Shooter

Rating: 8/10 (25 April 2011)

I choose to do a review on the film Shooter made in 2007. This action thriller is very exciting and one of my favorite films. Throughout the film there are a lot of parts that will put you to the edge of your seat and leave you waiting to see whats going to happen next. I like how it puts you in the perspective of being a trained tactical sniper and how their minds work. For example, Swagger is left in charge of figuring out how the president was going to be shot at in the beginning of the movie, he takes you through all the places where he would preform this assassination until he figures out where it is going to be done from. I think this is a very unique perspective to have in a movie and like how they have done it in this film. Bob Lee Swagger really was acted out good and I liked his character a lot. He was really smart and could think on his feet really well, this made the movie interesting because it was always cool to see how he was going to get himself out of tight situations, or the next thing he was going to do to see why he was being framed. Also there was a lot of action throughout the film, there was a lot of gun scenes and some very good explosions that were really realistic. In the scene where Swagger is ambushing the cabin it almost makes you feel like your there because of how realistic it is and how the cameras are being angled.
Overall on a scale of 1 to 10 I would give this film and 8 there was good acting and kept me watching through out the whole film, it was very good. This film makes you think and i like that in a movie. There are a lot of thrilling moments in this action packed movie and is sure it keep you at the edge of your seat.
