Much of the scenery looked authentic and shot on sight. It wasn't easy to tell what was green screen and what was actually filmed. The camera-work provided by Martin Chichov looked good. Those perhaps are the weakest looking parts because obviously they wouldn't have real drones. In addition, there are also drones in which are used in firing missiles. The shooting throughout this film is quite abundant so there's bound to be explosions and RPGs. There might've been not as much carnage edited in but it still got fairly messy. Action sequences were well executed again.
Mafham as Bidwell "Bulletface" sadly gets less screen time than he did before but when he is shown, it's good to see him.

Foggy contacts make him look like someone who's real clever and full of knowledge.
Negahban playing a blind man had a great look. As for other actors, there's also appearances from Dominic Mafham and Navid Negahban as a blind connection to Gasakov.
Of the members, only Cervantes (Nick Gomez) has some kind of arc. Sure they have a few moments of flare but nothing really makes the viewer want to see more of them and hope they survive all the shootouts. When it comes to Beckett Jr.'s team, few of them get much development. Miller even has a few comments that don't even really make sense but the way he says it is anyway. Zane still looks like he's having fun in the role and enjoys playing the sarcastic wise cracking supervisor of Beckett's son. Now although Zane and Berenger are still not on screen together, Billy Zane returning as Richard Miller is still acceptable. Those are the two old men who started it all, so get them on the same screen. (Tom Berenger) for that matter? Where did these characters vanish to? Where's the consistency? When starting the second trilogy, you brought on Billy Zane, then dropped him for Tom Berenger and then did the reverse again? Fans should demand to see Billy Zane and Tom Berenger on the same screen again. What happened to Sanaa (Mercedes Mason) from Sniper: Legacy (2014) or even Beckett Sr. Then there's no explanation for missing persons. Ravil Isyanov as Mashkov does have some comical quips with Beckett but the development really should have went to somebody closer. That in fact could have been substituted in for time with Beckett's other team members like Barnes (Enoch Frost), Cervantes (Nick Gomez), Aungst (Presciliana Esparolini) or just cut it out completely. Hauty's inclusion of the probation period for Beckett was okay until it became unnecessarily extended for an action shootout sequence. This is possible as to why not everything is clear, but Hauty has written for three other sequels so he should have had some idea as to what constituted as a narrative that continued the story at an engaging level. For Hauty, this is his fifth writing credit of which this is his first related work to this series. Written this time by Chris Hauty, the screenplay works to some degree but fails to make certain connections clear and answer some questions. Meanwhile the Colonel (Dennis Haysbert) and assistant lead Robin Slater (Stephanie Vogt) try to find a "ghost shooter" by the name of Gazakov (Velislav Pavlov) who's looking to stop a certain business pipeline. Unfortunately after hesitating on an assignment and lashing out at another officer, Richard Miller (Billy Zane) puts him on probation with Russian sniper Andrei Mashkov (Ravil Isyanov). Brandon Beckett (Chad Michael Collins) in the field doing what he does best. Directed again by Don Michael Paul from Sniper: Legacy (2014), fans are once again brought back to Sgt. Thankfully it works but it has warning signs. So how does this sixth entry hold up in the array of sniper films? Well it certainly isn't unwatchable.yet.

When a series like this has gotten this far in making sequels with no public critical reception, it truly is an anomaly. This is probably Llosa's best entry in American cinema but it still won't hold a flame to a lot of other well made popular films. These were both films that people viewed as fairly silly movies. The man behind the first film was Luis Llosa, the director of The Specialist (1994) and Anaconda (1997).

It was well executed movie yes but the crew attached didn't have filmmakers like Steven Spielberg or Clint Eastwood in the director's chair. Has this series cultivated a secret fanbase? Or do the producers believe there is a fanbase and keep on making sequels anyway? It just seems hard to believe that the first film would have made such an impact on viewers. It's amazing that the Tom Berenger / Billy Zane thriller Sniper (1993) franchise has made it this far.
