Eagle Eye

A slacker (Shai LaBeouf) is quickly introduced into the world of American espionage when he starts receiving phone calls threatening him with bodily harm if he doesn't do what the caller asks. With the FBI on his tale, he is thrown into this adventure with a woman (Michelle Monaghan) who is receiving the same kind of phone calls.







Eagle Eye is a satisfying thriller. I can't believe I'm saying this, but there was way too much action. The action was well done, but all of the chases and car crashes took away from the suspense of the plot. Also, when the bad guy is reveled, I was disappointed. I understood the point that the film was trying to make but I thought the bad guy was a little far fetched. Eagle Eye should be seen in the theater as it is an over-all a good action flick. The film also stars Billy Bob Thorton as the FBI agent on the tales of the protagonists. Jamie says "7".

I saw this movie with Jamie and I thought it was disappointing. The action sequences were good, but the overall move was not.

I'd give it a 6
