Best movie ever!

Admirable film.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

If you like the genre, it is a choice. if not, it is predictable, unrealistic and far by title. a soldier and his revenge story. and nothing more. except Billy Zane lost in an ambiguous character skin. it is decent because it seems be more than a film around a pretext. the desire of actors to give a reasonable story is the lead good point. not enough . because the hilarious scenes and the desire to be touching not in the most inspired way.

"Sgt Brandon Beckett" (Chad Michael Collins) is a young non-commissioned officer in the United States Marine Corp who has been assigned to a United Nations command in the Congo to help deter rebel aggression. Unfortunately, when his squad is wiped out by a lone sniper during an evacuation mission, he feels guilt at being the only survivor and is determined to find and kill the man responsible. To do that, however, he not only must disobey orders but he also needs the assistance of a man named "Richard Miller" (Billy Zane) who served with his father many years ago. But unknown to either of them there is a traitor within the U.N. command which makes the odds against them even more difficult. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that I thought that this was an adequate movie for the most part with a good overall plot and plenty of action. However, I thought that using a court-martial as an underlying theme was both rudimentary and unnecessary. But even so I thought that this film was slightly better than its predecessor and I have rated it accordingly. Average.

Did no one ask what happened to Thomas Beckett? Did he die in 1-3 and I missed it? The weapons handling made even the actors playing Marines look like insane gang members! Billy Zane was OK and his character well aged. The plot was full of holes,like where was all the com gear on the initial mission? No medics? Why would the Plantation Owner agree to leave given what was still in the home? In an age of wars around the world how can a war movie be so lacking in realistic portrayals of those that wage war? The brief and unneeded love seen was well.. sad. Also please note..the shot through the scope thing is not only OLD it is not possible with the scope used in the movie....The hint at a new series of movies caused me to rise from my recliner and yell at my wife's dog! A major in a dress navy uniform? He tells the investigation panel he slept with an officer on the panel? As a Vet and avid shooter this movie offended and disgusted me. Please make no more if this is the best effort possible. May I recommend perhaps a Sniper TV show with Billy Zane and a monkey side kick instead?

I was about to write a detailed review on this but Matt-441 said it all... i totally agree with him.... with no super-duper stars, this movie really hits the very best of Genre in recent times... Me, i like movies where i can go inside the screen and be in the movie. I didn't move an inch watching this one...Script was well written, acting was way above average.. sound effects are key to the sniper movies, sound rocked in this movie!!!... what else?? scenery... it is based in Africa so what not to expect? beautiful views of jungle, Elephants, Rhinos, Giraffes etc... it is worth watching in short...
