🎬 Must See TV Shows - Part 8 - Shooter

in #movies7 years ago (edited)

looking for an action tv-serie? Here it is!

After a weekend where I decided to spend 0 time of internet, just to kick back and enjoy some family time, im now ready to show part 8, in my journey of finding you the best tv shows out there worth to check out.

As there are a huge list of tv-shows it can be very hard to figure out what to watch, and what is simply not worth the time, and time can be very important and critical, I know that for me time isnt something that grows on trees, I probably have time to watch a tops of 2 hours entertaintment per day that I choose, and this time normally falls on tv-shows, as it is easier to find time to watch an episode rather than watching an entire movie, thats how it is for me having twins and a wife that spends up almost all of my time.

The show I can recommend watching today is: SHOOTER


Episode runtime: 60 minuts pr episode
Seasons: 1 season, and season 2 is running now.
Show started: 2016
Genrer: Action, Drama, Thriller.
Stars: Ryan Phillippe, Omar Epps, Shantel VanSanten, Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Tom Sizemore.
Show Creator: John Hlavin, it also has Mark Wahlberg as Executive Producer
Availability: Can be streamed on Netflix.
Imdb/Rotten tomatoes: 7.7 & 44% / 83%
Based on: Based on the movie Shooter from 2007 starring Mark Wahlberg.



So strange about rotten tomatoes, the critics apparently hate it, good thing its for the audience then!


I saw the movie Shooter with Mark Wahlberg from 2007, and thought that was very good, when I saw a TV-serie for it, I had mixed feelings, as the movie was good, so I was wondering how the heck they could make that over several episodes, without it being extremely boring. To my surprise it actually works out pretty well, and every week when a new episode came I was ready to watch it as soon as possible.

The acting in shooter is good, all from the main characters to the small parts, it all works out here. There is alot of action in it as well, and its like an adrenaline rush from time to time, it is also not very predictable, which many action movies/series is, there is quite a few surprises here and there.

In overall, I think this show is a 8.8/10, there is really not much dragging it down, only up as it is intense. When season 2 was announced, I once again stood with that feeling "how the heck are they gonna do that??" and the first couple of episodes was well... MEH.. But as the first season was that good I had to give it more time before dropping it, and once again.. Worth it! Things starting to connect and it got the "adrenaline" thing back from season 1, and also became unpredictable again.


Shooter takes place in America, and centeres upon Bob Lee Swagger, a retired Sniper who has been stationed many times for the US Army. One day his old commanding officer comes by his house with a job to protect the president from a sniper attack, Bob lee accepts it to spot possible locations of a snipers whereabouts during a public event. Someone however shoots the Ukranian president who is also present, and a manhunt begins on Bob Lee as he was setup and framed.


For TV-Shows it is quite alright to check out the trailer, depending on the age of the trailer, as you can easily get fooled and finding a quick recap of the first season of the show, and that would kinda suck.
So when watching trailers for tv-shows, be sure it is one of the first trailers that came out, to ensure there are not too many spoilers, but still informfull enough to give you an idea about the show

I hope you enjoyed reading this, and will consider watching this tv-show, as this is deffinently one of the better tv-shows out there.

In the reviews that I make, I try not to give out too much information, and keep the spoilers away, there is nothing fun about watching something and knowing everything in advance, not quite the same as watching it fresh.

Feel free to follow for more tv-series recommendations, as there are plenty more on the way.

I will try as much possible to make 1 tv-show recommendation daily, so stay tuned, as you might find your next tv-show on my blog :)

Definately a must see. S1 is awesome, S2 so far is not as great but still really good! New ep. every wednesday on Netflix.

Interesting that Walbergh is exec producer. Saw the original. Had no idea there was a series.

If you liked the movie you will like the tv show as well :)
