Still suffering from a wound incurred during a previous mission and having aged to a point where his career is about at an end, "MSgt Thomas Beckett" (Tom Berenger) is somewhat saddened to learn that his next potential assignment involves returning to Vietnam and killing a man named "Paul Finnegan" (John Doman) who saved his life during the war. However, when informed that the man he knew has become a drug lord and has knowledge which might embarrass the United States, he accepts the mission as a matter of principle. Naturally, since it has been many years since he was last in Vietnam he is assigned a covert agent named "Quan" (Byron Mann) to help him locate his target. But what neither MSgt Beckett nor Quan realize is that there is a reason the National Security Agency (NSA) wants to kill Paul and it has little to do with the drug trade. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an adequate film for the most part but marred by a rather asinine ending. At least, that is my opinion. Be that as it may, all things considered I rate this movie as slightly below average.

Good Movie......But please Watch Sniper 1 and 2 first then watch this or you will not understand it....but also see parent's guide for Sniper 1......the movie rating is not that good because there some sniper shooting but not too much......also the Movie follows the same story again and again....but this is my view.....must watch if you like sniper shooting and also war movies lover can also watch....i haven't watched sniper 1 because.....parent's guide was not for my age so....when i am above 18 i will watch it......but please watch this movie......the movie have not too much good...story....but You will like it....as i did ........that's all....thnx

First of, if your shooting a movie in Vietnam shoot it there. There are too many Thai references in the movie. For someone who knows the area this is a dead give away. Do the homework before you shoot. Waste of film and talent. The go go dancers are too Thai. Plus the outdoor café where they had their noodles had the stools too high, this should have been a little off the ground. Plus traffic only existed (full of cars in 2005 up). Still the same waste of film and talent. Plot is very bad, why would the US send a sniper who is out in the cold, wasted. If you were to go authentic the film it in the proper place. The cost of production would still be the same and the pumpum too. So when doing a film in Vietnam do it there and not in Thailand.

Yeah, I know. Tom Berenger should be in better movies. This movie is your typical "B" action movie but the acting is much, much better. This time, he has to go back to Vietnam to assassinate a friend who has turned evil. Problem is, Thomas Beckett is older and his sniper skills are not as good as before. Something goes wrong with the hit and Thomas is forced to run for his life. Will Thomas Beckett and the Vietnamese policeman be able to get out of this mess? I liked the scenes of Ho Chi Minh City. I thought the actor that played the good Vietnamese policeman who puts his life on the line to help Thomas was excellent. Tom Berenger, as usual, has a lot of charisma and his acting is very good. Just looking at him, you feel that he is a haunted man who probably feels extremely guilty for doing what he does so well, and that is, killing people with a gun.This is a good movie to rent and watch if you're in the mood for a good action flick.I enjoyed this movie very much. But as I said, Tom Berenger should really be in better movie vehicles.
