Although based around a familiar, Rashomon-style concept, Vantage Point ratchets up its intensity so effectively that the lack of originality hardly matters.

Watchably silly at best, it's the political thriller as an unintentional comedy of errors - 24 meets Noises Off.

Vantage Point might sound intriguing on paper but it's all gimmick and not a lot of substance.

Collapses under the weight of predictability.
