Despite the many cliches and lacking the craftsmanship of something like "Rear Window," it manages to just reach its mark as a paranoia driven thriller.

The movie is about a teenager who is confined to his parents home due to house arrest develops a habit of spying on people when he notices a girl and a possible serial killer as he tries to convince those around him what he witnesses.

Good Build-Up

Franz Patrick - wrote on 07/13/2008

I enjoyed this film because it's half comedic and half terrifying. I liked that it took its time getting to the real chills; I felt like that the filmmakers were confident with the material they had so it all worked. Even though some of the romantic scenes were a bit corny for my taste, it was still enjoyable in an addicting bubblegum pop kind of way. Before the final sequences, I felt like I could relate to the characters and I ultimately cared what would happen to them. Shia LaBeouf was an excellent choice as the lead because he's goofy yet charming. I also enjoyed Aaron Yoo's role as the sidekick. Sure, it's got "Rear Window" written all over it but it's well done. It's nice to have a modern "Rear Window," if you will, because times have changed. I could actually write an essay about …

Review - Disturbia (2007)

When Kale Brecht (Shia LaBeouf) was put under house arrest, he knew his life was going downhill. But now, when he sees the opportunity to take down a possible killer, he decides to take the risk in “Disturbia.”

LaBeouf has a knack for choosing the worst movies to be in. I believe he’s a fair actor, but he doesn’t show off his skill enough to prove it to anybody. Then again, he’s a young star, so I don’t expect him to only take the good roles, especially when money’s involved.

I was amazed by the crew’s ability to stick some sort of product placement into every single scene in this film. I didn’t even think it was possible to sell so many things in one movie. They even through in a mention of YouTube, which will be confusing a couple generations down the road, …

"Disturbia" Review

efrain - wrote on 11/14/2007

Technology is awesome: you can Skype a friend in Italy while IMing a pal in Chile and texting your brother to pick up a pizza on his way home. This disconnected connectedness is a running commentary in “Disturbia”, a humorous thriller starring Shia Labeouf (upcoming “Transformers” or “Holes”).

The bad news: “Disturbia” is predictable, doesn’t bother with loose ends, and is simply a cyber smoothie of Hitchcock’s “Rear Window” and Joe Dante’s “The Burbs”. Not that that’s a bad thing, though. Labeouf is a hilarious talent with acting chops that could make him the next Tom Hanks. Is that’s the greatest achievement an actor can make? No, I’m just saying.

Labeouf is Kale, a troubled teen who after an angry outburst (he socks his Spanish teacher in the …
