In Columbia Pictures' action-packed thriller Vantage Point, eight strangers with eight different points of view try to unlock the truth behind an assassination attempt on the president of the United States. Thomas Barnes and Kent Taylor are two Secret Service agents assigned to protect President Ashton at a landmark summit on the global war on terror. When President Ashton is shot moments after his arrival in Spain, chaos ensues and disparate lives collide in the hunt for the assassin. In the crowd is Howard Lewis, an American tourist who thinks he's captured the shooter on his camcorder while videotaping the event for his kids back home. Also there, relaying the historic event to millions of TV viewers across the globe, is American TV news producer Rex Brooks. As they and others reveal their stories, the pieces of the puzzle will fall into place...and it will become apparent that shocking motivations lurk just beneath the surface. (Columbia Pictures)

REVIEW :
For the first 10 minutes i watched this movie, it had just enough mystery to get me excited without looking away. i was hypnotized with the story. There is a lot of view point here in this movie. It makes rewind to the beginning for every different viewpoint.It made me very curious. Maybe for some body the 'rewind' things makes it so annoying, but i think it made it much more awesome.Every 20 minutes or so you're right on the edge of your seat and are left hanging until the very end, it's totally worth it. It had the perfect combination of action and suspense.You can see the end by watching all the view point and it leads you all to the end of story.I give this 7 point of 10 to this movie.
