Vantage Point  7/10

The rewinding got a bit annoying, even though it was needed to understand the plot.

I started watching it, but soon attended my Zen garden, because the beginning is so damn boring. That was until the first 30 minutes or so passed and it picked up, I stopped gardening then.

Have you seen it?
Nope, trailer didn't really catch my interest.
That´s my point. I almost quit during the beginning because it was so slow. I read up a few reviews on imdb and decided to stick with it. Still havn´t come around to seeing the rest, but tonight looks good.

Its really weird. Really. And it starts so damn slow, I played Plants versus Zombies while watching it in the beginning. After the first 30 min though, something changes and it really grabs your attention. Plan on finishing it today if all goes well. I´m curious how it ends.

The point being that if you're going to try, at least put PvZ down.

Well, there's great B movies like Army of Darkness. Then there's Big Man Japan which is a passable (if weird as shit) B. Then there are a slew of bad B movies that generally never get shipped in anything but a bundle, but that I can still tolerate watching.

Beyond that, there are just bad movies. Movies with the perfect storm of horribleness. But even these can have a spark of worthwhileness to them. Movies that have no budget, take themselves seriously but aren't even funny and aren't memorable in any way, shape or form are the bad bad movies.

The point being that it does not really appeal at first but is said to be worth it

Yeah, that one.

Watched the rest yesterday. What a weird movie. Hard to rate. Apparently, it´s far easier to understand if one has read the book, which I havn´t.
Anyways, the visuals are really damn amazing, and they are enough to create a strange mood. Adding atmospheric music and sounds, so few but well chosen, really fuck with your mind. It triggered some really weird feelings, making me uncomfortable like only Hitchcock´s Psycho did.

The story is well confusing and every time you think you got a grasp of whats going on, something changes and your puzzled again. And of course the ending is totally open.
After some reading, it is apparently intended to be that way by the director, giving room to your own interpretations.

The movie is over two and a half hours long, and you really notice it. I already mentioned the slow beginning. There are quite some scenes scattered throughout the movie, where extensive dialogue or long lasting scene shots drag on.
The dialogues were generally good, but highly philosophical. Made it hard for me, cause it´s not my preferred field, but someone with a better grasp of the concept surely gets more out of it than me.

tl;dr
I´d recommend a watch if you care for classic sci-fi that is not star-trek-space-thing and if you can bring the patience.

What exactly are the A and B qualifications for movies? Or are we just talking about a general expression to rate "A" good movies and "B" crap movies?

So basically if it hits theaters it's an "A" and if it's on really late at night with shitty acting and dialog it's "B"?

There are plenty of movies that go straight to DVD/Blu-ray

horrible, horrible, horrible acting

semi-interesting plot concept, although poorly executed.

left you feeling like somebody put a vacuum in your mouth and instead of suck, did blow and shoved all of the carpet crud inside your lungs.
