About this product

Product Information

A presidential assassination attempt is told from multiple points of view in Pete Travis's directorial debut, VANTAGE POINT. U.S. president Ashton (William Hurt) is in Salamanca, Spain (though much of the film was actually shot in Mexico), to announce plans for a major global summit on terrorism. But as he stands behind the podium in front of an adoring crowd (with protesters blocked off from the stage), he is shot twice, followed shortly by a small explosion and then a massive blast. Secret Service Agents Barnes (Dennis Quaid), Taylor (Matthew Fox), and Holden (Richard T. Jones) immediately jump into action, trying to find the terrorists responsible amid all the chaos. The thriller first shows the events through the eyes of television news producer Rex Brooks (Sigourney Weaver), and then the film rewinds, replaying the action from a different point of view. Each perspective reveals a few more clues, then rewinds again, taking the audience through the assassination attempt and its aftermath again. VANTAGE POINT has the feel of the 1950 Akira Kurosawa classic RASHOMON, told with the speed of the television show 24. The all-star cast also includes Forest Whitaker, who gives another fine performance, playing an American tourist recording everything on his video camera. The rewind device--reminiscent of the Bill Murray comedy GROUNDHOG DAY--could have been gimmicky, but instead Travis and first-time screenwriter Barry L. Levy make it work, as more details are revealed with each flashback, leading to a pulse-pounding chase and surprising finale.

Surprisingly good from....my vantage point
I must admit I went into the theater interested, but skeptical. Slowly, I got drawn into things, and by the time the we were at the fourth vantage point, I was fascinated by how all the stories interrelated with each other, and wondering the story would end up. The acting is uniformly excellent, especially that of Dennis Quaid, who I had previously considered a mostly comic actor, but is very convincing here as a Secret Service agent. The direction and script are also excellent, especially when you consider both are first-timers in the world of feature films. The script was not without its clichés, but I didn't see most of the plot twists coming, which I can usually spot coming a mile away in a film like this. There was one real groaner of a plot twist that you'd have to be an idiot not to see, but it goes by so fast that it doesn't really matter. A lot of the audience in the screening I was at got frustrated by the repeated sections, obviously having no attention span. But once the third act of the film kicks into gear, everybody stopped complaining. Speaking of which, the third act is the payoff which we've all been waiting for. Seeing all the plot threads converge in such a convincing matter was nice, as was the final action scene, which seems like it was plucked right out of one of the Bourne films. This comes as little surprise, since director Pete Travis and Bourne series director Paul Greengrass have worked together in the past. As skeptical as I had gone in, I came out impressed. Not since The Bourne Ultimatum have I seen such a convincing, engrossing action thriller.Read full review

Vantage Point - A surprising pleasure
I went into this movie with high expectations and was not disappointed. From the beginning the movie grabs your interest and holds it throughout the movie. At first I thought the "rewinds" were a bit annoying, but after a while they made a lot of sense and I began to understand the message they were conveying. The Director did a great job of keeping my interest while telling an exciting story that leads up to the final scene. Dennis Quaid gives another powerful performance, along with all the other actors. I highly recommend that you buy this DVD and add it to your collection. I rate this movie a 5 of 5 for it's gripping action and for a strong performance by all involved.

Vantage Point a Great Movie
My husband and I rent and buy many movies. We had never even seen a preview for Vantage Point but when we saw it in the local movie rental store we had to watch it simply because we have always liked the actors involved. We were really glad we did. Both of us agreed after watching that it was the best movie for 2008. The best we had watched in a LONG time. I expected 8 points of view of the same topic to get boring. WRONG! It has alot of twists that are so unexpected and the way it was filmed, with and view from each character was so different from all the other action/drama that you see today that I decided to look it up on E-Bay instead of waiting to buy elsewhere. Both Dennis Quaid and Forest Whittaker are fantastic in this. The only problem with this is everyone wants to borrow it!
