Worth watching despite the fact that we've seen the plot before.

Rating: 8/10 (2 December 2008)

It's a formula we have seen before in films.I don't even need to mention that certain Hitchcock film that everyone compares this film to because just about everyone else does that.I will just say that if something is done well,it doesn't matter that we have seen the plot before.The point of every good thriller is to keep the viewer on their toes,and Disturbia does that very well.Particularly worthy of note is the performance of David Morse,who has amazing versatility as an actor and can play the hero as well as the villain with equal prowess.Everyone did a good job here.Disturbia will probably never be labeled a classic because another film with a similar plot has already claimed that prize,but it's worth watching just the same.
