Physics of a bullet (Spoiler)


When Mel Gibson shoots the dead tattoo dude at the end a second time, shouldnt his body react against the bullet? His dead body did not move an inch, but there has to be some reaction against the bullet and his body should have moved.

I heard the impact in the target is the same as the recoil of the shooter's hand.
Small caliber gun + big mass of flesh = little effect.

Nope. They actually got that exactly right. You watch too many movies.
