Ratings and reviews

Mark Wahlberg is impossible not to be drawn in by, even if he's playing a very cliche tough guy big heart role. At least it's not the Rock. Wahlberg makes this movie, along with all stars like Ned Beatty

I enjoyed the movie but then for decades I watch or buy only those with actors I really like, I won't watch a movie with a bunch of unknowns, but that's me...if any movie appears to be too unrealistic I just won't watch again but this one kept my interest...

Read the book series by Stephen Hunter and then watch the movie... Movie was good, great acting and follows the story line fairly well with a few minor changes. When I read the book however, I always pictured Tom Berrenger from Sniper as playing Bob Lee Swagger.
