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...

Can you ever compare to a legend? After being ambushed on a mission Sgt. Beckett (Collins), must step into his fathers shoes. Can he become as good of a sniper as his dad was and fight his way home? I spent the last few days watching "Sniper 1-3" in order to catch up. Although it helps to know the back story of his father and why Miller (Zane) is helping, but it's not necessary. This movie is very much like the other three, action is very good and exciting to watch. When there is no action or shooting, which is about 80% of the movie it slows way down and is hard to stay focused on it. If you like the other ones you will probably like this one. I did not. If you like "The American" you will probably enjoy this also. I just couldn't stay interested. I give it a C.
Would I watch again? - I will not.

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.
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.
This movie has good quality action, good sound effects, and not too bad for an action movie.
Script is very weak. Poor dialogs and poor acting is pulling the quality of the movie down. I guess actors are inexperienced but doing their best with limited talents they got (or limited by the script - not sure).
Storyline is all right. It has a little twist but it becomes apparent at the start of the movie. No deep emotions and drama element, although, there was enough room for it in the story.
If you are looking for a thriller or a serious action movie, this is NOT it. This is something little better than a tele drama, which will keep you occupied till the end.
There are few "adult elements" in the movie: a short sex scene, shooting, blood, and display of child soldiers.
