Weapons and Gadgets Used In Action Films

film examples I'm am going to look at are Batman and James Bond

The type of weapons used in action films obviously vary depending on what type of action is being portrayed in the film.

Batman

In the Batman films they use very unusual weapons and are weapons that help them selves instead of hurting their enemies, such as the Baterang which is just a simple coiled rope attached to the bat symbol use to save himself from fall and to swing away from enemies, this would be found attached to his suit, The suit has also carried on different occasions a re-breather device, flash and gas grenades, explosives and a detonator, lockpicks, a signaling device for the Batmobile, electronic surveillance equipment (including video camera and monitor), a forensic kit for gathering crime scene evidence, a medical kit, a small toolkit, a cache of money and, in early incarnations, a pistol in a holster. Weapons like this me and Dan will not be able to use because of time and what is available to use and money!

James Bond

In James Bond the weapons used are generally the kind of weapons you would normally associate with a Action film. e.g Pistols, machine guns etc

But being a Spy for the British government he had his fair share of gadgets.

InDr. No, Bond's sole gadgets were a Geiger Counter and a wristwatch with a luminous (andradioactive) face. The gadgets, however, assumed a higher profile in the 1964 film Goldfinger. The film's success encouraged further espionage equipment from Q Branch to be supplied to Bond. In the opinion of critics, some Bond films have included too many gadgets and vehicles, such as 1979's science-oriented Moonraker and 2002's Die Another Day.

Looking at the types of Weapons and gadgets used in action films we will struggle to find the correct weapons and even if we did I believe we will find it hard to prevent it from looking professional and make it look a little bit tacky as it wont be easy to pull off!
