Review of Shooter (2009) by Dann M — 28 Sep 2013
Shooter is a well-crafted thriller that's intense and exciting. Former Special Forces marksman Bob Lee Swagger is setup to take the fall for an attempted presidential assassination, but when he escapes capture Swagger attempts to expose the conspiracy and tear it down.
Starring Mark Wahlberg, Danny Glover, Michael Pena, and Rhona Mitra, the cast is quite strong. And, director Antoine Fuqua does an impressive job with the action sequences. Additionally, the storytelling's well-done and keeps the film moving at a steady pace while also building intrigue.
Compelling and suspenseful, Shooter is an entertaining action film.
