Movie Review: Eagle Eye

Been very busy this past few weeks so posts have been shelved and now I have a lot of backlog. Anyways, this is a sci-fi movie conceptualized a few years back and when it finally got a go signal the technology sort of caught up so some aspects of the movie are not so far fetched. For an action movie this was great! A lot of chase scenes, stunts, freak events, explosions, the whole shebang. But basically this is a sci-fi movie so involves technology, and for this they needed an AI that began thinking for itself. It took matters into its own hands and that's when the trouble starts.

Although I could give high praises for this movie but it still is not without glitches. Some of the things/parts/events were so far fetched like remote operated machinery on the public network, control of power lines on the public network, and almost all of the cctv cameras were on a public network? Aside from this, if you slightly tone down your reality meter this movie will live you in awe. Overall the movie is up there for action and sci-fi flicks, plot was good, story was good, acting was great, even the effects were great. Shia LaBeouf could really pull-off an action/sci-fi movie and goes to show he's on the road of being one of the great actors out there!
