    ridiculous and boring!

    Segal and a gang of old hairy special ops get caught in Taliban fight an dfight and fight and then report to a colonel old enough to have fought at gettysburg! And a girl with baby who is daughter of Taliban cheif and more fighting and more moe fighting and Seagal mumbles hi sway through it all and men are dying left and right and up and down and... Oh dear this really is a boring film. I stayed watching to end because my neighbours had a party and I couldn't go to bed.

    Sniper : special ops w/out sniper

    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.

    Not worth the time.

    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.

    I want my hour and a half back!

    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.

    What did I just try and watch

    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.

    • Trivia
      Though Steven Seagal is the only one on the poster and is top billed he only appears in the movie for 10 minutes.
    • Goofs
      The team decides to repair broken truck. As both trucks are only partially loaded and there are several people available, it would be far more efficient and less risky to position the trucks back to back, load the ammo and fuel onto the working truck, and leave the scene. LTC Jackson ordered Vic to destroy whatever they couldn't bring back, clearly implying that the goal of the mission to prevent the materiel from being captured, and that Vic should not put his men at risk trying to recover it.
