A good movie with squad tactics is Sabotage.

Street Kings has a house clearing scene and it's a Keanu movie.

Edit: Changed my mind about Equilibrium.

I’ve seen equilibrium and not what I’m looking for. Almost reminds me of “Shoot Em Up” because it’s wild.

When working with fiction there is only so much that can be believed. So you're best bet isovie versions of real life stories. Can I ask why movies? YouTube or other video share sites probably have actual police and military training videos. Are you wanting to learn or looking for entertainment that doesn't break immersion?

I’m looking for movies (or TV shows) where they spent some time researching proper handling of firearms. I’m not looking for training on YouTube.

There are movies with some fantastical entertainment, then there are movies with a high level of realism. I love both, just looking to find the latter.

Something like “shoot em up” is entertaining, but a stretch from reality

The trick of Equilibrium's gunplay was to sell something every bit as if not more unrealistic than John Woo's shootouts, as something that feels sciency and clinically realistic. It's great style and it works but it is entirely unrealistic.
