Movie #2: Vantage Point


Vantage #1: Kraig Smith

More Hurt! Rashomon with terrorists. Overly elaborate plot and a "fast" Forest Whitaker keep it squarely in the fantasy realm. Gimmick is somewhat effective, but big surprise is no surprise.

Vantage #2: Hulk

Hulk no understand why same thing happen over and over. Hulk wonder why President is kidnapped. Movie no explain. Hulk think most actors wasted. Hulk not in movie. Hulk angry!

Vantage #3: McCain

Perfect example of why I'm most qualified to be President and why Obama would destroy our country. This is the "test" Biden spoke of. Manufactured terrorist plot to test Obama.

Vantage #4: Ben Linus

Jack, you need to return to the island. You can't be running around playing make believe. You're not a secret service agent, you're a hot-headed, overwrought, unshaven, vaguely alcoholic doctor.

Grade: 6/10

It took you until your second review to use a thin conceit to vastly exceed your word count. I like it. Looking forward to the next 28....

Yes, the trick now is finding a gimmicky way to grant me more than 30 words per review for the next 28! Too bad I've already seen Groundhog Day.
