The funniest ones usually show actors with suppressed M4s jetting out Huge CGI muzzle flames
CGI has killed the motion picture experience for me. Pretty much why I can't sit through the movies with the Marvel or DC "Universe" comic book characters. The last movie that actually used real stunts,
Live Free or Die Hard, with that scene where Willis launches a car at a helicopter, was so well done and clearly not CGI. I get that CGI is way cheaper than working out stunts, especially involving motor vehicle, boats and aircraft, but it's killing movies in general.
CGI effects for depictions of firearms use and explosion suck.
In The Greatest Story Ever Told, Wayne's character, as the Centurion on Calvary, sounds like, well, John Wayne. At least he doesn't refer to the crucified Savior as 'Pilgrim'.

It's great that Wayne made
True Grit and
The Shootist, so he could leave the legacy of playing deeply flawed characters, demonstrating that he actually could act, and bring memorable characters to life.
I was watching a recent cop/thriller/action pic on one of the HBO channels late at night; while it was a decent, fairly gritty and (to me) fairly accurate depiction of some stuff cops deal with, the one major action scene with an intense shootout occurring in broad daylight had huge muzzle flashes -- I mean, major major sunbursts, like 3 or 4 feet in diameter -- from Glock pistols and one submachine gun. The only screenwriter/director/producer Hollywood should allow to film gun fight scenes is Michael Mann.
