Vantage Point
{4.5/5} Vantage Point, released in 2008
The President of the United States comes together with other world leaders in Spain to forge an agreement on terrorism. Despite the highest security precautions, the President is shot and chaos ensues. The events leading up to the shooting are shown from several different points of view. Even with this unusual structure, the movie is exciting — you find out new things from each iteration. Dennis Quaid, Forest Whitaker, William Hurt, and Sigourney Weaver all make it a gripping story.
Directed by Pete Travis (Dredd).
