Well, I watched Sniper 3 last night. If you're a fan of the series, you'll probably love this one! Don't expect an overt amount of action, though there are some well done action scenes that work good with the flow and pacing of this movie. Sniper 2 was the more action oriented one. Sniper 3 seems to go back to the dark, moody feel of the first one, and does so with great success. The cinematography is decent, the acting is fine, and the soundtrack is downright amazing (a Southeast Asian theme that's not over the top or stereotypical, yet is modern and historically relevant). This is a very atmospheric Sniper movie, with lots of pain from the past coming to the surface. Master Gunnery Sergeant Sniper Thomas Beckett (Tom Berenger) is hired by NSA officials, William Avery (Denis Arndt) and Richard Addis (William Duffy) to perform a covert operation in Vietnam to eliminate a suspected drug/crime lord. Beckett's target turns out to be a friend of his and the real purpose of the mission turns out to be something other than what Beckett was told.
The movie is not without its problems here and there, but they are fairly insignificant ones (IMHO) and if you're a fan of the series then this is a great, even, fantastic addition. If your not a fan yet, try the first Sniper, then the Second one, then you'll probably get into this one when you see it. It flows well with the series.
