Sniper: Ultimate Kill Blu-ray Review

Sniper: Ultimate Kill is by no means great but at the very least entertaining as it knows exactly what kind of a movie it is: campy comedy action. The acting is average but always nice seeing Billy Zane and Tom Berenger reprise their roles.

PLOT SYNOPSIS

For the first time, Brandon Beckett (CHAD MICHAEL COLLINS), Richard Miller (BILLY ZANE) and Sgt. Thomas Beckett (TOM BERENGER) join forces, along with DEA Agent Kate Estrada (DANAY GARCIA), in Colombia to take down a brutal drug cartel headed by Jesús Morales. When a deadly sniper nicknamed “The Devil” is hired by Morales with advanced, never-before-seen weaponry targets Morales’s competitors; our elite team is in for the ultimate battle.

 

SPECIAL FEATURES – 0/5

This release comes with a slip cover but that’s about it. No features were included.

 

VIDEO – 4.0/5

Sony unleashes Sniper: Ultimate Kill onto Blu-ray, presented with a 2.40 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer which looks decent enough with sharp detail and colors tend to appear natural. This actually looked a tad better than I expected for what probably was a small budgeted flick.

AUDIO – 4.25/5

The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track is rather good providing both clear dialogue levels mainly from the center channel as well as some nice depth when the bullets start flying and explosions start… exploding. The LFE channel did kick for some minor added effect.

 

OVERALL – 2.75/5

Overall, Sniper: Ultimate Kill is by no means great but at the very least entertaining as it knows exactly what kind of a movie it is: campy comedy action. The acting is average but always nice seeing Billy Zane and Tom Berenger reprise their roles. The Blu-ray is a basic release with no features but adequate video and audio transfers.
