“Shooter” (2007)
“Shooter” (2007) is an action thriller directed by Antoine Fuqua, based on the 1993 novel “Point of Impact” by Stephen Hunter. The film stars Mark Wahlberg as Bob Lee Swagger, a former Marine sniper who is drawn back into action after being framed for a crime he didn’t commit.
With its blend of suspense, action, and political intrigue, “Shooter” offers a gripping, if somewhat formulaic, cinematic experience. The story follows Bob Lee Swagger, a retired Marine Gunnery Sergeant living in seclusion after a mission gone wrong.
He’s lured back into action by Colonel Isaac Johnson (Danny Glover), who claims to need Swagger’s expertise to prevent an assassination attempt on the President.
However, Swagger is double-crossed and framed for the assassination attempt, leading him to go on the run while trying to clear his name and uncover the truth behind the conspiracy.
