Directed by: Luis Llosa

Starring: Tom Berenger, Billy Zane, J.T. Walsh, Aden Young

Genres: Action, Drama

Trivia: The movie Sniper is a factual story loosely based on the biography of United States Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt Carlos Hathcock, a sniper during the Vietnam War. A book, "Marine Sniper," written by Charles Henderson, has the same stories where Tom Berenger crawls across a field to get into range to shoot the drug lord, and also where Berenger is stalked by an enemy sniper; then he shoots the other sniper, and the bullet goes through the rifle scope. Those two scenes actually happened in real life.

Continuity mistake: After the fight with Zane about ending the mission, Berenger puts a marker down on the ground. Later the mercenary sniper picks up the marker, but it's a different marker than Berenger put down. (00:56:45 - 00:58:05)
