Vantage Point

The Vantage Point
In Spain, President Ashton (William Hurt) is attending a world-wide summit on terror where leaders from around the world are meeting to stop terrorism. Thomas Barnes (Dennis Quaid) and Kent Taylor (Matthew Fox) are two Secret Service agents protecting the President. Shortly after the President is escorted to the podium, he is shot twice by an unknown assassin. The President falls to the floor, dead. The audience is in shock and chaos breaks out, then a bomb goes off, destroying the stage and killing many other leaders and civilians around the stage. But this is not the whole story. In that audience were 8 complete strangers that each saw something and each had a small piece of the puzzle. Through their eyes we see the truth behind the assassination attempt.

The Strangers
Vantage Point had an all-star cast with many great actors and actresses. The 8 strangers were Dennis Quaid, Said Taghmaoui, Forest Whitaker, Edgar Ramirez, Matthew Fox, Ayelet Zurer, Eduardo Noriega, and William Hurt. There were many other famous actors and actresses in this movie as well: Bruce McGill, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Richard T. Jones and many others.

A Must See
Vantage Point was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Filled with intense sequences and high-speed chase scenes throughout the whole movie and mystery from start to finish, this is definitely a must see for all movie fans.
