Disturbia Review


�

Being a fan of Alfred Hitchcock (this is an adaptation of Rear Window after all), I thought I�d give this movie a shot. �

�

Shia LaBoeuf stars as Kale, a troubled teen who blames himself for his father�s death in a car accident. He winds up with a 90 day house arrest sentence after hitting one of his teachers. As punishment, his mother (Carrie-Anne Moss) cuts off his I-Tunes and X-Box Live and he is forced to a life of doing chores and staring out his windows at his neighbours. He notices the fellow across the street is having an affair with his maid, some new neighbours have a hot daughter and argue a lot. One of his other neighbours is quiet and keeps to himself.

�

After watching the evening news, he sees his quiet neighbour (David Morse) driving the same type of car as one connected with a murder victim. He starts watching and sees a variety of disturbing things happening at his house and begins to suspect him of being a serial killer.

�

The story line is rather predictable, but the director does a good job of keeping the tension high and there is a fair bit of suspense. David Morse brought a lot of intensity and does a great job as the villain, while most of the other actors are more passable. Carrie-Ann Moss does a so-so job as Kale�s mother. On a humourous side note, there is a stretch in the film where the boom mic is in the picture. It had the audience laughing for quite a while.
