Summary: 4 Stars
A little close to real life for me... I found it real entertaining. Action intense. The amount of "Jiggle cam" filming is tolerable.DVD Review: Note Worthy
Summary: 4 Stars
With eye popping stunts, I found that this film was very good from beginning to end. It's just the main actor needs to learn a bit more to hold keep people interested. He just seems to act as if doesn't really care about the character. But other wise, I do recommend the film. DVD Review: Boooo....ring
Summary: 2 Stars
Jerry Shaw (Shia LaBeouf) is one of those guys who likes no one, and whom no one likes---especially his Dad. After his twin brother is killed in a freak car accident, everything goes haywire. Always broke, Shaw grows no more likable when he finds $700,000 in his bank account---and a huge selection of ammunition, weapons, chemicals and so on in his flea bag one-room rental.
With the FBI on his tail, Shaw starts getting cell phone calls and flashing digital sign messages (along highways and in bus stations) instructing him to steal cars, disguise himself and swipe a small steal brief case presumably containing top secret digital weapons. Along this totally unbelievable route, Shaw is forced by powers unknown to work with Rachel Hollomon (Michelle Monaghan), a single mom whose son is threatened with death if she does not do as the identical unidentified female cell phone voice commands.
Supposedly, Big Brother can watch every last move a person makes, so much so, that their lives are an open book, from the time they began to walk and picked a favorite color, until the present day. This gives a huge government computer, citing the U.S. Constitution, enough power to commandeer hundreds if not thousands of people nationwide to do its dirty work to overthrow the government, which the computer believes has abused "We the people."
The entire plot, like the chain of command characters, is utterly absurd. The film is poorly acted. And the film is just plain --- boring. Skip it.
Description of Eagle Eye
Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 12/26/2008The "cell phone thriller" is becoming a genre unto itself, and Eagle Eye should be considered a key example of the form. Frankly preposterous but compulsively watchable, this movie puts Shia LaBeouf in a mess of trouble instigated by a mysterious telephone voice. If he doesn't follow orders, dire things will happen--although when he does follow orders, the consequences are pretty dire, anyway. Also being blackmailed is a single mom (Michelle Monaghan) receiving similar phone calls. Why are they being jerked around by the purring female voice, and why is the road leading to Washington, D.C.? Actually, you won't have time to contemplate these questions, because director D.J. Caruso (who guided LaBeouf in Disturbia) keeps the action going at the customary breakneck pace. This is a wise move, because the real questions you'd likely be asking have to do with the plausibility of events on a minute-by-minute basis (most notably: how could Mysterious Phone Voice possibly know that the two pigeons would survive the hoops she makes them fly through, each one more death-defying than the last?). The actors tumble through this mayhem like scattering bowling pins, including Billy Bob Thornton and Rosario Dawson as government agents. Nobody has time to make much of an impression, and LaBeouf has much less room for puppydog charm than he did in Disturbia. Even that would be all right within the movie's berserk parameters, but the really irritating thing is the way the tacked-on final scenes reverse what would have been a heroic climax. No guts, no glory. --Robert Horton
