One Shot

It is so obvious the 'bad Aliens' are supposed to represent Muslims.. the ethnicity of the actors who play the parts of the aliens are of middle-eastern descent or closely resemble Arabs and middle-eastern. The way the female alien and the leader of the aliens are dressed clearly resembles that of tribes men and women. In my opinion whoever made this movie had an agenda... and it was anti-Muslim. Before anyone gets the idea I am Muslim and I am being over sensitive.. think again, I am an atheist and as far as I am concerned all religions are ridiculous. But what is even more ridiculous is someone making such a cringeworthy and obvious piece of anti-Muslim propaganda. To make things worse, it is a dreadful story line, really bad dialogue, poor production quality and badly acted. Watch it and decide for yourself.

I started to watch this lame excuse for a film on GREAT movies action on UK Freeview as I just needed an evening vegging out after a hard day at work. However, I was unable to relax as this film - called Sniper Elite in the UK - is woeful and irritatingly so. I enjoy trashy alien movies such as Cowboys vs Aliens. At least in that film they made and effort to make the alien soldiers look extra-terrestrial. The costume manager for this film probably got a job lot of SWAT uniforms at an army surplus store. The rest of the budget was probably spent on half a dozen tubes of Colgate blue gel toothpaste for the aliens' blue blood; a few cans of industrial black paint for the plywood set masquerading as the interior of a space station; some bedsheets out of which to make Arabic looking costumes for the non-military aliens. I doubt anything was spent on the cast as they had very little to do, except run around or look sincere/intense. To save the money spent on the army surplus gear and toothpaste the producers appear to have done away with the need for a screenwriter and director and let the actors ad lib lines. Of course, the aliens speak English/American. You know what? This film doesn't even deserve to have viewers wasting their time writing a review let alone watching this drivel. I actually gave up after 50 minutes. It's right down there with Jaws, The Revenge as one of the worst films I've ever seen.

A certain waste of everyone's time, including the supposed aliens - saved money by having them humans, as well.

Hot babe , but not enough to make this nything other than implausible, unlikely, poorly executed and acted - and generally and specifically stupid.

Why there is a length requirement for trash movies is odd - given this one is so bad ... bad as in really, really bad. How bad is it? It is so bad, once one realizes it is this bad, they know it is bad. Trying to consider more ways to say how bad is hard given how bad it is - bad and goofy equipment including skywalket things and bad costumes and bad acting ... really bad.

Personally I did not enjoyed the movie. You do not have to wrap your mind around this one that the movie is crap, so no I will not watch it again. That's a really good film, someone wrote, well he or she must be a relative or something. When I first watched One Shot review on IMDb it had a 5.6 score now 2 days later it is on 3.6 oh yeah the complete crew and family had voted, not to stupid a 10 no just a 5-6, no one will notice. I voted 1 because I could not vote less, too bad. There is no trailer, sure how to make a trailer of of nothing, it would have been nice, now I spend one hour on nothing. Someone wrote, I enjoy watching for bloopers, objects that should not be present such as tire tracks in westerns, etc. If they were present in this film I missed them, so do I but this movie, sorry my mind was at different places. Now you are warned do not use your time or money on this piece of junk.

Just because a film has a low budget, doesn't mean it needs to be stupid.

There's too many moments where our hero stands out in the open, surrounded by enemies and yet they all miss. They are worse than Stormtroopers!! Supposedly well trained military do the most ridiculous things.

The other rather annoying thing is that despite the film being called Sniper Elite on Amazon Prime, there's very little actual sniping.

The story drags and goes nowhere. There's a really out of place monologue towards the end that is laughable. Most of the run time is spent trudging across a flat desert / scrub land.

There's maybe a vaguely interesting premise behind this film, but it is lost under the weight of bad story telling, awful script, cliche, and poor direction.
