I was about to write a detailed review on this but Matt-441 said it all... i totally agree with him.... with no super-duper stars, this movie really hits the very best of Genre in recent times... Me, i like movies where i can go inside the screen and be in the movie. I didn't move an inch watching this one...
Script was well written, acting was way above average.. sound effects are key to the sniper movies, sound rocked in this movie!!!... what else?? scenery... it is based in Africa so what not to expect? beautiful views of jungle, Elephants, Rhinos, Giraffes etc... it is worth watching in short...

Other than usual melodrama sniper reloaded has nothing novel or exciting to offer. A pedestrian script with no gripping moments. The whole story was very predictable, with no unexpected plot twists or anything spectacular that will make it memorable. The movie is not completely worst its a good action packed entertainer with amusing cinematography in Africa. If you wanna lay back and watch an entertaining movie, this is probably one for you. However, if you are looking for a little more depth, pass on this one. It's not like you haven't seen this before,it was just okay, it has some good action, but over all not that great of a movie.The sexual relationship between the Lieutenant and Sergeant was completely unnecessary, made even sillier by the fact that she's one of the officers on the disciplinary review board. Conclusion: A mediocre action flick that had the common decency not to insult us too much.
One of the most exciting sniper films in the past 10 years. It will keep you at the edge of your seat from start to finish. The ending is totally unexpected and very satisfying. The portrayal of the military service is quite accurate unlike other sniper films that have too much sensationalism and exaggerated bravado. Don't expect too much special effects. This is a sniper film which relies on sneaky cat and mouse or hide and seek tactics, not a film about exploding robot aliens or mercenaries wielding dual Gatling guns. If you are looking for a fun action movie with a lot of suspense and a tiny hint of drama and romance, you will enjoy this movie.
An American action-thriller. The fourth film in the Sniper film series. It follows two of the three recurring lead characters: U. S. Marine Sgt Brandon Beckett, and his father's one time sniper apprentice Richard Miller, a teacher at the Force Reconnaissance Scout Snipers in United States Marine Corps. The story introduces Brandon Beckett, whose team have been ambushed by a sniper during a UN peacekeeping mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Beckett and his team are ordered to rescue a European farmer whose land has been overrun by rebels. The action is reasonably engaging with an interesting variety of tactical techniques associated with the work of a sniper: detection, target range estimation methods, field craft, and target acquisition. Sadly, in between the action the romantic element was insipid, and the subplot about a conspiracy was anticlimactic. All in all, an engaging film but it lacks suspense.
Greetings from Lithuania.
Now that's a nice one action film. I love the first "Sniper". It was my childhood film. Me with my friends watched "Sniper", "Rambo" hundreds of times. That was a GREAT (slow) action film. Years later, i watched "Sniper 2". I don't even want to remember that one because there is nothing to remember. Couple of days before i saw "Sniper Reloaded" (like "Matrix Reloaded" heh) and - what a surprise, i really liked this movie. Sure there isn't anything special - no SGI or Oscar worthy stuff, just a simple low budget action movie. And it works. Maybe because i was a fan of the first "Sniper" i really liked this one. The lines where they remember "a father" are a great ones (to the fans of the first one). Overall it's a really nice one film, just don't expect much and you will be really surprised.
My vote is 7, but because i'm a fan of the first one i'm actually giving this one a solid 8.

- GoofsThe character Ellen Abramowitz, a Lieutenant in the British Army, does not know how to pronounce her own rank. British pronunciation is, literally, "Leftenant", for complex historical reasons.
