Mark Wahlberg dominates almost the whole film

Rating: 9/10 (1 October 2007)

I was like I would hear that "Shooter" is same as "Jackal". Yeah, Shooter starts with this familiar subject and but the film shows that it is a big mistake comparing with "Jackal". In fact the director gives us some clues that sergeant Bob Lee Swagger is called out for this aim. But the film turns to a different shape differing from "Jackal". Bob Lee Swagger who is fighting for USA in Africa is now in his house to seclude himself because of losing his partner in Africa. He is deceived with the feeling of patriotism and he is wanted to develop a possible assassination plan to the president to prevent the real one. Colonel lsaac Johnson who is inside dirty works in Africa with a high level senator Charles Meachum persuades Swagger. Swagger works for that in such manners which will make him number one suspicious after the assassination. In fact assassination isn't against the president, it is against headpriest of an African's country because of the wish of destroying assassination reasons. Like everyone Swagger doesn't realise the real fact and moreover he is charged with the assassination because of his perfect assassination plan and he finds himself in a well-designed trap.
The technical details got me amazed and I especially admire visual effects producer. According to me starting and finishing scenes are very important for a film to deserve good comments. "Shooter" already deserves that. I think Antoine Fuqua did a good job with "Shooter" and I will be waiting for the other ones to follow his line. Musics are also so creative.
Let me talk to some players. As I said above Mark Wahlberg dominates almost the whole film. I don't remember such a film that Wahlberg completely carried it to the summit himself. But it is unjustice not to talk about Danny Glover's performance. As Colonel lsaac Johnson, Danny Glover really does his best. Michael Pena also fits in with beginner agent role and his role's form changes after assassination.
Pointing my words, I touch on gun specialist's, crippled man's and Senator's talkings. These are all about USA's acts all around the world. USA people, I call out to you. Give ear these words and don't believe the people who govern you any more. Why? Because, there was no mass-destruction weapons in Iraq where people are hungry appeared during the invasion. Abu-Ghraib is not a terrorist capturing central where most innocent people is jailed. In fact, most important points that I will remember about the film are thoses.
As a summary, "Shooter" is a top-class film and surely watch it.
