Sniper 2 (Video 2002)

Sniper 2: Directed by Craig R. Baxley. With Tom Berenger, Bokeem Woodbine, Erika Marozsán, Tamás Puskás. Sgt. Beckett’s last mission sends him to a remote war-torn wasteland between Eastern Europe and Asia to assassinate a repressive terrorist leader. Once the job is done, Beckett and his spotter find escaping more difficult than anticipated.

“I found this movie well thought out and for the most part well executed. However, it most glaring flaw was with its technical aspects. In the scene, where the underground partisan, Sophia, brings Sgt. Beckett beneath a tavern, to a store of WWII arms. Sgt. Beckett picks up a rifle and calling it a German 8mm Mauser. But in reality it is a Russian 7.62 Mosin Nagant, to which he adds the proper Russian sniper scope and mount. I was very surprised at this and wonder who was at fault. But otherwise, I felt this film is another success for Tom Berenger.”
