Movie Review of Vantage Point

Vantage Point - 6/10
Directed by Pete Travis
Cast - Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox, Forest Whitaker, Sigourney Weaver, William Hurt

Plot Summary
Assassination of the US President told from different perspectives.

Review
Despite a good cast, I somehow felt that some of the actors were under utilized. Sigourney Weaver appears for about ten minutes of the movie and it's like she was just on as guest appearance. I dunno why Forest Whitaker was in it, in the first place cos for his role, anyone could have acted. Actors like Sigourney, Whitaker were under utilized as well. Movie has a good plot, using different perspectives and all. Camera works and the editing wasn't really good. Script wise, it was not bad but it was not great either.
Not worth watching on a weekend or a weekday. Just wait for the dvd to rent it.

Best Quote
Suarez: The beauty of American arrogance is that they cannot imagine a world in which they are not a step ahead.
