okay guys seriously it's a movie, it's meant to be entertaining so they're not going to kill eachother the second they see an opening . Besides would you really want the final fight of the whole movie to end quickly because of one lucky shot.
@NightAn93l You are so right. It really is just a movie & comparing this to real life CQC (someone said real life CQC would own gun kata... no shit!) is just stupid. Do you watch a movie to see what happens in REAL LIFE?
I think its the context. The movie is somewhat based in realism / is gritty. Its not like a high flying kung fu movie or wire-fu comedy. If they did this gun kata sequence in something like Devil May Cry (I believe they have) or any other fantasy world, no one would question it
This is the only gun kata that actually makes sense when "gun kata" is a topic. Then again, a proper CQC could easily own a stylish gun kata, which, in real world, actually does.
thats pretty nice work,, both combatants go for the persons face,, but i dont see them considering shooting the guys foot/knee-caps/legs first before going for the head. could they block the guys gun with 1 hand and shoot his foot with the other? anyone agree if its possible idea to use?
How are they talking right after with having heard several gunshots at point blank range a few seconds ago? They should be deaf. Maybe they communicate via other means than those that require working ears?
It is, in a way. It is a mixture of Chinese Wing Chun trapping, Filipino Escrima, and Hollywood choreography. It’s possible that shadow work from Russian Systema, as well as some other sensitivity arts played their part in it as well. For all the people who want to believe that Gunkata is a practical technique (it isn’t), this is the most realistic application in the movie.
what you shouldn´t forget: The combatants had to be 100% concentrated at getting chances to hit the opponent on the one hand AND NOT GETTING HIT THEMSELFES on the other hand. So they have to calculate the risk of taking a chance to cause some damage, because by going in the offense they would slight theyre defense - and they have to calculate this IN SPLIT SECONDS.
I miss video angles like this...in movies nowadays they just switch camera angles by the second just to make things look faster and cooler...to me its just nauseating and it sucks
@channelASP: Well, those little guns wouldn't hold many rounds; on full-auto they'd burn through them pretty fast.
@ Almay7881: Probably :P Harder to guage reaction time on slow-mo though.
What I want to know is what's going on at 1:34 - Preston disarms DuPont, but DuPont still has a gun in his hand? Did they disarm each other? Was Preston's gun empty so he let DuPont take it to leave him open to steal HIS gun (would explain why DuPont immediately throws it away...)?
No, they would have wasted ammo and then died. Just like fighters getting tired too quickly in a fight, only shoot when you think it's right. The idea is that they are THAT damn good at blocking gunfire.
The main guy in the film trained the new clerics in gunkata, so i think he was waiting for a kill shot, cause in the training, it looked liked they were always aiming at the face.
The handling of the guns, the movements and pistol-whipping, is very similar to the sword-style they practice. It could very well be that they practice sword arts as a sort of study of basics before practicing with the guns themselves.
Ok for all the people talking crap about how they both had chances to shoot each other...Think about this for a second, you had to SLOW DOWN the video just to see those chances. Meaning in close combat, you aren't going to see EVERY opportunity to take down your opponent. Especially when the opponent is almost on equal grounds combat wise. The choreography was some of the best I've seen, it even rivals the matrix.
In slow mo I actually expected to see a lot of flaws in the scene, but they the slow mo has actually made it clear how well they have shot the scene. It has some real dodging going on, not faked which no one can pick up at real speeds anyway.
Yeah I mean there are gonna be times when your in your opponents aim, but you use the delay they have to get out of the way again. Alot of factors cause this delay, primarily the skill of your opponent.
True, but your knowledge of spelling and grammar sucks. You would have been completely in the right and untouchable if you'd only spelled "Bereta" right. I would've even let the "ure" stand. Instead, you've committed an EPIC FAIL.
Get the fuck off the internet and thank you. Good night.
I just hate ppl that start their comments with "actually...". Especially the ones who do it trying to prove to the unknown masses how smart they are, then proceed to say the stupidest things in their comments afterwards. If they bother you, or my treatment of them does, i just have to assume you're new to the internet?
Just because I don't like the way you're talking to someone, even if it's over the internet, doesn't mean I'm an FNG. I was merely making a comment on politeness, which you seem to lack...
Im very polite and respectful, to those who deserve it. Its just been my experience that people who make comments like the aforementioned "Actually..." one and people who try to police the internet, feeling holier than thou, and interjecting their presumed morals into a conversation without adding anything to it... dont deserve respect.
Thats true, but, like with respect, i only show the politeness shown to me and others around me. My whole original point was that the "actually" comment was rude in and of itself to begin with. Rude, inaccurate and poorly spelled. I admire your ability to stick up for the masses, but you're definitely in the wrong. My treatment of him was a decision on my part, whether it was wrong or not is totally subjective. You're attempt to correct me however was just... well... out of your jurisdiction.
@ImAHumanBeeing Well, if it helps, I also believe that people who reply to a comment over 2 years old that had nothing at all to do with them and yet they still don't add anything to the conversation should get the hell off of the Internet as well. We are far too tolerant of stupidity on internet comment pages and forums and it is starting to spill over into "IRL".
@tjs8n didn't see the date cause youtube was acting up pretty hard to me so, bitch about it some more will ya? I can't see much of a conversation if all you did your comment was bitch about his spelling and grammar.
@ImAHumanBeeing Read the comment from PancamoXXL that has too many negative votes. It was the one I was replying to...In 2009... when I made the comment... =P
Doesn't that mean that the father is a sense offender, because look at all those illegal portraits, frames, and room decor. All signs of a sense offender.
yeah, you guys can find all the tiny infractions in the choreography. But it's still the coolest and most unique fight scene i've seen in a long time.
at 49-51 you can see that preston has his arm twisted but then its twisted back so that the gun is pointed to the other guy's heart. WHY DOESNT HE JUST SHOOT THEN
You can't honestly read to much in t the choreography in this movie, I counted about fourteen different times when the main character could have made killshots, they really could have designed the moves better.
(Yeah, he does.) Why did they stop putting in the shooting effects starting at 0:45? You just hear *CLICK*CLICK*CLICK* and don't see the blast of the shot...
I think during this fight they both also showed their skills to eachother and not only wanted to just kill, that is wy they didn't used some chances to hit the enemy and they had a lot of chances
I always wondered about that room. It was clear he was a sense offender, but like in the last scene none of those clerics seemed to care. Frickin abuse of power!
if you shoot him on the head in the moment he could i would lose time and the other one could shoot him in the same time, that's why they exected the right moment, when one of them can aim the other without any risk....that's why they didn't shoot each other before....think before write
yeah, but they were moving really really fast though, and not just moving they were also making darn sure the other person couldnt hit em, and getting their hands smacked outta da way everytime they could fire.
the Father is a leader, not someone who invented the gun kata, hes just... a human with feelings, plus Preston is waay more experienced with dis techniqye, so the father didnt have a chance. thats why the fight was short..
weak? it was really good. thats the way movies should end. they shoot the bad guy. it mightve been a bit weak if he had just shot him while they were fighting over position to fire
How come the technique doesn't involve pistol-whipping in close quarters? There were plenty of opportunities in that hand swapping sequence where one could have used the barrel on the side of his head. It's not as elegant but it adds an extra challenge.
Awesome movie, but slo-mo shows that Gun Kata is just a cool choreographie, both of them have many chances of shooting each other. But that wouldn't be cool, huh? ;-)
I'm a martial artist and I absolutly loves this. Its so different then the normal hand to hand / bow staff / whatever fighting that its refreshing. How badass would it be if someone could do this for a martial arts "creative" form.
yeah, too bad all martial arts movies aren't realistic, but I guess no one knew that?
It's a movie... gun kata is just entertainment. It's a different approach to martial arts/ action films. It's also too bad people like you became tough the day we invented the internet.
Yeah, you must be a REAL martial artist. Whether you are or not, if looking at GunKata annoys you, perhaps you should, oh, I dunno, IGNORE IT? Remember, your "knowledge" on the internet will get you nowhere, because most people do not care. Second, wikipedia doesnt make YOU any more intelligent. You're just being a parrot. Schwing.
**disclaimer**
Most of the above posted was bullshit. I dont take this seriously. Pie.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This has to be the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Why not just stand three feet back and plug the guy? Better yet, shoot him in the kneecap so he can't move, THEN try to shoot him in the face. What a joke of a movie.
The're obliviously not taking a step back to shoot because then the other guy would have the same chance to shoot unhindered. And since you would be the one taking a step back he will be the first one to take a shot. Just because you cant understand the film doesnt make it a "joke".
besides it makes more sense IMO than "dodging bullets faster than the eye can see" by doing nothing more than leaning backwards and falling on your back. *cough* the matrix *cough*
It obviously looks brilliant and Bale is my hero but there are about 15 occasions where either one could killed the other!!!! Pedantic I know buy hey!!!
just my opinion but slo mo made it worse. not better Rezelhorne. you could clearly see that that was close to the speed it was actually shot at. hence the expressions and the "slappiness".
equilibrium was a great flick though - i've never forgotten those opening lines...
this is really great acctuly ive tryied to track the movments of thei scene a few time but its really fast but in this it looks like it would if it was a rehearsly its great
Its fiction man, fiction... In their universe, gun kata users dodge bullets, so frikken what, its a fiction movie. You dont see soldiers in Saving pvt Ryan doing gun kata, cos its a realistic movie, its meant to be accurate. If you dont like the scene why bother posting?
i think this isnt fighting, this is perfect dancing.

No, they would have wasted ammo and then died. Just like fighters getting tired too quickly in a fight, only shoot when you think it's right. The idea is that they are THAT damn good at blocking gunfire.

The first person to try and run is the first person to get shot. If you try and back up the other guy will follow to block your shots.

He should have kept the katana.
The fight would be over much sooner.

Awesome movie, but slo-mo shows that Gun Kata is just a cool choreographie, both of them have many chances of shooting each other. But that wouldn't be cool, huh? ;-)

Well slowing down the action just let us see how unrealistic it is and I say that, though this is one of my favorite movies at all!
Turning is just movie-choreography

I'm a martial artist and I absolutly loves this. Its so different then the normal hand to hand / bow staff / whatever fighting that its refreshing. How badass would it be if someone could do this for a martial arts "creative" form.

yeah, too bad all martial arts movies aren't realistic, but I guess no one knew that?
It's a movie... gun kata is just entertainment. It's a different approach to martial arts/ action films. It's also too bad people like you became tough the day we invented the internet.

Christian Bale does a great job, although that villain guy looked scared.

Actually, I think I'll go back to watching REAL martial arts movies, like "Enter the Dragon".
ddv13devo 4 years ago
Yeah, you must be a REAL martial artist. Whether you are or not, if looking at GunKata annoys you, perhaps you should, oh, I dunno, IGNORE IT? Remember, your "knowledge" on the internet will get you nowhere, because most people do not care. Second, wikipedia doesnt make YOU any more intelligent. You're just being a parrot. Schwing.

Most of the above posted was bullshit. I dont take this seriously. Pie.

I always wanted to see this scene in slow motion with the audio intact. It's a whole new experience watching it at this speed. Thanks for posting!

This has to be the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Why not just stand three feet back and plug the guy? Better yet, shoot him in the kneecap so he can't move, THEN try to shoot him in the face. What a joke of a movie.
ddv13devo 4 years ago
The're obliviously not taking a step back to shoot because then the other guy would have the same chance to shoot unhindered. And since you would be the one taking a step back he will be the first one to take a shot. Just because you cant understand the film doesnt make it a "joke".

besides it makes more sense IMO than "dodging bullets faster than the eye can see" by doing nothing more than leaning backwards and falling on your back. *cough* the matrix *cough*

Oh, I understand the film. I understand it's a low budget ripoff of the Matrix, with poor acting and fight choreography.

Seriously the slow-motion made them look sooooo gay. I suggest you guys just watch it with its original speed (or with a little more speed).

just my opinion but slo mo made it worse. not better Rezelhorne. you could clearly see that that was close to the speed it was actually shot at. hence the expressions and the "slappiness".
equilibrium was a great flick though - i've never forgotten those opening lines...

Its fiction man, fiction... In their universe, gun kata users dodge bullets, so frikken what, its a fiction movie. You dont see soldiers in Saving pvt Ryan doing gun kata, cos its a realistic movie, its meant to be accurate. If you dont like the scene why bother posting?
