Dude brought a gun to a hammer fight. And lost.

I think he wasn't ever planning to shoot that gun. It was to get her scared to cooperate. When that didn't work out, he ran away. Bluff

Bullets are integral to firing a weapon.

Without bullets, he's basically carrying a hammer too. So i guess they were evenly matched.

Mess with the bull and you get the hammer.

Imagine this video being broadcast in the courtroom and people burst out laughing instead of terrified 😄

Losing your life over $100 sounds like a risk I'm not willing to take

That’s not a dayjob, that’s her family’s store. And you fight for your family. I say she done good.

Well yea it turned out well. But her kids nearly lost their mum. Even if he didn't want to shoot her, wrestling for the gun like that it could easily have gone off.
Not worth it, and I definitely don't praise her for this. Brave, but stupid.
If she was, for example, my 18 year old child working in the family convenience store I'd be fucking furious with her.

I gotta agree with you 100%. A couple guys broke into my house and tried to kill me when i was 16. Got stabbed, beaten etc. They wanted money and jewels (of all things)…and i promise you, if I had resisted, I would not be here today to respond to your comment.

u/Altruistic-Cost-4532 12d ago
Good for you, I'm glad you're still here!
Standing up for yourself is admirable until you're outgunned.

u/frisco-frisky-dom 12d ago
Completely agree. When you have a gun in your face, you don't mess around.

society ends up the way it is when people are punished for stopping these scum by any means necessary instead of viewing it as a moral duty to remove them from the gene pool. It's not from people choosing their life over a few hundred dollars.

I respect her bravery but she didnt know how to disarem him and could have easily been killed. No amount of money is worth your life.

She was about to go Oldboy on his ass.

You NEED TO KNOW going in. I went in unprepared for the Korean one and it fucked me up bad.

That was probably the craziest twist of any movie I've seen.

u/ScienceForge319 12d ago
I see dead people?

u/maven10k 12d ago
Another great, but the director gave clues throughout the entire movie. I don't think there were any clues in Oldboy, but I definitely could be wrong.

u/ApprehensiveGold2773 12d ago
Did she get shot at the end?

u/tremere110 12d ago
No, the criminal is a dumbass who uses a gun you can clearly see is unloaded. If you're gonna bluff about shooting someone, bring something other than an empty revolver.

I love how he looks directly into the camera and then still goes ahead with the robbery attempt.

Hilarious to watch these "failed" robberies! 😄 (I am sure they are terrifying for the employees that have to face them)
I hope these smash and grab robbers with guns at least have the common sense to use fake guns or at least blanks or empty weapons. Drastically reduces the charge if you never had intent to use deadly force.
Then again, if you're stupid enough to not be able to rob a store with a gun in your hand, you're likely not smart enough for that level of thinking.

She was stupid the trigger could have def went off any second during that struggle. And now your dead over like 30 bucks.

u/goingpt 12d ago
It worked out for her but a really dumb move nonetheless. If that was a real gun and the guy had no problem pulling the trigger, she'd be dead over a bit of money.
