I dragged Yet Another Back Guy to see what I thought was going to be a good movie this afternoon. We both want our money back plus more for pain and suffering.
Before he has an opportunity to blast me and assail my taste in film, let me explain. A few weeks ago I saw the Vantage Point trailer. The shit looked great. I mean when you have a movie that emulates the assassination of an internationally hated American president (cough, cough...Bush), how can you go wrong? Well, we should ask the director and producers because they managed to do just that.
This movie had everything from shitty acting to a porous plot. And to top it off...the shit was poorly written. To give you a bit of perspective...despite being a drama there were bouts of collective laughter throughout the theater at various points during the showing.
If you don't believe me, believe Reuters and it's film review.
I can't believe I wasted $10 and 2 hours on this bullshit.

Hate to say it pa but...come on man!! What made you do it? Wasn't there ONE other film that caught your eye? LOL
Thanks for telling us - never saw the trailer - never heard of the movie - so okay!
Aww I LOVED it :)
so many movies, and so little time. This WAS on my list, but I will gladly cross it off!
Umm I saw it and although I do agree that the acting was piss poor, the movie, well really the plot was good. Then again I went and saw it when I was working on no sleep and coming from happy hour.
Stop playing! And I was planning to see this tomorrow while I'm working from home! LOL! Dang! I bet Matthew Fox will make up for the horrid movie though.. I'm gonna try my luck! Thanks for the heads up!
Long live Bush!
The only bush I want to live long is the one in my pants.
my coworker wants to see this. i thought it looked bad.
on the real, i just knew it wasn't going to be great. i just never knew it would stink so badly. and Forrest Whitaker's face shots? priceless!
