatt to go, Wyatt leaves, and he looks down at his feet and says "this is funny". That's because Tombstone was the most accurate portrayal of the events that took place according almost every record that exists. Where curly bill shoots Fred White in the chest with an upside down pistol after acting like he was going to surrender them... yeah that actually happened, that that wasn't historically accurate because Curly Bill Broscious shot Frew White in the balls and fred bled out almost a day later. Also Virgil, and Morgan being shot on the same night wasn't accurate. Virgil was shot first a couple days prior and then Morgan was shot in the back while playing pool but didn't die till almost a day later. For the most part it is stupid accurate. Even the facial hair for the most part (nobody could grow a mustache like Wyatt Earp though. I've tried). Where Doc looked at his feet and said "this is funny" those were Doc Holiday's last words and it was because he always said he would die with his boots on. Why do you think he would take everybody up on a duel and everyone was too scared to take him up on it? Because you can't get a more reckless and dangerous man than one who is already dead.
In "What I learnt today", that fanning a revolver is a legit thing, rather than being pure Hollywood artistic license.
And that there are guns purpose built for it
It’s a thing that you can do, yes, but if I’m not mistaken it wasn’t actually done practically. I think that there are even famous gunslingers of the Old West decrying fanning and dual-wielding revolvers as nothing more than a parlor trick.
@@gustavskarlismikelsons4295 Yeah, Wyatt Earp: "The gun-fanner and hip-shooter stood small chance to live against a man who, as old Jack Gallagher always put it, took his time and pulled the trigger once." Earp did actually wear 2 guns for a re-draw instead of a reload, but he's adamant (In 1910 when that interview came from) that he always shot right handed, and just drew the second gun.
Wait until you try bumpfire on modern guns, or if you have the luck of slamfiring a shotgun (or the misfortune of having an SKS slamfire itself)
Fat_Strelok or the original Remington 700 shooting by itself
For Clint Eastwood, not only did he have a lot of cut out at the top of the holster he also had custom built steel lined holsters. And built for his specific gun. Thus, the draw stroke as well as slipping the gun into the holster after a few twirls is much easier.
The Tom cruise scene I really don’t think she should have been commenting on because it’s clearly way outside of her expertise and experience. That is a defensive style of shooting and she was attempting to place emphasis on his motion in a sense of quick draw versus what it really was/is which would be weapon retention and proximity to the danger with the addition of a second threat just to the side of his shooting hand necessitating him keeping the weapon retention in close to the body.
Lots of respect to what she does, but similarly everything she trains for and is good at is for a very specific competition environment and most all of the actual gunfighters utilized completely different techniques that were more suited to a fun fight and not just speed and hitting a target 6ft away.
Terence Hill's drawing may be a 5 out of 10, but his slapping is certainly 10 out of 10
I love the Trinity movies. I agree, this scene was not about drawing but about slapping.
Both 10 out of 10, Trinity is Trinity😁 And it was just to show how fast movement, that close accuracy is spot on anyway.
Terence has an official website where he has answered questions on his movies over the years and he states they went out of their way to hire the best military and professional shooters to be as authentic as possible while adding a bit of comedy, so his drawing is very authentic where she is bad mouthing it. She gives her opinions without actually doing research on what's going on.
Same with her other video where she knocks Clint Eastwoods Dollars trilogy draws yet all 3 of them in Good, Bad, Ugly were former military sharpshooters in real life. Clint is a fully trained sharpshooter. I can't agree with half of her opinions because she may hold records, but they are all for standing still Target shooting for contests where these scenes shes judging are more realistic life and death. There is a huge difference between the 2 situations.
Plus she geeks out over Tom Cruise and tells you she is biased which is not good when you're supposed to be doing a neutral review.
She complains about him aiming upward, funny thing is his barrel is pointed right at the heart. Kill shot. So how can you say it's sloppy or off?

Well he was in the military for a bit. He knows how to shoot.
I just to add that after Brandon Lee’s death, it’s very rare to see a gun pointed directly at another actor or stuntman. Even with blanks. It’s practically cinematic protocol nowadays
It wasn't blanks that killed Brandon Lee, it was a bullet lodged in the barrel from the previous firing.
@@thebluestig2654 Whiiiiich is why they don't aim at people, even with blanks. Because there can be a mistake and it not be a blank. Which was the point of the comment.
Yeah it used to be pointed guns at heads in just about every movie before that.
I think the guns used in john wick had a obstruction when he used blanks (and the guys who made the blanks explained that they are using blanks that don't produce any fireball)
I read a small news report from Hollywood back in the late 1980s, that a young actor had taken his prop gun to his hotelroom, then pretended to shoot himself in the head.
The flash from the blank actually killed him.
Westworld scene was played right because that character started to notice that everything repeats in circles so he was confused a bit.
Thats why he was sloppy.
not everyone fights everyday or practices enough either. there is room for a brainwashed robot who isn't looking for a fight to be sloppy when one so quickly escalates. Her criticizing Keanu was what got me. She either doesn't realize he could drop her or hasn't seen how extensive he was with actual tactical ability. it isn't all quick draw.
@@ryansizemore5064 "Doesn't realize he could drop her."
Five bucks says she beats him on the draw.
Also, what in the entirety of what she said would make you angry? She literally compared him to the quick drawing done in Colateral, explained his actions, and then praised him the rest of the critique. How did that get your hackles up?

@@chiarosuburekeni9325 the comment I was looking for
Yea in my excitement, I proposed. Lol
I would not mind her shooting me
She’s bomb hu
The one thing you're not taking into account on that second Django clip is that that was a battle not a showdown or target shoot. There's reflex and stress associated things that have to be considered
Damn, when she drew during the Collateral clip the frame rate of her camera couldn't keep up lol. That's crazy, I mean it's not a great camera but still it's amazing how fast these people can do that.
I think the connection went up and down throughout the video and it was dropping frames at that moment which made it look so impressive. TBH this is actually a cinematic trick from the old days Westerns. Just happened right at the perfect time for her by accident
keep in mind as well, most films are actually only shot in the 24 to 40 frame rate area, only recently are we starting to see 60FPS breaking out as data storage tech advances. The human eye see's roughly 50-70FPS for reference, with stuff like substance abuse, brain injuries, brain development, etc. being responsible for the variation. I saw a pretty cool study by the USAF that within about 15 miles the measured "FPS" of the human eye played a more important role than vision quality, as pilots are trained to spot motion, not planes.
I wasn’t paying attention at all. Them Canadian thighs!!!
to be honest im not impressed with theyre draw.or hers , leaning back like that is not even proper gun slinger shooting.
" I mean why not just lay down flat and pull the trigger and call it the GOD of all draws
this is just to fckng hilarious
Keanu Reeves as John Wick gets a 10/10 all day long. Keanu Reeves does that same stuff with live ammo at speed in training.
Yeah, i've seen some of his videos. He spends some time at the range.
@Garrett Pierman Keanu used live ammo for training. Watch the vids.
@Garrett Pierman keanu shoots with live ammo. And doesn’t do it occasionally. He’s taken it up as a hobby and is always on the range. He’s trained more extensively and accurately than any other actor in this list, and likely any other actor ever
I think giving him an 8/10 is fair specifically for judging his fast draw, which is what she's doing. but yeah for actual gun handling Keanu is legitimately amazing.
@@CyanPhoenix_ Keanu and Tom were also doing something completely different from what she does. She quick draws, they were drawing from concealment. So she always makes one motion toward the gun, but drawing from concealment you have to clear your covering fabric, in each their cases was suit jacket, then motion toward the gun. I think the training that Keanu and Tom did for their respective roles really shines, and I think Tom's is perfection. Two disrupting shots on target 1, movement to target 2 while he's fumbling to draw, Mozambique drill Target 2, then Anchor shot target 1. It's done so smoothly and quickly.
"You might shoot your arm off"
"Well you're a daisy if you do".
She makes this comment yet her shooting style places her right leg forward of the muzzle on just about every shot she takes.
I was just foolin!
Its not like Doc cared. Still a better way to go than what he had waiting for him.
@@myitbos1335 and yet she is the absolute proffessional. She is not shooting down across the plane of her leg, she is not trying to avoid herself with her shot. Tombstone is my favorite movie but ima trust the expert here.
@@espygaming5101 Yes, she is a professional and has probably shot 10k's of thousands of rounds - if not 100k's of thousands of rounds - perfecting her skills. As well as thousands and thousands and thousands of hours perfecting her different stances, different draws, different holsters. Some of the era's she's critiquing it was a different mind/ skill set for that time.
More on the tombstone clip it is worth noting that the gun with the exposed firing pin was Johnny Ringos to show that he made the first move and Doc got the shot off first.

Fun fact Han solo shoots in the style that a lot of cops were trained in in the 70s to lower your centre of gravity lean into the recoil and use your off hand for counterbalance
To be fair to Han as a gunsllinger...he did wax Greedo with a hip fired speed draw under a table. So a surprise Darth probably just threw him off his form....
@@bluelionsage99 also you cant see it really well but leia in that vader scene is actualy holding hans arm trying to pull him back.
Elephant in the room: Star Wars blasters don't produce recoil.
Yeah but unlike cops in the 70’s, Solo only shoots in self defense. Just ask Greedo.
How do you know that blasters do not have recoil?
Both Cruise and Keanu had training for their roles.
Theybwere both trained by Taran Butler, a three gun world champion, if I remember right.
Cruise was extensively trained by a former British soldier who served in the SAS.
There is a vid on YT of him getting that scene down. I think that was the best shooting scene in movie history...as far as how it would be done. It is over in seconds.
Her skill is obvious but you would never have the opportunity to shoot like that on the street.
I have seen hundreds of videos of actual shootings and you don’t have time to assume a stance like hers. It is over in seconds.
Historically, old west gunfighters never did the “walk down”.
That is Hollywood’s version on the shoot out...not reality.
A woman who shoots and shoots well is a beautiful thing but her curves are a work of art!
Thanks Capt Obvious. In other breaking news, a Dr had training to be a Dr.
Keanu was actually born in training with firearms
The tombstone scene was done that way because that’s how doc actually shot
Imagine yourself falling on hard times, and out of desperation you decide to break into a home and it turns out the home is hers and she just got back from a competition where she came in 2nd place and was not happy...just imagine.
Second place? Maybe you’ll make it out the hospital alive.
Can't be worse than the guys who broke into a house where a woman was home alone, roughed her up a bit then tied her up...only to realize they broke into Dolph Lundgren's house.

@@madmandan1982 true.. overall amazing
0:20 still funny
I slowed it down to .25 and still barely catch it 😭
It was a cut. Her video feed lags right there.
What I like about the Fistful Of Dollar's shot is how it's very close to the barrel perspective so you see the movement actually pointing pretty much correctly even has he changes targets. It makes it believable. Plus for the Star Wars thing, since Vader was going to pull the gun out of his hand, he had to be holding it well forward for the shot. As for Trinity, he's using more movement than a contestant might, but he's REALLY got quick hands, you have to admit.
Han always shoots like that unless sitting. He's a navigator and gunner, not a pistol duelist or something.
Cant believe my fave clip only got 3 out of ten. Always loved that scene with him smoking and then shoots. For me val kilma , tom cruise and keanu were my faves

Good ol' Michael Mann films. If I remember correctly Cruise was trained by the same SAS guy Mann got to train the actors for Heat.
For me the guy on the right seems a bit too much to have his gun struck, he's a bit slow to draw
@Nightmare Pegasus Pretty sure in the film that guy is a druggie and also is meant to have no real weapons discipline so it makes sense he wasn't able to effectively react at all.
@@stevendowns4378 The whole scene happens in like 3 seconds.
In reality, you're not reacting to that unless you're also a highly trained person with insane reflexes. It just happens too fast, by the time you realize its happening you've got bullets in you.
@@KakavashaForever as it should be maybe because I am autistic and have hyper-vigilance everywhere I go and lots of practice in reality in most situations . at home practice I will get obsessed and practice my draw technique dry fire I have gotten pretty quick because my opinion if you have a firearm you should constantly practice at the range but so much you can do at home to be better faster you should never quit practicing and always humble oneself and practice each time like you nowhere trained enough because with great power comes great responsibility!!

@Garrett Pierman | She's successful in various competitions all over the place, including many that use normal guns.
The videos of Keanu doing competition training is next level badass
Yeah he should probably be the one doing this video not her
I tell you what, I have to commend her on her honesty and forthrightness as most speed shooters won't tell you their techniques. I sort of had to learn this on my own, and then get the fast draw and speed shooting videos from the companies you don't really want to be part of. Being able to do things right saved my life a couple of times, and the irony is, before the trigger was pulled. I enjoyed this.
Fun fact, Han is shooting in the same style as old FBI and police trainings showed.
I would also think that not expecting to see Vader just surprises the hell out of him and he’s panic shooting.
It makes some sense for a firefight in that universe. Get low so blaster shots don't wing you, head forward and tilted so sparks or shrapnel from near misses don't get in your eyes, and since some blasters have low recoil, you can hold the gun out like that and aim using your arm as a guide, like you were pointing at the enemy. I also always thought he was posing like that because Vader was yanking his blaster away too.
Not adding the final scene from "Quigley Down Under" is like a criminal offense here.

@@JJ7show
Quickdraw stories are mostly made up movie myth and bullshite
@@JJ7show Yeah. In many showdown movies scenes, _both_ shooters will get shots off, but only one will go down.
I realise this is just for funsies but in Westworld James Marsden plays an android with ridiculous speed and accuracy but never uses his skills because he is programmed to be a goody-two-shoes who loses to the paying guests in duels (he's a killable NPC basically). In that scene he looks surprised at himself that he shot the guy, so it's probably the start of him subconsciously fighting his programming and why his physicality doesn't match the ruthless efficiency of the shot.
my only quarrel is with the Han Solo one, IIRC in the novel, Darth Vader is already pulling at his gun when he fires; hence pulling Han and his gun forward before Han realizes its a lost cause to hold the gun and let go. but again, spaghetti western in space.

Some other people seem to take one point of what's being analysed to give the score and don't talk about the rest.
Tombstone scene is hallowed ground. 10/10 forever.
How dare she.
Cruise's shooting in the move is what we call in the USPSA and IDPA shooting competition as shooting from retention. Simply drawing from the holster and rotating and firing. Very fast when you are this close. I have shoot stages that were setup as this scene. Very fun, but takes practice to shoot well from retention. John Wick uses CAR, or Center Axis Relock. It's a method of Close Quarters Combat (CQC) shooting that claims to bolster weapon retention and speed of target transition in extreme close quarters.
Harrison Ford does that kind of shooting to show the intense aggressive reaction of his character towards Darth Vader, not to show shooting skills. The shootout scene in Tombstone is gorgeous and not messy: Doc Holliday hides his drawing arm with his left arm holding a cigarette showing at the same time that he is, contrary to Johnny Ringo who shows his nervousness clearly, absolutely calm and selfassured. That´s because Holliday has nothing to loose. Again great acting here of Val Kilmer and Michael Biehn.
I understand where you are coming from but those examples are not to show shooting skills but they are to be seen as artful acting.
This video is called "How real is it?" with someone who knows what the action being shown is like in real life not "How artistically meaningful is this actor portraying their character with this performance?"
@@Andreva95 I fully understand that. That kind of is my point.
@@Andreva95 Oh, damn: Just looked up your channel and getting quite strongly russian troll bot vibes from it. For that reason: Go enjoy yourself.

Han shoots like that generally and isn't particularly a man of good habits. He's an excellent navigator more than anything else. He's a great gunner too, out shooting luke who was both an avid aircraft gunner and jedi- admittedly with expertise in imperial intercept strategy. But that's basically it. He can shoot with bad habits but relatively well. Besides, imperial target shooting isn't exactly top notch.
There's actually multiple breakdowns for that tom cruise scene in collateral when it also comes to not only his draw, positioning, and accuracy, but his reaction in terms of personal defense and technique.
He purposefully pushes the opposing weapon away not across his own body as he draws to give himself time to draw and as he moves his arm back this gives him a window to drop the first assailant with 2 shots before turning to a more controlled stance to hit the second with 2 mid mass and one to the head as they're falling backwards with very little arm motion and height correct.
Vickers tactical has a great breakdown on it.
