I watched this on a bootleg site that was all written in Arabic. The copy of the DVD had Arabic subtitles. I couldn't help wondering how that audience receives a movie like this, let alone do they enjoy watching it? Maybe they don't care, they just pirate the movies and make their money.Anyway, I've been out of the "Sniper" loop since about the second one (What are we on now? 12?) so I needed to do a little catching up. I have to say that this wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Sure the visual fx were pretty cheesy and the dialog was, at times, embarrassing. But over all it far surpassed anything Steven Seagal has done in the last decade or so (with the possible exception of The Cockpuncher) So, in doing a little research I discovered that just about anyone associated with these films is either trying to get a career started or pretending their career isn't yet over.There was, in fact some decent acting. You can tell a good actor when he delivers the cheesiest line in a way that almost makes you believe him (or her)But the one overlying factor was that whenever Dennis Haysbert was on screen I kept expecting him to say, "That's Allstate's stand. Are you in good hands?"

This is probably one of the best sniper movies to come along in a long time. The acting, cinematography, photography and the music were all sensational and quite engaging. The locations where awesome and I'm now inspired to go and watch the complete series. The action was great and I felt like I was watching real snipers. Great job to everyone involved. This is the best sniper movie.Elite snipers Brandon Beckett (Chad Michael Collins) and Richard Miller (Billy Zane) tasked with protecting a gas pipeline from terrorists looking to make a statement. When battles with the enemy lead to snipers being killed by a ghost shooter who knows their exact location, tensions boil as a security breach is suspected. Elite snipers Brandon Beckett doubt to have someone inside his groups who told their location. Elite snipers Brandon Beckett discussed that to his general who is Richard Miller. After the discussion, Elite snipers Brandon Beckett was send to Syria to protect border between Syria and Russia. In 1000 feet mountain in Syria, Elite snipers Brandon Beckett met Robert Mothershed. They figure out the revolt have device which can use their Unmanned aircraft from us as the eye to find out the sniper location. Elite snipers Brandon Beckett told that to his generals, but they did not believe him. The revolt used Unmanned aircraft from us to find out us base and they fight us base. When the revolt fight us base, Snipers Brandon Beckett's generals believed the revolt can use Unmanned aircraft from us as the eye. They shut down Unmanned aircraft from us. Elite snipers Brandon Beckett's groups and us base fight against the revolt groups. After the battle, Us won the fight but they lose many soldiers. In the last movie, Elite snipers Brandon Beckett's groups have party in the shore and general colonel give the groups to new mission.

If you're prior military DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE! If they used any military advisors in this film I would be surprised. From the number of snipers, they use teams from all branches of the military, their appearance, haircuts, facial hair (most men should have beards not neat stubble ) & techniques (barely any cover, not sure of targets, too much movement, too much talking via radio) to weapons used UAV's, missiles, & firearms. They fired a missile at enemy troops. Considering the cost of around $70,000 this would be overkill not to mention a Geneva Convention violation. So much wrong I couldn't get through the entire thing. If you can get past the Top Gun scenes and the inflatable boats that don't sink even though the crew in them have been shot numerous times then this movie may be quite entertaining for you.

Sniper Brandon Beckett (Collins) is assigned to protect an oil pipeline, but a Ghost Sniper shoots and kills some of his team. Who is it? Beckett feels someone on his side is giving the enemy sniper coordinates, and, of course, this doesn't go over big with his superiors. Oh, oh.This is probably one of the best sniper movies to come along in a long time. The acting, cinematography, photography and the music were all sensational and quite engaging. It was like watching a Bond, James Bond movie without it being so. In other words, this is a class act all the way through. Kudos. Nice to see Dennis Haysbert as the Colonel or Arch Angel as we do miss the popular TV show The Unit he starred in. A breath of fresh air and some can consider this Comic Relief with Ravil Aisyanov as Andrei when Beckett is assigned to his team for a short while. Andrei conjures up memories of Bruce Willis' character John McClane in Die Hard when he mimics McClane to Beckett's amusement. Great job by Ravil Aisyanov. (9/10)Violence: Yes. Sex: No. Nudity: No. Language: Yes.
