SHOOTER Season 2 @NetflixSA #TVSeries #Action #Shooter

Hi Friends,

Shooter Season 2 focussed on a little bit of International action where the so-called Solotov which was mentioned a little in Season 1 becomes the number 1 enemy in Season 2 as he tries to take on all the squad from unit 8113 as they go to Germany to receive some medal for a marine where they get attacked. 

In the second season also, there are double-crossings again and again and the actions also switch to Germany, Mexico, and the USA. Solotov is played by Josh Stewart showcased as Chechen sniper who fought with Russia during the Chechen war and is being taken under their control by Atlas. He has played his character perfectly great and looks like a real assassin. 

Shooter Season 2 only has 8 episodes of 45 minutes each which were first broadcasted on the USA network from July 18 to Sep 5th, 2017 and now are available for bing watch on Netflix digital platform and app. I binge-watched all the episodes from Season 1 to Season 3 on Netflix. Season 2 is one of the most interesting as the enemy also is too strong and an equal Sniper and great in his talents too. He is shown too good that he befriends Swagger's wife Julie and is invited to the Church festival of their kid Mary.

Most of the characters are the same as Bob Lee Swagger is played by Ryan Phillippe, Julie played by Shantel VanSanten and daughter Mary played by Lexy Kolker. Cynthia Addai-Robinson as Nadine Memphis and Omar Epps as Isaac Johnson continue to play their characters well enough. Jaina Lee Ortiz plays Angela Tio who is currently serving as a Marine and is a great addition to the star cast. Patrick Sabongui as Yusuf Ali also one of the Marines and goes till Mexico with Bob Lee before being killed by Solotov. Todd Lowe as Colin Dobbs also plays one of the marines with Swagger and helps him identify the shooters location in Germany and also his neighbor in Texas. Jerry Ferrara as Kirk Zehnder who identifies the Atlas conspiracy and goes underground after faking his own death. 

The story revolves around the assignment in Afghanistan when the unit 8113 was together and they come across opium which actually belongs to the CIA agent Meachum and the wife of the drug dealer are taken into custody by the marines. Solotov comes as a UN Doctor to take the wife away and kills her during an attack on the convoy. But as Donny interprets that it is his doing they take away the badge of Solotov and keep it at the base whereas all the others in the unit saw the face of the agent. This led to Solotov killing them one by one as Atlas raises a question on his performance to be assigned more tasks as it could be backtracked to them. 

Overall, the Season 2 is in continuation of the story and you will enjoy watching some of the action in Afghanistan in the flashback and also in some of the new countries introduced in this season.  Bob Lee Swagger continues to do what he does best - HUNT. RATING 3.5/5

SHOOTER Season 1 @NetflixSA #TVSeries #Action #Thriller

Hi Friends, 

I watched the Shooter Season 1 on Netflix after I watched the movie on the same name some years back starring Mark Wahlberg based on the novel Point of Impact by Stephen Hunter. 

I totally loved the fast-paced action thriller Season 1 which keeps on the edge but as it comes towards the last few episodes of Season 1, there is a lot of double crossings, triple crossings and multiple crossings between the same people where everyone is using everyone and not killing anyone whereas as a viewer you know that they have to kill them eventually. I think the first season could easily be reduced by 2 episodes to keep it to 8 episodes rather than 10 episodes of 45 minutes each on the average.

Shooter features the story of a Marine Sniper Bob Lee Swagger played by Ryan Phillippe who has retired and now lives with his wife Julie played by Shantel VanSanten and daughter Mary played by Lexy Kolker.

Shooter Season 1 focuses on Bob Lee getting trapped into the assassination attempt of the American President and killing of another Top official from another country. Now the group behind the same never thought that Bob Lee will survive and they thought they will be able to take him out but somehow he survives and the struggle starts. Cynthia Addai-Robinson as Nadine Memphis is an FBI officer who catches Bob Lee and Omar Epps as Isaac Johnson who earlier used to be the Commanding Officer of Swagger and who brought Bob Lee back from retirement to save the country and put him in this position.

How Bob Lee Swagger survives the jail and comes out of the same along with finding the clues behind the whole planning and execution? and how the group behind the assassination starts feeling the heat once Swagger is on the run and how he gets support from Nadine is the whole storyline behind the 10 episodes in the first season of 45 minutes each. As this is a fast-paced story, new characters are regularly introduced and then taken out from time to time. Swagger is shown to be a great sniper and the story goes into flashbacks too where his life along with Donny Fenn, a spotter played by Rob Brown is showcased in various missions leading to Donny's death.

Overall, Shooter Season 1 will really keep you on the edge of the seat and you can definitely binge-watch the series. The whole series has 3 Seasons and about 31 episodes in total and Season 1 has 10. I finished watching Season 1 on Thursday and Friday evening till it got finished. The season was first showcased from 15th November 2016 onwards on USA Network and now is available on Netflix. RATING 3/5
