Shooter, Widescreen Edition DVD Review

There has long been a theory floating around that the U.S. government is control not by you and I, you know We The People, but by some un-named amorphous body. This body that answers to no one manipulates the reins of American power for their own enrichment of course and is all-powerful. Such is the story behind Shooter (2007) a Mark Walberg vehicle about a man, a high-powered rifle and a conspiracy to frame him for the assassination of a high ranking official.

While it was fun and fascinating to learn all about the weaponry and tactics of military marksman, Shooter ultimately fails to deliver, a smart well thought out story devoid of glaring plot-holes and how-did-I-know-that-was-going-to-happen-moments.
