Best thriller I've seen in a long time!

Rating: 7/10 (11 August 2007)

A few months back, I heard about this movie and wasn't really that excited about it. Don't get me wrong, it looked like it had potential, but I thought it was going to be an okay movie. To my surprise it wasn't! I watch shows like Ebert & Roper, read online reviews, newspaper reviews and all of the critics agreed, that this is a great film. One of the main complaints was that it looked too much like Alfred Hitchcock's:Rear Window. However, it seemed very original in it's own way,I liked the film and think that it is one of the best this year. I also must say, Shia LeBeouf gives an amazing performance; he has matured from his days on Even Stevens. I loved his performances this year in Disturbia and Transformers, he proves that he can be comical, but very serious at the same time. He reminds me of a young Tom Hanks. If he keeps going the way he is right now, then he is going be be a great actor.
