Sniper: Reloaded
SYNOPSIS: While working with the UN Forces in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Marine Sgt. Brandon Beckett (Chad Michael Collins), son of renowned sniper Thomas Beckett, receives orders to rescue a European farmer trapped in the middle of hostile rebel territory. When he and his men arrive at the farm, a mysterious sniper ambushes them, wounding Beckett and killing everyone else. With the help of his father’s former protégé, sniper instructor Richard Miller (Billy Zane), Beckett must learn to think like a sniper to track down the assassin before the sniper returns to finish the job.

Michael Potter: You!
Jason Rutledge: At first I mis-read that and though it said “local.” Your actual question is much easier to manage. Gotta go Leon, even if he couldn’t take care of his money very well.
Stephanie Marie: elektra!
….Jennifer Joseph Rodgers Leon, Martin Q Blank, JasonBourne, Hit Girl, The Bride
Brian Knox: Will Munny from “Unforgiven.”
Corey Tess: Trujillo Leon
John Morris Markin: Vanth Dreadstar, Niko from Thieve’s World, The Man who never Misses..,
Adam Frazier: Do bounty hunters count? Obviously the correct answer is Boba Fett.
Charissa Gilmore Duff: Nikita
Alex Langley: Ezio Auditore De Firenze
Harold Burman: So many to choose from. To be quite honest these aren’t my favorites, but I do like them because of their philosophical take on killing. Forest Whitaker in “Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai”. Tom Cruise in “Collateral”.
Jim Mack McGee: Go with Corey & Charissa either Nikita or Leon
Mitchell Ivey: Artemis Entreri

Ezio. Altair. Garrett (though he’s obviously more of a thief). The Grey Mouser.
Well aside from ‘favorite’ I also thought ‘Mister Shhh’ from Things To Do In Denver When You’re Dead. If mainly because, when I think about ‘assassins’ there is a practical part of me who thinks he’s exactly the sort of person you’d get to be one. (And like, say, Arthur Bishop from the original The Mechanic).
Charley Partanna… from “Prizzi’s Honor”.. anyone else remember that movie?
