Shooter

2007-Action
Mark Walberg/Danny Glubber

Do you remember a time when Motorola's "Razr" just came out? It was different, unique, and actually rocked with its innovations, then a few months later EVERYONE owns one, its hard to identify one Razr to another. Much like the way of the over abundant Mobile phone, this movie should be the same.
Shooter had all the right equipment to be a hit, but due to this generations obsession with 'Military Action' films it is lost in the dust as an after thought.

Synopsis:
After a successful mission gone wrong, Swagger (Walberg) gave up the military life and disappear into the mountains. 3 years pass by and the government needs his expertise, as the wolds greatest Sniper, to plan an Assassination attempt of our nations president to prevent an actual threat. Things go wrong as this simple Job, turns into a conspiracy and a game of cat vs. mouse.

All-in-All:
This film was defiantly worth a rental.
It showed in great detail of what a sniper needs to account for the actual field, and the performance of Mark Walberg was.... the same Mark Walberg in Italian Job, 3 Kings, and the rest of his movies. Well crafted action scenes, but the real applaud for this film is the use of panoramic camera use, and placing a constant build up for the audience, the execution itself takes 1/2 a second, but the planning and how to is gripping.

Riko's Rating: B-
