O atirador português

The plot was simple and the acting OK, but overall I really enjoyed this movie. The lead actor was cast perfectly. He is strong in every role I have seen him in. All in all it was a good movie. Worth watching.

The plot may be familiar, the premise of having two snipers as the protagonists is interesting. There are some exciting moments, cool camera tricks and even some genuine tension. The problems i found in the movie is the lack of action, only in the end we really see it, and the rebel leader was not well used, nor did he look like a real leader, he looks like a guy walking through the forest shooting, the soldiers who accompanied him had the immersive style of that environment. In addition, it is a good short because the budget was very low, and they managed to bring us a little of what would be a great Portuguese adventure in the world of snipers.

7/10

It's well paced.there are no spots that drag, i wasn't bored for a minute, and the two lead actors Rui Constantino and Pedro Pinecross work well off each other. Both are very well suited for this particular role and were very convincing. A good start and i hope that post-credits scene means we´re getting a sequel.

Portuguese Sniper is an 8/10

The locations where awesome, the action was great. The screenplay works to some degree but fails to make certain connections clear and answer some questions. Who is this mercenary sniper ? Who is the main enemy that send this mercenary to kill the rebel leader ? Maybe in a sequel we´ll get the answers. As for music in general it´s decent, the main actors, music, action and camera-work are fun but it's all brainless.

This movie definitely has a B-movie "look" to it. Great action from the first to the last frame, it´s well-paced, fraught with suspense, like any other hollywood sniper movie. As a lower budget action movie this served it's purpose well.
