The kid is arrogant at first, and virtually ignored by the jaded older soldier who's seen-it-all-before. But the stark reality of murder, even at a distance, is too much for the young man to bear.

Reviews for Sniper
All it has going for it is Tom Berenger and a whole lot of atmosphere. Luckily, that's all it needs.
The writing here is routine, with superficial characters and plotting that isn't particularly exciting.
