Bad guy says, "One wrong move and I'll slit her throat." Then they get a bullet in the head, and more often than not, the hostage gets out fine or with a far less than fatal neck nick. The conclusion to Lacus Litore was awful, and I hate it. It was not a good scene in anyway, shape, or form.
I'm no expert here, but hitting a target square in the head when they are holding a hostage is extremely difficult and is the kind of move, even if successful, would put you in a situation of due process for taking unnecessary risks. To think that this has to be the go to solution means you are watching too many unrealistic movies and video games that have changed your perception of real life.
