Review of Sniper

Sniper (1993)
6/10
It has its moments
9 February 1999
Sitting at home on a work-night, there is nothing to do and you're bored. You

flip on HBO and Sniper is coming on. Watch it. I'm not saying it's a movie that you have to try hard to see and definitely not rent. It has its moments. Pop open your beer or favorite beverage and relax. The movie starts off enticingly. Its plot developments, although, lack follow-up. I realize that Beckett (Tom Berenger) is a closed mouth, hard nose, kill-and take-dog-tags-later kind of guy; but instead of having him show his softer side daydreaming about Montana, let's hear about DeSilva and the training. The movie was better than a five by a nose - I give it a six. If character and plot development was better planned who knows how great this movie could have been.
