Better Then Most

Rating: 8/10 (23 September 2008)

Well, what can I say about Shooter? A politically charged thriller rolled up in an action packed 2 hour blast-o-rama. A little too rolled up. If the director's original intentions were to make the action movie with serious political motivations he succeeded and failed in equal measures. You can feel the political under-tones in several spots but then over-blown action rolls over and kills it. When it seems like it's going to go deeper and it does seem like it too; Marky Mark and co. blow s*** up and kill heaps of people putting you off the trail. While it did succeed in making a better action movie then most in the market, it still lacks but what do you expect. If you want to sit down for 2 hours and watch explosions this will satisfy and make you feel smart. Knock yourself out. *** out of *****
