Sniper: Ultimate Kill

As a stand alone movie this is average fare, nothing more.

The sniper scenes lack any real tension and its all very predictable.

Honestly though, how many more movies does this dodgy franchise need?

Is it trying to become Police Academy???

The seventh 'Sniper' franchise movie (the original was released way back in 1994 and I bet you they had no idea the characters from that film would be popping up twenty-three years later!) and the fourth to star Chad Michael Collins as Brandon Beckett, son of the legendary sniper from the original movie. Collins has really made the starring role his own.

'Sniper: Ultimate Kill' is the first movie to feature the trio of Brandon Beckett, his father Thomas (Tom Berenger) and Richard Miller (Billy Zane).

If you've enjoyed the previous instalments in this franchise, you're going to enjoy this one. Plenty of no-frills sniper action, a little intrigue, and the added bonus of seeing the original 'Sniper' stars reunited.

Sure, the uniforms might not be right, Brandon Beckett shouldn't have facial hair because he's a Marine, acting is sometimes a little wooden and the dialogue sometimes a little cliched, and there are plot holes so big you could drive a tank through them...but it's entertaining and true to the previous six movies.

Did not expected to enjoy this movie.

Good acting by Chad, Janay, billy Zane, and Tom and antagonist sniper.

Good production values for a DTV movie, couple of good action scenes with sniper tension.

Overall nice watch.

Having been watching the "Sniper" movies since the very first movie, which I had on VHS. Then I have been more and more disappointed as the franchise progressed.

This 2017 addition to the franchise was actually the better of the last couple of "Sniper" movies.

Sure the plot was predictable, but the acting was good and the action was good. So that made it up for the movie having a very generic and straight forward plot.

The sniping sequences were especially good, which did add a lot of flavor to the movie.

The special effects in "Sniper: Ultimate Kill" were quite good, and I had not expect to see this kind of graphic violence in a movie such as this.

I was genuinely surprised and entertained with this movie.

It was quite interesting to have both Billy Zane and Tom Berenger return to reprise the two characters whom started the franchise, despite they did nothing more than just stand around and talk. Would have been a nice treat to have them return to the field as snipers.

It's a great action movie, great cinematography, great editing, strong acting performance and a goo enough story. It's not like El Sicario or Miami Vice by far, but it's doing its entertaining job to keep viewers watching it without any break the whole movie.
