Tombstone is probably the BEST movie overall with the best gunfights, , the OK coral is probably the best histrical reinactment..
but it was cut bad.
even then, it was STILL better than Kostners..
BUT, the best sound effects to a good gun fight..( other than private Ryan) was Open Range.
if you've never heard it in dolby surround, you're missing out..
although i THINK the MOST realistic one i've ever seen was Matewan..
it's also historical.
but the way it was done, made it the most frightening gun fight i've ever seen.
brutal, plain, and no bravado..
but Johnny Ringo vs Doc probably is the best gunfight i've ever seen..
the tension was right up there..
and the lines were perfect.
the landing at D Day and the village battle of ryan was almost enough for me to go into shock..
i can imagine how many vets from that war had some problems with that.
thanks for the list, there are some movies mentioned here that i will HAVE to look up.
