10 Best Sniper Scenes In Film

A thoroughly entertaining actioner, Smokin' Aces features a memorable sniper scene with Taraji P. Henson's sharp-shooting moment with her chosen weapon. The sniper is often the quiet, silent killer but Henson's rifle obviously did not receive that message as it proceeds to fling all manner of nameless officers clean across the room.

Each shot hits like a hammer as they impact with the countless cannon fodder before them. There is no subtly about it, it screams with power from the first moment the trigger is pulled.

When Henson spots her fallen partner through the scope the emotion floods out of her, along with a hail of bullets. If armoured guards rag-dolling across a hotel lobby is your thing, Smoking Aces has got the tonic for you.
