Product Description

Alfred Hitchcock fans may experience deja vu upon exposure to this voyeuristic thriller. That's because director DJ Caruso (The Salton Sea) and co-writer Carl Ellsworth (Red Eye) use Rear Window as a jumping-off point before cherry-picking from more recent scare fare, like The Blair Witch Project. In the prologue, 17-year-old Kale (Shia LaBeouf, Holes) loses his beloved father to a car crash. A year passes, and he's still on edge. When a teacher makes a careless remark about his dad, Kale punches him out, and is sentenced to house arrest. After his mom (Carrie-Anne Moss, Memento) takes away his Xbox and iTunes privileges, the suburban slacker spies on his neighbors to pass the time. In the process, he develops a crush on Ashley (Sarah Roemer, The Grudge 2), the hot girl next door, and becomes convinced that another, the soft-spoken Mr. Turner (David Morse, The Green Mile), is a serial killer. With the help of the flirtatious Ashley, practical joke-playing pal Ronnie (Aaron Yoo), and an array of high-tech gadgets, like cell-phone cameras and digital camcorders, Kale sets out to solve a major case without leaving his yard (a feat that would prove more challenging for a less affluent sleuth). In the end, it's pretty familiar stuff, but there are plenty of scares once Turner realizes he's being watched, and rising star LaBeouf, who next appears in Michael Bay's Transformers, makes for an engaging leading man--despite his character's propensity for slugging Spanish instructors. --Kathleen C.

 Favorite!!! July 1, 2009

Ok, by far, BEST Shia LaBeouf movie ever! I have to be honest, I've only seen the film once, on STARZ, but I haven't seen it since, and it's the best. I just can't stop watching it. It's a must see for anyone who loves Suspense.
 Disturbia is Much better than its reviews June 19, 2009
Saddledup (Placerville, CA. USA USA USA)
I read the 1 reviews, and although I am not really into writing reviews I had to take exception the the ones I read. That pushed me a little to write this review.
I will agree that there was a lot of top of the line products shoved in front of your face. I saw it as a semi typical attempt to say that this is what the average american teenager has available to him for entertainment. I know for a fact that most do not so it was an attempt for the manufacturers of these products to put them in your face so you too will want to spoil your home bound teenager with.
This said I feel this is the only negative thing I want to say about the movie. Now I am 60 years old and I loved it. I do not care about the products placed in front of me so it was completely lost on me.
I looked at the movie as a coming of age formate movie, the first love. The finding out there is mor to a person than the items they have and play with.
Shia character find his heart throb, his love at first sight. Then as luck would have it it was a Rear Window take off that I think worked well. In an entertaining way. If you were to look at this as a reality sort of thing it would be a joke to have all of that happen the way it did. but this is a movie for entertainment value only.
I think it worked for that alone.
Like I said I would not be writing this if were not for the first negative review I read. I can see the point of some of the comments and if you really want to be critical then yeah OK I agree in away. But a reality check needs to be added. This is a creation of Hollywood. It is a movie right? It was not a reality video, so give it a break. It is for entertainment only it is not a documentary. There are things that are not perfect.
If you want to really compare it to Rear Window, thenI am sure there are some that can and will complain about that movie. I liked it too so I can not and will not.
I say the lower rateing are uncalled for and this movie is much much better than it was rated.

 Disturbed That I Watched It May 27, 2009
D. Mikels (Skunk Holler)
If silliness is your cup of tea, may I heartily recommend DISTURBIA? The premise is simple enough: A distraught teen upset over the tragic death of his father (Shia LaBeouf, isn't your 15 minutes about up?) gets a summer-long sentence of house arrest for slugging a snooty teacher (who had it coming, if you ask me). Confined to his house, and with nothing better to do, he decides to pass the time of day spying on his neighbors--particularly the silent, brooding neighbor next door (David Morse).
Does anyone ever bother to wonder how this teen has more high-tech equipment, cameras, handhelds, and gadgets than the FBI? Setting that aside, once the LaBeouf character and his pals (Sarah Roemer and Aaron Yoo) push the brooding neighbor too far, this movie dissolves into nonstop nonsense (dungeons, secret rooms, floating body parts, for goodness sake). The ending is predictable, but not what I would have wanted for DISTURBIA. The teens were so obnoxious and overbearing I was cheering for the bad guy to catch them.

I'm usually not a huge fan of remakes, but I love this twist on Rear Window. There are so many crappy horror/thriller movies being made these days that I was really suprised and pleased with how good this was.
