I sat down in 2022 to watch the 1993 action thriller "Sniper" again for about the fourth or fifth time since it was initially released, given I have just sat through the less than mediocre 2022 addition to the franchise "Sniper: Rogue Mission". So I wanted to return to the original movie and watch something proper again.
And I will say that writers Michael Frost Beckner and Crash Leyland managed to put together a wholesome and entertaining storyline 29 years ago. And it is definitely a movie that still holds up today and proves every bit as enjoyable now as it did back in the day. So thumbs up to the writers for that accomplishment.
Director Luis Llosa managed to put the script to life on the screen in a very enjoyable manner, and it feels like you are right there along side Beckett (played by Tom Berenger) and Miller (played by Billy Zane) as they trek through the jungle in order to get to their appointed target.
If you haven't already seen the 1993 action thriller "Sniper", and if you get the chance to do so, then you most certainly should do that. It is a very entertaining movie. And if you enjoy warfare movies, then this is something I warmly recommend.
My rating of "Sniper" lands on a seven out of ten stars.
