10 Hated Movies (That Deserve A Second Chance)
7. Shooter (2007)
Mark Whalberg is one of those actors that you kind of love to hate. He will never be the academy award-winning actor that he might think himself to be but he sure is great in a low-rate thriller. In fact, Shooter is one of the best Whalberg movies out there. Yet, for some reason, it gets a lot of flack from both critics and audiences
The movie is great for many reasons. Firstly, it doesn't try to be anything that it is not. For once, Whalberg plays it down a few notches with Danny Glover also following suit. Nobody is trying to win and award, nobody is trying to be Marlon Brando, all they are doing is following a plot, shooting some guns, and entertaining those who like to go to the movies to watch things blow up. What's wrong with that? Not every movie has to be deep and meaningful, right?
