One Shot

This movie should be called "Snipers 2".... in space. Well, actually on a planet. Well, actually, on Earth, with a few still shots of some double planets in the sky for special effects. Poor Kevin Sorbo gets a few scenes in a small orbital command center set, with a few lines, and that's about it. I like him (Hercules, Andromeda, excellent shows), but this looks like something he did on a lunch break. He barks a few orders, then says "call me when something happens", and disappears off set to get a snack or go to the bathroom, something, I'm not sure. Now, the main character is a Sniper on the planet, with the rifle, the ghillie suit, the whole deal. It's a slow pace movie with him battling some, uh, aliens, that look just like us, only they have bright blue eyes (maybe they had some SPICE). There is some action, through typical fight scenes and shooting scenes (you know the kind, 40 bullets and ray guns and no one hits anything). He ends up saving a (slave girl? Princess? Royalty? it's not clear) who hangs with him. The second Sniper shows up later in the movie (don't want to spoil anything there). There is also one bad guy who is sort of his opposite, a sniper of sorts, who seems to be hunting our main character down, but he has a role to play during the film. I give it 3 stars because the Sniper guy can act and he carried the movie, and the story is not that bad, though not well written. More dialog would have helped. Was it Scifi? Barely. This really is a One Shot, because that's about how many times you'll watch it.

This "movie" appears to be essentially two films combined (a short one containing Sorbo edited into the longer Sci-Fi combat film). Think of the 1956 version of the 1954 original of Godzilla (Gojira?); same difference. It might not have been an okay guilty pleasure movie, but the producers had no confidence in the film so they added Ken Sorbo to mix, in a rather inexpensive set, and gave him a script which he did as well as can be expected.With all the futility of war and man's inhumanity to alien spread through this piece, along with 'Dune' like aliens (blue eyes and all) it was just dumb.Please don't waste your rental money, wait for it to go free, included or just let it go. This is the first review I've ever recommended this course of action, but I stand by it.

Cheesy action film - wait for it to come out on Amazon Prime or Netflix. I kinda had prejudged this one, seeing Kevin Sorbo's name on the cast list. But, I thought I'd give this one a go, and not expect too much. Well... I was correct on the second part. This is just another sub-SyFy Channel quality b-movie. Oh, and it's not a sniper movie, if that's what you are (like I was) hoping for, given the title.That said, while it's bad, and I cant recommend renting it, it's not atrocious or unwatchable. So, if you like this genre (b-action sci-fi), you might find it something you can sit through on a lazy weekend.

Entertaining, though not much Kevin Sorbo. He wasn't the reason I bought the DVD, so it didn't matter that much.It took a while, but eventually I understood that we (humans) were the invader here. At the end you also understand that the hunter and the hunted share a common loss and are kindred spirits.

I liked the movie even though if one didn't pay close attention he would wonder if the fighting was taking place on another planet or on earth. It was pretty typical in ways. Soldier finds woman, soldier defends woman, soldier defeats the guy who owned the woman. I did like the movie, though. Desert warfare with lots of action and that is usually enough for me.

The movie was exciting to watch and I used it to watch at home.

Very, very good schooling in the way of the sniper and how well they camouflage themselves.

Total waste of time and money .. it's about as boring as they get unless your 8 years old

Es war alles zu meiner vollen Zufriedenheit . Danke !
