Movie Review - "Vantage Point"


Though you really have to pay attention, due to the movie's layout, Connie and I thought this was a pretty good movie with lots of action, and a great car chase. The first 15 minutes leading up to the assination is replayed four time, each from the vantage point of another onlooker. We give it about 3-1/2 Stars.

DESCRIPTION: Moments after he arrives in Spain for a landmark antiterrorism summit, U.S. President Ashton is shot. The 15 minutes leading up to the shooting are rehashed -- Rashomon-style -- from the perspective of various onlookers: two Secret Service agents (Dennis Quaid and Matthew Fox), a TV reporter (Sigourney Weaver) and a tourist (Forest Whitaker). This nail-biting political thriller marks the feature directorial debut of Pete Travis.
