A Hidden Gem-Why Wasn't Vantage Point A Hit?!

I am amazed that this film was dismissed when it came out and sort of got lost in the shuffle. I just watched it and could not move from opening shot to the end. What an amazing film! You don't know who is the bad guy (or bad girl). What you think you see isn't what you think it is at all. The CIA should use this film in training new recruits and seasoned ones as to what could happen in a worse case scenario. And believe me, someday something like this may just happen. Action scenes galore. Major actors and actresses weave in and out of the film and all are excellent. The writing is superb and relevant. The photography is astounding. It is supposed to be set in Spain and I can only assume it was shot there and not on a back lot somewhere. It is one of the best action films I have seen in many years. If you like political films, adventure stories and nonstop action, Vantage Point is definitely your film. I would give it additional stars but they only go to five. See this film!

Fascinating and totally edge of your seat

I had read all the reviews that said the story was boring because of the format of the movie. Yet we did not experience this at all. In fact we were completely captivated throughout the entire flick. My wife and I found it to be really exciting!

Each time the story "reset" so that you could see it from another vantage point, it was like an entirely new story that gave you more pieces of a puzzle. Like a puzzle, you're given more pieces until you can see the full story. It just became more and more exciting and even nerve wracking because it was an intense story. One segment built upon another, and led to a very exciting and edge of your seat ending. We never found it to be repetitive or boring.

This is a movie that makes you think. The concept of the format was creative and intelligent. Of course it's also full of action, and it has well developed characters that you really come to care about. The acting was excellent.

I highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes mysteries, suspense and some action. However you may have to think a bit, so keep that in mind! This may not be a good movie for you if you're looking to have a couple of mindless hours to decompress or relax. I do enjoy that type of movie as well, but this isn't one of those.

great movie

this is a great movie to have for your collection. the blu ray picture and sound is great.

Great movie with great bonus features.

Without spoiling the movie, the idea of going over the same events from several different characters separate points of view really works. It is fun trying to figure out who the good and bad guys are.

The bonus feature that lets you track each characters movement as the action unfolds really lets you see the detail and effort the film makers put into trying to make sure that everything happens in the right place at the right time.

The movie is 4 stars, the bonus features get it the fifth.
