“Seven Snipers” is an Australian production looking to keep budgetary demands down. The cast is limited to a handful of actors, and the story takes place around a single location, maintaining minimal complication. Screenwriter Andrew O’Keefe is challenged to do something suspenseful with the low budget endeavor, and he manages to summon at least a bit of tension throughout the picture, which concerns an ex-military mother trying to protect her daughter when an old foe returns to kill her. Director Sandra Sciberras has the advantage of a wide open world to play with, generating a decent level of danger in the feature, which has its surges of confrontation. “Seven Snipers” is passably engrossing, especially in its early scenes, where O’Keefe toys with the mysteries of character connections, and Sciberras creates tense moments of danger.
