Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This film was terrible in every aspect. The acting, filming, sound, character drama - all bad.The idea was captivating - I kept hoping it would get better...but it didn't.Someone could make a good version of this movie and it would be decent...it would probably be tainted by the stink of this movie.I believe this was supposed to be some kind of drama - there was nothing dramatic about it though. Lots of long slow pans over scenery were used. Why would someone go to all the trouble of making this movie, and then after watching it say, "I still want other people to suffer through this."

D.C. Sniper (2010) ** (out of 4) If the title of the movie you're watching in some way, shape or form mentions a recent serial killer then more than likely you're viewing an Ulli Lommel flick. This time out he takes on the sniper shootings that terrorized the D.C. area and we have horror legend Ken Foree (DAWN OF THE DEAD) playing the man guy behind the killings. If you're looking for a history lesson of the actual events then it's best to look somewhere else because this film is just like all the others in this non-stop cycle of "real event" films coming from Lommel. Apparently they're doing well on DVD so I guess we shouldn't expect any of them to stop anytime soon. This film, co-written by Lommel and Foree, is actually a step up from many of the previous films for a couple reasons. The first is that it appears Lommel was actually trying to make a movie instead of just swinging the camera around for no apparent reason. The film is still shot on a digital camera but it looks a lot more professional than earlier films. Another major plus is that the editing is also pretty good and the sniper killings contain some mild tension. Another reason this film works is because of the performance by Foree. It's not Oscar-worthy material but he fits the role nicely and you can certainly tell he's giving it his all. The rest of the supporting players (including Lommel) aren't that strong but none of them are too horrible. It should also be noted that this isn't a horror movie as it actually tries to come off as a political thriller. The sniper shootings contain quite a bit of blood so that might please those coming to this for violence. We get a couple supporting characters, undercover FBI guys, and their side stories really aren't that interesting. Another negative thing is that we get a lot of dialogue, which I'm sure those familiar with the recent work of Lommel will expect. This film certainly isn't going to make Lommel any new fans but those, like myself, who continue to watch everything he releases will probably agree that this here is a step up. It's certainly not perfect and not even close to being good but we at least get to see Foree in a big role.

This was hands don't one of the worst movies I ever attempted to watch. I could tell from the first 20 seconds that it was going to be bad. After the first 5 minutes, this was confirmed. The best thing about this film is that it gives encouragement to aspiring filmmakers, directors, and actors. It shows that even if you're horrible a horrible actor, working for a poor director, and an awful production crew, on a gut-wrenchingly horrible film, that one day that film may be shown to millions of unsuspecting victims around the globe.Don't waste your time. In my top 10 of Worst Movies Ever. Piece of trash.

This movie was full of clichés, horrible acting and cheesy dialogue. How can you make the DC Sniper story boring? Before I watched this, I wouldn't think it would be possible. The camera work was very low quality and shaky. The confessionals between the characters and a camera were almost humorous and the voice over work of the federal agent was unneeded. Why was it important to know about his run away daughter and her venture into online pornography? I'm telling you... I don't know how anyone can say they enjoyed this movie. It was unfocused, poorly written and simply corny. I would expect this at film school.
