Movie review of Eagle Eye. warning may contain spoilers. You have been warned!

From the director of the movie Disturbia, D.J Caruso, comes the movie Eagle Eye.
Jerry Shaw (Shia LaBeouf) and Rachel Holloman (Michelle Monaghan) are two strangers thrown together by a woman’s voice on the phone. Threatening their lives and the ones they love, this mysterious woman moves Jerry and Rachel around like pawns on a chessboard using cell phones, surveillance cameras and other everyday technology to prod and control their movements. As their situation becomes more dire, they themselves become the nation’s most wanted fugitives. Working together, Jerry and Rachel must figure out who is behind it, and what is really happening and more importantly, why them.

Eagle Eye is a roller coaster ride. frantic and fast, the movie does a great job making you feel how the main characters must feel. The controlling forces throws the characters around at a pace where they can never sit and speculate at what may be behind it all and so the panic of do or die translates to the audience as the action keeps them at the edge of their seat.

A wonderful action flick, the ideas that make up this movie are hardly original but this doesn’t detract from the excitement or surprises of the movie. Billy Bob Thornton who plays Agent Thomas Morton does a great job with a bit of comedy by throwing out half-jokes. However, his character is dedicated to stopping the threat to the nation. As always Shia LaBeouf also adds his bit of funny-in-a-natural-way to the movie.

Eagle eye is a well balanced movie, displaying the humor and sacrifices of the characters as well as harrowing action scenes and delectable car chases to keep the audience’s pulse pounding.
