Portuguese Sniper

Deep in the jungle of Colombia, a mercenary sniper wants to kill a rebel leader but the portuguese sniper shows his skills against an incredible killer.

Portuguese Sniper does a great job of allowing us a glimpse into the world of the snipers. The rifle of the portuguese sniper is awesome in every way, and the rifle of the mercenary sniper is great also. A smart move from Constantino Filmes, that show us that even in Portugal they can make good movies and this one is a must have.

10/10

Solid thriller but low on reality and action, the pace is good through and it is quite enjoyable until the end where believability is pushed just a little bit too far. If character and plot development was better planned who knows how great this movie could have been. So, i´m still gonna give this a 7, just for the effort to make a portuguese sniper, and i love the sets.

A seemingly low-budget film makes up for every flaw with action, this brings back the old cat and mouse game, that sniper movies have. Great soundtrack that really takes us there to the forest to see two elite snipers face each other, with traps, until the moment we all wait for, the time to pull the trigger. It builds up nicely, to a great finale, the target gets away, but the confrontation between them is for the ages.

Portuguese sniper is very good movie to watch despite the fact that it isn't a great movie or a perfect one because of its minor flaws, but then again not every movie is perfect. The movie stars Rui Constantino that also directs has the portuguese sniper and Pedro Pinecross has the villain mercenary sniper the two of them fight to the death, and with glorious scenes of snipering. This is a fine military action thriller. Acting and casting is great.

8/10

The producers and director did something special here, with the snipers and troops, locations, weapons. Could it have been better? Sure. Hand-to-hand combat is always cool to watch no matter what. But given the limitations: this movie rocked !!!

For the summary, Portuguese sniper is a very good movie in my opinion.
