The 11 Best Movies Filmed (Almost) Entirely in POV Shots, Ranked by Whatnerd

"POV (point-of-view) shots are a bold choice in camera angles, taking you out of the narrative and placing you directly in the eyes of a character. They're used infrequently but with great intention—never to simply cut between standard mid-shots—and they're really good at getting viewers involved in a movie. But only if they're done well. Done poorly, POV shots do nothing more than disrupt the flow of a film and can even snap the viewer out of the experience. Here are my picks for the best movies that don't just use one POV shot but are pretty much made up entirely of them! We see through the eyes of their characters, effectively turning us into the lens." - whatnerd.com
