پریشانی

Not expecting a masterpiece, I can honest say I was very pleasantly surprised at just how much fun I had watching this movie. While it clearly tries way too hard to be hip, and the staggering amount of product placement serves only to distract, the story serves its purpose of allowing DJ Caruso to pull every trick out of the book, to very satisfying effect.

Shia LaBeouf just about gets by on his charm, but also hints at his ability as an actor, which was firmly cemented through his stunning performance in 'A Guide To Recoginzing Your Saints' last year. His character is nothing new, nor is his predicament, but he remains likable enough and it is hardly difficult to see why he is so taken by his new neighbour, played by the gorgeous Sarah Roemer.

David Morse is appropriately creepy as the neighbourhood nut-job and Carrie Anne Moss, while given little to work with, is fine as LaBeouf's mother.

The story unfolds well, and the red herrings serves to stretch the anticipation until the brutally tense finale. If you're looking for 90 minutes of unabashed, self-indulgent fun, you could do a lot worse than 'Disturbia'.

Disturbia...Oh the possibilities. But!, if you ask me this movie is a steaming pile of "hot" poo. The entire story is way to simple for anyone to take serious. The writers could have really made this movie into something great, but I guess that was their intentions. I guess thats why it's rated PG-13, but I don't any 13 year old that would be even remotely disturbed by this movie. Why would anyone call a movie that is rated PG-13 scary, if the movie does nothing of the sort. I feel completely retarded for even thinking this movie was going to be entertaining. But then again most movies of this nature end up getting us all the time. I wouldn't even recommend sneaking in to see it, the end result will leave you feeling angered for wasting your efforts to sneak in. Well ill just add this to the list of movies that shoulda...coulda...but didn't and try and remind myself that a PG-13 movie could never scary, and watch something else.

'Disturbia' is a solid, entertaining thriller that does exactly what it says on the tin. Whilst it's nothing new or special, it is well made, suspenseful and effective in building and sustaining tension.

Shia LaBeouf and David Morse deliver solid performances as Kale and villain Mr Turner. Their characters are interesting and unpredictable and work well with the theme of the film. 'Disturbia' is well paced, the developments are appropriately timed and the film does a good job at keeping you guessing.

All in all, a perfectly decent mystery thriller. One of the better ones I have seen of late, and one I would recommend.

This movie was extremely well paced -- there was very good character development without excessive dialog. The story is exciting and thrilling: a modernized Rear Window. The acting was very solid, and every actor, major or minor, sold their part. Shia LeBeouf was a likable protagonist, Carrie-Anne Moss did a great job in her role as the mother, and David Morse played an exceedingly ominous and creepy neighbor. The climax is very suspenseful, although it did contain a few minor lapses in rational behavior by both the heroes and the villain, but I suppose that could be written off as desperation. Overall, it was refreshing to see a well-paced thriller with great suspense, humor, and character development.

Although this movie is based on the plot of hitchcock's movie "rear window'', it also has it's own merits and some of it's elements were surprising . It's catered to a teen audience.
