In the mood for a movie to shake you up a bit? Eagle Eye will knock you on your ass. I had no clue how much I would enjoy this movie. Is it farfetched? Yes. Entertaining? Hell yeah! As much as I have my reservations with Shia LaBeouf coming off like a frantic cokehead in his roles, I can forgive him in this one. From start to finish, this film punches you in the gut and leaves you breathless as you wait for the kicker at the end. This blockbuster is loaded with action and a story that'll blow you away. The star of this film is not LaBeouf, Billy Bob Thornton, or any of the other actors. No, it's the one who's watching them in the film. Who (or what) is exactly doing the watching? I can't say with revealing any secrets. Let's just say it's like HAL from 2001 meets government surveillance technology gone bad. If you thought you were paranoid with "big brother" now, this movie takes it to a whole different level. Eagle Eye is out now on DVD and just when you thought you got some resolution at the end of the film, the 2-disc version contains an alternate ending that basically laughs right in your face with yet another twist.
Check it out!
