I think the only time I have ever shouted at the screen in a movie theater was watching Enemy at the Gates and seeing Ed Harris, armed with an 8mm Mauser, in a protracted standoff with an unarmed Jude Law who has taken cover from this full power rifle behind a rusty old oven :lol:

Like guns that go "click click" when the slide is locked back or where they rack the same shotgun every few seconds, but still have a full mag..or worse, when they creep up on someone they want to shoot..and rack the friggin thing..
You should see the abysmal gun handling depicted on foreign TV...that's even worse.

S/A's are another example, the good/bad guy always waits until the last moment and then chambers a round. WTF? I would have done that half an hour before if I was planning to creep up on someone.
I notice I have taken to pushing the slide back slightly to check the first round is chambered, no idea where I got that from!
