Sniper: Misión secreta

After watching all 9 installments of Sniper franchise (including this one) since the original Sniper released in 1993, I hate to say this is the most ridiculous and worst one. Thumbs down.

I wonder how could they end up reaching to this level of low quality with cheap production values, poor script, poor direction, poor casting, poor acting & overall poor editing. Everything is so terrible in this 9th installment.

It doesn't deserve even one single star rating actually, due to everything is very bad. In previous installments, presence of Tom Berenger somehow managed to create suspense and excitement, but this one is the most horrible in every aspect.

I wish, if sanity remains, producers stop further production of future sequels, for the betterment of the whole Sniper franchise.

There are many negative reviews here, but these people have never made a movie in their lives and are so critical!

Watch the movie! Working with a low budget, the filmmakers created a dynamic plot full of "What's going to happen next" moments! The camera angles and zoom-ins made the movie stand out to me. Looking dead into the eyes of a character, it has you waiting to hear the pin drop.

There are some moments where the dialogue could've used some work. I could see that some actors were working outside their comfort zone (as in taking roles that are a bit of a challenge from what they've done before, but as artists, that's precisely what we are supposed to do!) but all in all, it is a great story! To find comedy in such a serious matter as busting sec trafficking pins is undoubtedly not easy. Still, they did it in a tasteful manner that allowed the viewer to understand the severity of the mission but also chuckle a little bit.

I think the biggest issue behind the low ratings is the title. Expecting a sniper film, then This movie is a disappointment. It's not a sniper movie and the few sniper scenes aren't conventional at all, there's no spotter. No hours/days of waiting, idiotic off-the-cuff planning the snipe, etc. But it's a good movie for a small group of over-trained special forces types with a bass ass girl in the mix, led by a true blue, but jaded CIA/JSOC commander. The villains have similar backgrounds to the good guys but chose a faster but immoral path to riches. Can the reprehensible human/drug traffickers with protection from top-level Corrupt government officials be stopped by by this "rag tag" tight team of "good guys"? The hand to hand combat scenes get long, at least for me. But that's why Sony invented FF. I recommend it, unless you want top level choreographed combat skills and realistic LEO involvement, etc.

I struggled to watch the whole movie...

Bad bad bad !!

The music score seemed to both overwhelm the senses in watching the movie , as well as being poorly selected. Some scores sounded like the background music of a Tom and Jerry cartoon, while in the extreme, sounded like background music of a 1970's porno. The music did not match the scenes and I found it distracting.

I found the acting poor, camera work poor and the story both was poorly written and did not flow in the production. The actors/characters were not convincing in their roles at all.

My advice, ........ give this a movie a miss... and then to religion and pray to your god and beg that this is the last Sniper movie to be made.... This is, thus far, the worst one so far.

I have seen a lot of B-movies and some of them are really great, but this is definitely not one of them...

The bad: everything looks and feels cheap about this movie. Terribly mediocre actors, cheap photography, but most annoying of all, there is NO thrill or suspense whatsoever. Even the few action scenes look laughable. What a pain to watch!

Incredibly boring to watch as well. This shouldnt be called a movie, this should (at best) be shown on the television, when all the other tv channels are showing home shopping shows. And I would recommend watching a homeshopping advertisment above watching this sleeping pill...
