Sniper: Legacy

Like Father. Like Son. Born To Kill.

ThrillerAction

A rogue gunman is assassinating high-ranking military officers one by one. When Gunnery Sgt. Brandon Beckett is informed his father, legendary shooter Thomas Beckett has been killed, Brandon springs into action to take out the perpetrator.

Why watch Sniper: Legacy

A legendary sniper is dead, and his son—a sharpshooter in his own right—is hunting the assassin who killed him. Sniper: Legacy opens with a premise that clicks like a rifle bolt: generational vengeance wrapped in ballistic precision. Tom Berenger returns as the ghost haunting this narrative, while Chad Michael Collins carries the weight of legacy as Brandon Beckett, a man caught between honoring his father's name and forging his own kill count.

This is lean, efficient thriller craft—think John Wick minus the stylization, closer to the taut proceduralism of early Homeland or a solid A24 action piece. Director Miguel Martí keeps the pace tight across 98 minutes, letting long-range gunplay and cat-and-mouse tradecraft do the talking. There's no bloat here, just scope work, intel, and the cold mathematics of a hunt.

If you're craving straightforward, no-nonsense action that respects your intelligence without asking you to decode mythology, this lands. It's for anyone who loved the first Jack Ryan or The November Man—solid genre work that trusts tension over exposition. The final confrontation between hunter and hunted will leave you thinking about legacy, sacrifice, and whether violence ever truly settles a score.
