Movie Info

In this fast-paced military thriller, Tom Berenger is Thomas Beckett, a tough, grizzled, U.S. Marine Corps veteran sharpshooter who goes through target-spotter partners faster than bullets on his ultra-dangerous missions. The National Security Council secretly assigns Beckett to assassinate a Panamanian rebel bankrolled by a drug cartel in his bid for the presidency. The NSC also gives Beckett a sidekick: raw recruit Richard Miller (Billy Zane), a former Olympic marksman who's never killed

A solid action movie with an interesting performance by Tom Berenger as a gruff and tough loner.

All it has going for it is Tom Berenger and a whole lot of atmosphere. Luckily, that's all it needs.

Flipside Movie Emporium

The writing here is routine, with superficial characters and plotting that isn't particularly exciting.

There is a tiny bit in Sniper one which has 2 versions. The Trailer on flixster shows a different version when the DC guys talk to Billy Zane s Character about his mission in Pananma. Check out 00:21 the flixster Trailer. The DVD version is totally different. I dont know if this was the Theater version?
