In the movies, one shot drops the bad guy. The good guy can shoot any gun he finds with 100% accuracy and "innocents" are never hit by accident. One of my pet peeves is the ghetto sideways shooting. If you have tried it, you know it can be done, but recoil is a lot harder to recover from. It may look cool, but it is not functional. Don't even get me started on shooting from the hip, magazines that never run out of ammo, shooting and running at full speed, shooting and diving through the air, or my personal favorite, shooting at something flammable and it catches fire.
I was watching Rambo 4 the other day. Good movie. Fun movie. Like all action movies of that type, the bad guys shoot 1000's of rounds at John Rambo and he was hit once...it the shoulder, and did not effect his abilities at all. Must be nice to be a action hero.
