Spartan
And also the TV series "The Unit". I think it helps to have a Delta guy on hand as the technical advisor. And the writer. And the assistant director. That does help.
Seriously, WOTG was a great movie, and I sat there for like ten minutes after it ended just staring at the black screen, wondering the same things: how the F did those guys get so good, and be such total losers. It takes discipline and training to get really proficient at that sort of shooting, so why is the rest of their life dorked up?
Anyway, with the exception of a couple of post-production SNAFUs, Spartan was pretty great. The same guy (Mamet) did The Unit, and the airplane takedown was basically textboox handgunning in close quarters. (I would have brought an MP5, but I'm not Delta.)
