Take a look and you'll see why. Also, what is the definition of "warfare"; does it have to be sanctioned by the governments of countries? If not, then the first question is oxymoronic.
Films are usually fit into categories or genres: comedy, drama, westerns,
horror, war, and so on. These categories are usually in the background
of my mind when I make comments about movies or review them. It would be
unfair to pit war movies against other categories concerning the question
I asked; that's why I made that distinction. I realize there are "gang-
warfare" films and westerns that feature large conficts, like the U.S.
Army vs the indians, where many bullets fly around; but they just don't
compete with large scale military conflicts like WWI,WW2,Korea,Vietnam,etc.
BTW, have you seen "The Gauntlet" and compared it to "Hard Boiled" in
bullet terms?
Yes, we're talking about one bus vs. an entire hospital and arms warehouse. "Hard Boiled" probably beats out "Saving Private Ryan" in blanks and squibs used.
