"Part Enemy of the State and part Wargames, Eagle Eye is an on-the-run action thriller that derives its entertainment value from its first-half surprises to the noisy backside technology driven chase scenarios. The action works well with elaborate set-pieces and frantic periods of suspense. And the high-powered cast seems well-placed; viewers who already like LeBouf will continue to do so here while Rosario Dawson, Michael Chiklis and Billy Bob Thornton are as good as expected. Is this sort of predictive dark technology is even possible today? The concept may seem silly to more technologically aware viewers but I'm in the Air Force..... And yes it is. The final result seems to be a hyperactive, superficial techno-thriller only appropriate for viewers who, like myself, are willing to embrace the "fantasy". "

"Shia LaBeouf and director D.J. Caruso reworked Hitchock's “Rear Window” for the teen set with adequate results in last year's “Disturbia.” With “Eagle Eye,” the two return in an attempt streamline Francis Ford Coppola's “The Conversation” for the text message set. Call it “The CNVRS8SHN.” On second thought, don't call it at all. “Eagle Eye,” a project long-shelved by LaBeouf's number-one cheerleader Steven Spielberg, has a kernel of an interesting idea rattling around in its hollow head, but it defaults back to the clamor and clatter of the worst of summer blockbusters. With visuals that suggest the film was edited in a Jeep traveling at top speed on a cobblestone street, the film does not so much transition but spasms from one scene to the next. The only reason I sat through "

"I really liked this movie. Of course I was expecting to, as I am a pretty avid Shia fan, and Eagle Eye delivered on all of my expectations. There was plenty of action, but I didn't find the pace too frenetic. There was enough character development to care what happened to these people on a personal level beyond the whole imminent danger to the nation from the larger story arc. Shia LaBeouf turned out a wonderful performance, again showcasing his ability to play both vulnerable and tough with a level of honor you don't always see in modern day characters. I thought Michelle Monaghan did well also, I hadn't been familiar with her work prior to this movie, her plight as a single mother doing anything she could to keep her son safe was compelling to watch. The supporting cast was very strong and it was nice to see all of the interaction on the different levels surrounding this piece done capably by established talent without utilizing as many no-name actors as they could have eas ...

"In the new movie Eagle Eye, three characters participate in a re-creation of the famous crop duster sequence from Hitchcock’s North by Northwest. Only the plane from NbN has been replaced with an electrical tower and power lines, and it takes Shia LaBeouf, Michelle Monaghan and Anthony Azizi to perform Cary Gran’t part (Azizi also substitutes for the pilot and the farmer, I guess). Such an homage is not surprising coming from director D.J. Caruso, whose last picture, Disturbia, is currently involved in a lawsuit for being an uncredited remake of Hitch’s Rear Window. This time, fortunately, Caruso borrows enough from other films, including Hitch’s second version of The Man Who Knew Too Much

"Eagle Eye from D.J. Caruso (Disturbia), starring Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan, opens this Friday in theaters. And, for the next few days, you can win Eagle Eye swag from Spout. A mysterious woman turns the lives of two strangers, Jerry Shaw (LeBouf) and Rachel Holloman (Monaghan), upside down. They become the world’s most wanted–and attractive–fugitives. But as you wait to find out if Shia LaBeouf makes a better fugitive than an Indiana Jones (he’s got a thing for Harrison Ford roles), you can win crazy fugitive gear! Each day this week we’ll be giving away a package containing one of each of the following Eagle Eye pen/flash drive (download files or write clues on paper) Eagle Eye t-shirt (makes a great tourniquet as well) Eagle Eye hoodie (for a q "
