As a stand alone movie this is average fare, nothing more.

The sniper scenes lack any real tension and its all very predictable.

Honestly though, how many more movies does this dodgy franchise need?

Is it trying to become Police Academy???

ULTIMATE KILL is yet another instalment in the endless SNIPER franchise. Don't get excited about the presence of Tom Berenger and Billy Zane in the cast as they're present in small, expositionary roles only and don't partake in any of the action. Otherwise, it's B-movie business as usual, with routine plotting, wooden heroes battling a drug lord baddie, and a limited number of action sequences. I have to admit that the sniping sequences are well-handled here and employ a surprising amount of graphic violence, but there aren't enough of them to make this a decent watch.

This is a continuation of the Sniper series. Tom Berenger, Columbia, Cartel with its own sniper. Mole in the group. Danay Garcia provides DEA eye candy. Billy Zane does what Billy Zane does best, provides some humor to the film. Fairly straight forward and predictable. Action is mostly high powered rifles taking long distant shots.

Guide: F-word, sex, nudity. 8 stars on the Billy Zane scale.
