Vantage Point. FUCK I HATED THAT MOVIE. Even just typing the name fills me with raaaaage.
See, they took the same scene and shot it from several different angles, or 'vantage point's. (durr hurr hurr so clever of them.) Generally, I have no problem with that. To the contrary, I like seeing how the same scene varies with each character pov.
But that was the entire movie. ONE SCENE! 15 million different shooting angles. After the fifth vantage point I wanted to hunt down everyone involved in the movie (I don't care if their level of involvement was 'bringing coffee' I WILL HUNT THEM DOWN), string them up as an example to other filmmakers, and then shoot myself in the head to make the painful boredom go away. IT WAS THAT BAD.
