The story is about the attempted assassination of President Ashton (played by William Hurt). The event which started at 12.00 pm only took about 20 minutes, and occurred in one place but it produced a movie of 90 minutes duration. Watching this movie was like watching video playbacks from multiple cameras. You could see the action from many points of views, which led into one conclusion.
Directed by Pete Travis, Vantage Point tells a story when President Ashton attended a global war on terror summit in
Agent Barnes took a bullet for President Ashton six months ago and this summit was his first comeback since then. Nobody and even he knew whether he was prepared for this dangerous mission. Agent Barnes had suspected that something had gone wrong from the beginning, but then he realized that the real situation was a lot worse. Few terrorists managed to sneak in and mix themselves with the crowd.
When the president stepped up the podium, he immediately shot twice and fell to the ground. The crowd went panic and the situation turned into chaos. Not long after that, bombs began to explode. Agent Barnes tried his best to rush against time to uncover the assassination and save the president’s life before everything’s too late. The action got more exciting when each side actually had backup plans.
Few people witnessed the incident and only through their eyes we could see and reveal the truth of what really happened. They all saw the tragedy from different sides as Agent Barnes rushed to the rescue. Barnes took a bullet for the president once… Was he willing to take another this time? Only you can witness the devotion and dedication of most loyal secret service agents in fulfilling their tasks.
In many situations, we often forgot that we need to see things from other point of views in order to see the real truth. The skilled investigators do this every time they try to solve cases. We shall do the same.
