Collapses under the weight of predictability.
| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 26, 2020
The stylishly slick action flick that doesn't exactly tread into unfamiliar territory, but is still quite entertaining.
| Original Score: B | Oct 29, 2019
The film's climax has to rank as one of the silliest car chases ever captured on film.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 6, 2019
The most intrusive of these problems is the acting.

Is it too much to ask for procedural thrillers like Vantage Point to connect all their dots before the closing credits?

For movies like Vantage Point, life is too short.
| Original Score: D- | Aug 24, 2008
Although based around a familiar, Rashomon-style concept, Vantage Point ratchets up its intensity so effectively that the lack of originality hardly matters.

If you are looking for mindless action, it's not bad. But since this is trying to be something more than that, I can't quite recommend it.

The whodunit-with-terrorist-undertones doesn't test, shock or surprise the audience in any unique way.
| Original Score: C | Jul 19, 2008
It swears it's being clever yet refuses to trust the audience.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 17, 2008
Asks us to believe the terrorists would, after slaughtering countless people, risk their entire plan--and their very lives--on...well, I won't say. But from my vantage point, it was ridiculous.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 1, 2008

If you thought 24's perspective on terrorism was, well, limited, get ready to groan. The meat and potatoes of Vantage Point -- the suicide bomb explosions, the bloody fisticuffs and blaring car chases -- are indeed awesome, and that's what truly matters f
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 15, 2008
Those inclined to scrutinize the logic of Barry Levy's screenplay are likely to come away as baffled by its farfetched twists as amused by its bombastic excesses.

Vantage Point takes a pretty high concept, dribbles a bunch of red herrings all over it, and makes things go boom, reaping better yields than the average 온라인카지노추천 show.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 29, 2008
When you wrap a movie around a gimmick, the wrapping better be taut and engaging or the gimmick falls flat.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 27, 2008
As Vantage Point becomes increasingly busy with personal betrayals and redemptions, the ostensible politics, reductive to begin with, fall by the wayside.
