You've never seen real video of someone being shot?
With a handgun, usually nothing happens. At least nothing dramatic. The person often doesn't even realize they've been shot. They may react with a defensive posture, but mostly they just stand there not quite sure what happened. Eventually, they realize they've actually been shot and slowly drop to the ground. Eventually, blood pressure drops and they start getting woozy and passing out.
Not all all like you see in movies/TV. Typically, you only get an immediate reaction if the bullet strikes the spinal cord or brain. Even people who have been shot thru the heart have been known to keep going for awhile.
