I felt like I was re-watching the movie Shooter for the most part. No innovation, no suspense, no real intrigue, no surprises...Not talking bout the acting and the dialogues as there was really nothing noteworthy on this front as well. Just a n average random movie to watch when one has 90 minutes to kill.
Story is well but presentation is average though it would have many chances to make interesting movie. However it not bad too, once time watchable. Some sequences like fight Between Beckett and Lady Death and investigation by Mr. Zero are interesting. Michael Jonson impressed us with his height and deadly grip (Remember me 'Billa' (Manik Irani) in Bollywood) . Last snipping scene by father of Beckett is with full of thrill. Watch at once with not much expectations then you will enjoy this thrilling ride of spy drama.
For a while I thought I'd been transported back to the 80's.
With a decent story poorly executed, weak direction, cheesy script and atrocious soundtrack this was the sort of thing you hired from blockbuster for 99p for a week.
Mildly entertaining, straight to VHS fodder.

What can I say.... watched it to the end, did not hit fast forward at anytime, but it was no masterpiece. A B-grade movie
I found the dialogue and scene flow poor. Difficult to relate to the characters. Mostly just action. Found the story line very predictable... no surprises.
The tactical errors done by police were far too many for me to mention in goofs on this page. For example, swat teams entering a kill zone at almost shoulder to shoulder distancing. Only remotely resembled how real police conduct themselves in a combat zone. This is the worst of Sniper series.

The "Sniper" franchise is a known commodity now, and although "Sniper: Assassin's End" is a step down from "Sniper: Ultimate Kill" and the others that have come before it, right back to the Billy Zane original, Chad Michael Collins' fifth outing as Brandon Beckett has some good action sequences both with and without rifles and is a chance for Brandon to team up with his somewhat-estranged old man, Thomas Beckett (Tom Berenger) and do what they do best.
At times, the Beckett's were secondary to the characters of Special Agent Zeke "Zero" Rosenberg and the mysterious assassin Doctor Death - as though the powers-that-be were using "Assassin's End" as a backdoor spin-off. They were both good characters, but give me more of the Beckett's, please!
Enjoyable, nonetheless.

Did you know
- TriviaThe scene with Brandon Beckett playing video games was the very first scene filmed on day 1 of production.
- GoofsThe Opening scene shows the woman sniper shooting, and shows the shot hole through the hotel window. No sniper would shoot through the glass at the firing point as that would damage the bullet and prevent any kind of predictable bullet path at long range. Even shooting a window at the target side is generally avoidable, since , unless the target is standing right behind the window pane.. the bullet will deflect on the window impact.
