No sound editing, massive planning. Please take a seat next to "not a fucking chance."

Risked a head shot with an unknown weapon, I mean how does the guy trust that the zero on that weapon?

That was cool, but nowhere close to Heat

The opening indie camera angle killed it for me.

ETA: The chick was hot though

Yep.

ETA- the only close second is Way of the Gun.

Other than the fact that it looked like it was shot by someone who makes after-school specials and the effects and sound suck horsecock, nothing.

Whatever haters. I liked it, but yeah, the headshot with the pickup gun was a bit... errrr...

Armored El Camino. Somebody didn't visit the box of truth before doing the bullet effects.

No...not even close.

It will take a hell of a scene to beat the street gun fight in heat

To Netflix!

Also, the black cop had a PX4, and the only part of that scene that bugged me is the bullets were hitting by the black cop when the dude with the USP shot, but he was aiming at the ground almost

I am taking into account they had about 1/50th the budget that Heat did.

The final shootout in The Way of the Gun was similar in being hamstrung by the budget and has the same shortcomings this does.. But even compared to Heat I like them as much for different reasons.

It's not like Heat addressed that one either. Pretty much the only movies I've ever seen that showed things aren't as bullet resistant as everyone thinks was Miller's Crossing and Quigley.

No comparison. At all.
The Heat scene kicks my heartrate up every time I watch it. It feels real as hell.

That sucked.

The patrol cars, at least, were penetrated. Probably too dramatically, actually. I recall the crew's 5.56 fire punching some pretty big "flower petal" exit holes through the far side.

I did a doubletake, but yep, Sonny Puzikas. Ok OP, I'll give you that much. How's the rest of the film?

My first thought.

Answer to the question is no. Final shoot out in Way of the Gun is better than the Heat shoot out.

Except for the part where James Caan hid behind wood storm shutters (only fail in the shoot out.)

must have been shooting plastic bullets as none of them went through the cars/buildings.

and he took the head shot when the perps gun was pointed at the hostage. he should have taken it when it was pointed away from the hostage.

This. The only reason any of those "professionals" in that video got dead is they came out from behind cover. Never happen. And that uparmored El Camino would have been not much cover in real life. Doesnt hold a candle to heat...

They were moving up pretty good, until the (we need to let the good guy win) end.

No shit and apparently our troops can rest easy as all they need to do to stop Krink rounds is up armor their Humvee with aluminum siding. Think of the weight and fuel savings!

I don't think I would even mention Heat in the same paragraph as that. It wasn't bad for what it was, but nowhere near Heat in caliber and execution.

Well, that and the zero recoil FA .308 that Del Toro had...

I don't think the "Release it on YouTube first, THEN sell the DVD/BluRay" marketing plan worked out too well for them...

(I don't know for sure, though)
