Boring??????????

by emfdrums49

Not in any way!! We were riveted from the opening sequence to the last scene...I think the movie was superbly crafted the way it gave just one more piece of the puzzle on each "replay." The critics missed on this one!

Action Packed

by The Crow Critic

Great movie with a great twist. Not really a dull moment, keeps you guessing the entire time. If you liked 'Crash' you might like this movie, Its directed very similar. Go see this movie if you have cash to spare.

Twists after twists after twits ! ( Spoiler free =)

by The Movie penguin

I probably watch more movies that the average Joe. The movie is without a doubt one of the most mind boggling movie I have seen in recent years. I'm usually pretty good at predicting movies' outcome or who the real killer is, much before these a revealed, However this movie will leave you in awe with the multiple directions, plots, and points of you as the movie progresses.. If you have just seen the preview, Good! because you have seen nothing yet. The story is the typical US vs terrorists, but what separates this movie from others is its originality in the way it was filmed, through the eye of 6 different characters. Is this movie predictable,? Most definetly not. Will you enjoy this movie? Absolutely yes!

Too many "Vantage Point"s

by shutterbug13

This movie was pretty packed with action and it was a good "can you figure out what happened" type of movie, but to show each person's "vantage point", they rewinded the movie to the beginning like 6 times! So you could see what another person was doing and seeing from the beginning. The crowd in the theatre got tired of that real quick...after like the 2nd time. I think this really took away from the movie. It was kinda like watching a normal movie, someone new coming into the room and having to rewind the movie and start over 6 times. Sounds annoying huh? But hey, if you like that kinda thing, go see it...otherwise wait to rent it.

Great movie - lots of action and suspense. It is fancinating how different the same situation is from the different points of view. I liked how this movie progressed - a little more in each scenerio. A must see on the big screen.

Vantage Point

by sosman1983

This was a nonstop action thriller that had you in the movie from the beginning. If you loved the Bourne movies than this is a must see. Forest Whittaker and Dennis Quaid rocked. You will be guessing until the end, but pay attention or you will miss clues.

by hope2be

It was bery good. Just as you started getting nervous about how it would end, it would switch to another character. The villians were very smart and the hero got lucky when he recognized the villian.

This movie takes off and never lets you go!
You've heard "It takes two" ? Well, this movie really takes five!!
It is extremely well done - Production values, acting, directing, special effects, - and the ending will leave you breathless.
Thank you.

Was amazing!!! I want to go see it again. It had my attention the whole time and it was better than what I expected!

And for those who said it was too repetitive... of co**** it was going to be! If you didn't pay attention to the preview it said 8 strangers and 8 POINT OF VIEWS! That's what vantage point means!

The Build Up!!! and the Crash

by mcruisecontrol

The audience gets frustrated when the same scenes are played over and over but the ultimately the points of view get better as the movie progresses. Up to the very end of the movie, the action and plot line is exciting and unpredictable. Yet the last few moments of the movie couldn't have been more predictable and quite frankly cheesy. Viewers are left disappointed after such a thrilling build up to what should be a fantastic movie. This movie is only worth seeing if you enjoy a lot of action and do not expect an unpredictable ending.

Vantage Point

by Sahuaro6

We attended the movie on a busy night and from the audience I heard groans when the first flashback occured. After that, however, the groans diminished to nothing as people caught on to the movie's format. From the first to the last scene it was "sit down, strap in, hang on and GO!" Dennis Quaid didn't try to win us over with his great grin - he played a character that was all business and played him well. Others might want more characterization, but this movie is story, story, story, and each of its parts weaves true intrigue. If it's entertainment you want, this movie's got it!

Vantage Point????

by TalkiesRock

Not what I expected. About the third time the film went into reverse, the whole audience busted up. And, then they lost it again when the fateful words "I've got you," were uttered. Starts off really well and then, the thread is lost and the plot unravels. I knew who the rat was from the start--it was too obvious (how stupid do they think audiences are?). Good driving scenes, but the Bourne trilogy had better (more "realistic" if you can believe that) runs. I'd say wait for a bargain matinee or video/pay per view.

It is good for a laugh...
