Phillippe tries his best with the underdeveloped material, which includes a few groan-worthy attempts at Eastwood-esque tough-guy one-liners... but with a character like Bob Lee Swagger, who's not so much stoic as dull, there's only so much he can do.
November 15, 2016
Shooter is the sort of straight-up storytelling USA is best known for, albeit almost completely devoid of humor.
November 14, 2016
A middle-of-the-pack conspiracy thriller that's neither the best nor the worst thing on TV.
November 16, 2016
If the series can stay focused on Swagger's story without straying too far into subplots and avoid a convoluted narrative, Shooter has a good chance to find and retain an audience looking for an action-packed, if somewhat conventional thriller.
November 14, 2016
Watching Shooter as a series is like falling back into a well-known and familiar story, just one with lots of guns. It's downright comfortable. And that's odd.
November 15, 2016
The problem is that Shooter doesn't feel like the right show for our times, which are already tense enough. It has been delayed twice after real-life mass shootings. The loud crack of guns being fired isn't what some of want to hear right now.
November 15, 2016
I guess I wish the show's narrative had the kind of stripped-down focus that Bob Lee Swagger brings to his shooting.
November 14, 2016
You can see why this project was made for cable network audiences, but you'll be wishing the execution was more inventive.
November 18, 2016
The pilot was intriguing, but didn't sell the show like it should have.
November 15, 2016
The biggest problem with Shooter isn't its uncomfortable topicality, it's that the show has virtually no point of view regarding the complicated issues it brings to the fore.
