Sniper Special Ops

Yet another in a long succession of horrible straight-to-video movies by Seagal of late. At least there were no CGI bullet holes in this one. What I don't understand is why producers can't hire a decent military consultant when shooting a war movie. Jeff Bosley (Doc) is a Green Beret, how he didn't die laughing during the filming is beyond me. Firearm handling is absolutely ridiculous, Rob Van Dam clearly has never fired a long gun before in his life. Charlene Amoia, who claims to be an "expert marksman" holds a pistol like it's a personal massager (wink-wink).

You see an assortment of optics on the team's rifles (ACOG, Aimpoint, Eotech) but the funniest is a tiny RDS on Segal's rifle that has superimposed hash marks when looking through it in Seagal's first- person view. Absurd.

Overall, horrible low-budget B-flick with bad story, horrible acting and a huge number of blunders. Save yourself some time and DO NOT watch it.

Top billed Seagal who is so fat, he can only sit and stand, while his words are meant to sound tough only come across as out of breath from doing nothing. Movie is slow paced with lots of gunfire.

Sensei Segeal why are you still trying to do movies? I mean your character has never changed one bit in the last 35 years. Its the same thing every time... please stop. please stop making this crap. Its embarrassing. Go back to the bayou and take your fake accent with you. You probably are a much better cop than you are at acting. Movie was so bad it doesnt even quality to be put on VHS cassette.

The first scene looked quite promising, but after that, It's so bad it's horrible.

The sniper rifle is only used during this first scene, after that Seagal use an automatic rifle and he doesn't even bother to aim ; he sprays bullets at random in a prerecorded sequence that is used again and again.

Actually, Seagal doesn't do much ; he babysits his comrade from a safe place, for the major part of the movie, while another lame movie is playing with Rob Vandamme and an annoying spoilt journalist who can do it all.

Sniper:Special ops, is a low cost and boring movie that use a guest star to sell copies, but don't ask too much from them.

I like alot of Seagal DTV flicks & consider some of them "Gems" like his Driven to Kill,Pistol Whipped,A Dangerous Man & Belly of the Beast. Unfortunately as we all know, with some decent one's we also get the absolute Trash ones like: Attack Force,A Good Man,Shadow Man,Black Dawn & Sniper.

We all know Seagal isn't a good actor but we watch him for the old school brutal vigilante Justice he does to the scum of the world, that's his appeal as we grew up watching him & just enjoy watching his beat the crap outta bad guys. Here in this pile of poop, Seagal is a boring Sniper that sits around & it's just a weird & boring Iraq based war drama. Weird that Seagal was in this & even weirder that he produced it? Like i said i do enjoy alot of Seagal's DTV output but this one was boring & Seagal was a side character & i turned it off halfway through. Just a crappy one of his huge output
