ONE MAN ARMY

Today I watched the Mark Wahlberg thriller

Shooter (2007)

This was an edge of the seat treat to watch.

Pure escapism.

We like Wahlberg a lot and he does not disappoint.

The film also has Ned Beatty as an oil company bought and sold US Senator. It is so good to see this veteran pull out all the melodramatic stops. A sneering red-neck / red state / red meat villain.

Not to spare us the full stop pleasure of seeing bullies get their due, Danny Glover (getting old) is the quasi CIA no-initial agency head that carries out the Senator's bidding.

It was fun to watch and I will give it a 4 out of Netflix5. Just for fun.
