Fairly Enjoyable
While this type of movie has been regurgitated many times over the years I have to say that I actually did enjoy Disturbia. Shia LaBeouf did an excellent job of a playing a troubled teen who is confined to his home after hitting his spanish teacher. So, for the summer he's on house arrest and has nothing to do but watch the neighbors after his mom, the lovely Carrie Anne Moss, from the Matrix films, cuts off his xbox and cuts the television plug in half. It all starts getting exciting after a new young girl moves next door and Shia starts spying on her swimming in a neighbors pool. Eventually, it catches up to him and his friend and they are caught in the act. Kale notices his creepy neighbor, played to the hilt, by David Morse, from St. Elsewhere. The cast is tight and this is actually what keeps the movie going forward. The whole thing could have been written off had it not been for the believable cast headed by LaBeouf, Moss, and Morse. Definately catch it if you can.
