The Sniper
Okay gonna do a flashback here to the year 1993 for the movie The Sniper starring Tom Berenger and Billy Zane. Tom Bereneger known for Major League and Billy Zane known for being the jerk of a fiance to Kate Winslet in Titanic. Story follows United State Marine Sniper Thomas Beckett and Swat Sharpshooter Richard Miller as they attempt to assassinate a Panamanian general. The inexperienced Miller must overcome his hesitancy of actually killing someone to achieve the mission. When only half the mission is complete Beckett decides to stay in finish the mission alone after a new deadly fight with Miller. Miller returns only to find that Beckett has been captured and his being tortured. In the end Miller saves Beckett and they both manage to escape from the jungle alive. While the movies doesn't go into a lot of detail on how to actually be a sniper it is a very enjoyable movie. If your wanting something that will teach you watch the beginning of Shooter and if your looking for something light this is definitely not for you. While it is an action movie there isn't a whole lot of action and what action there is, is spread throughout the movie. So if you dig action or military movies this is a good watch. Overall score 7.5/10
