sub-par teen movie

Rating: 2/10 (8 August 2007)

While it has a moment or so of entertainment, DISTURBIA is not a good film and shouldn't be seen by anyone who loves thrillers. Everyone know the plot a la REAR WINDOW. What troubles me the most are those stupid plot holes which is laziness on the script writers part. The ending is the worse thing about the movie. The killer disappears for a while, the surfaces again? Why the wait? With so much going on with screaming and the noise of the fight, no other neighbor's notice? When the girl jumps out of the pool, she presumably goes to her parents and calls the police. Where were they? They come so late? The killers house is like the "house of horrors". Who can make a place with so many secret walls, floors and compartments? You'd have to have a mansion, not a suburban home to configurate such a place. Would a killer really settle down in the burbs? With his killings, why leave all the windows uncovered for anyone to see? Doesn't anyone think about these things when making a movie? Don't they sit around a table and discuss impausabilities? Do they think audiences are going ae not going to think? Of course these types of movies aren't made for the general public, but for kids who don't think I guess. Anyway, a waste of time and forget this one.
