Just saw Vantage Point, and it’s one of the coolest films I’ve seen in a while.
Well, at least the story is cool.
Lots of espionage and such in this flick, as well as a ton of interwoven characters! The story had several twists I was NOT expecting. It had a lot of energy and kept you guessing, and on the edge of your seat.
What I didn’t like, however, was the style. This whole show a bit, rewind, show again plus some, rewind, show again with more… it’s been done. I’m sure they THOUGHT they were being original with it (and, I GUESS it was kind of clever in a way)… but it’s an idea that’s been played to death. They even did it once on Dawson’s Creek!
So, I guess what I’m saying here is that Vantage Point is a must see… just be warned that the style in which the story is presented might irritate you a bit.
