I've seen the Trailer for it 5 times now, and i really dont feel its going to get great re-views, i know i shouldnt say that knowing i havent really read anything about the film. IMO.
but on the other hand i really havent seen Mark Wahlberg do a bad job at acting, and i also havent seen him be in a film i didnt like.
i wont get my hopes uo for this just like many other films, but i dont think im going to go out of my way to see it.
But it has been a while since i saw a good Double-crossed or Sniper film.
Yeah, Wahlberg's acting career has really been stepped up as of late. I loved him in The Departed. I think he should have gotten the best supporting actor oscar, he definitely stole all the scenes he was in
It doesn't look to good, but I think I might attempt a cinema visit or at very least DVD. As van Morrison once wrote, "I'm in a Mark Wahlberg state of mind".
They tried to make it realistic the start with the wind speed at the barrel of the gun and that was fine, it was good.
But then it got so stupid with its unrealistic things that started to happen afterwards i lost interest , and the way too many explosions and far too many two men killing 50 men scenes i just started laughing.
my main problem with this movie is gonna be that i read the book first. from what i see, it is the same basic storyline, but with some unneeded changes made.

Very enjoyable film, dumb yes, but well made and enjoyable.
If I wanted realism I'd go and see a kitchen-sink drama. I suppose the same people who cited that they disliked this film as "unrealistic" would deem one of them boring.
I love him in The Departed too.... I loved his fruity haircut, which totally didnt fit him and was obviously a pathetic attempt to not look the same, kinda like Matt Damon in The Talented Mr Ripley when he wore glasses, and I loved how he spent the entire freakin movie pissed off and just cussing and yellin at everybody. Thats was some great actin'
Geez, how can anybody think that douche is a good actor.
