Featured reviews
Tom makes this film, and it is a decent late night film that was intended to a b film, What surprised me was the budget, what the US dollar can get in Hugary. I mean they got tank, choppers, lots of troops, and a believable military actors. This is still a B movie, but watchable. PS they leave room for Sniper 3 with the ending. It was a power one. 6/10
Unbearable.
I couldn't believe how hard it was to watch everyone in that movie making a fool of themselves.
Like they're trying to achieve their military objectives,yet they're so delusional they don't even know what country they're in.
Hungarians and Serbs maybe neighbours,but they are worlds apart. It's like making a film about WW2 Germany in Paris,France and in french.
I just shows how little America knows about Europe,its peoples and languages...
and if they know so little,why on earth do they even bother?

I found this movie well thought out and for the most part well executed. However, it most glaring flaw was with its technical aspects. In the scene, where the underground partisan, Sophia, brings Sgt. Beckett beneath a tavern, to a store of WWII arms. Sgt. Beckett picks up a rifle and calling it a German 8mm Mauser. But in reality it is a Russian 7.62 Mosin Nagant, to which he adds the proper Russian sniper scope and mount. I was very surprised at this and wonder who was at fault. But otherwise, I felt this film is another success for Tom Berenger.
Sitting down to watch the 2002 movie "Sniper 2" after having just watched the 1993 original movie, I must say that writers Ron Mita and Jim McClain actually managed to put together an entertaining and enjoyable storyline for this particular movie.
While "Sniper 2" doesn't take place in a jungle, as the first movie did, I will say that the storyline sure was interesting enough. And it was a nice change of pace to have Thomas Beckett (played by Tom Berenger) do what he does in an urban setting.
There is a good amount of action in the movie, which supplements the storyline quite well. So the 91 minutes runtime doesn't feel long, slow or boring. I was genuinely entertained by this 2002 sequel from director Craig R. Baxley.
So this is definitely one of those rare moments where the sequel is every bit as good as the original first movie. If you enjoyed the 1993 movie "Sniper", then you definitely should also watch the 2002 movie "Sniper 2". This was my second time of watching it since it was initially released.
My rating of "Sniper 2" lands on a six out of ten stars.

I just watched this movie. Firstly, movie is not near as good as Sniper 1. And secondly some words about this so called Serbian fighters. I'm from Slovenia and I speak Serbian language. But in this movie I didn't understand not even one word. At the end of the movie I saw this list of actors. Those names are not Serbian but Hungarian. I don't know who (I know only that he's mind doesn't work as it should) said to director of this movie that Hungary and Serbia is one and the same country. Language, habits, mentality,
nothing is the same in these two countries. It's very sad that someone is making a movie about country and he doesn't even knows basics about this country. Movie quality: 3/10 Geography knowledge: 0/10
