Shooter











Yesterday I've seen a beautiful and interesting movie, The title of the film is Shooter, at first this film didn't interest me but when I've seen it at all I was suprise by it. The leading man is the beatiful and talented Mark Wahlberg, a famous American actor.
Well the movie it's about a conspiracy in the American government, its seems not different from other but the story is so captivated that you can't stop it until you've seen the end. It's a movie with a lot of act of action, suspense with bombs and shoot. This movie was filmed in British Colombia and in Canada.

summary of the film:
Bob Lee Swagger is a retired from the United States Marine Corps Scout Sniper who left the Marines after a betrayal by the CIA which left his best friend and spotter, Donnie Fenn, dead. A group that leads him to believe they are federal agents approaches him to help entrap a potential assassin, who may attempt to shoot the President at one of three possible locations. Swagger is framed, and afterwards every law enforcement agency is after him, and he is forced to use his military training so that Justice prevails.


Shooter
features some of the most realistic sniper tactics displayed in a movie at the time of its release. The filmmakers employed former U.S. Marine scout sniper Patrick Garrity, in order to train Mark Wahlberg in accurate sniper tactics. As Wahlberg was already in excellent physical condition, Garrity submitted him to a very rigorous and realistic sniper training. Crucial to the movie was for Wahlberg to learn shooting both left and right handed (the actor is left handed), as he had to switch shooting posture throughout the movie, due to Swagger's sustained injuries. He was also trained to adjust a weapon's scope, judge effects of wind to a shot, master rapid bolt manipulation and develop special breathing skills. His training concluded with extreme distance shooting (up to 1100 yards), and the use of ghillise suit. Following the success of Wahlberg's training, Fuqua was impressed enough to appoint Garrity as the film's military technical advisor.
