"Not Bad Thriller!"

Rating: 6/10 (18 January 2016)

This 2007 thriller stars Shia LaBeouf, Sarah Roemer, Carrie-Anne Moss and David Morse. This focuses on troubled teen, Kale Brecht (LaBeouf) who has just lost his father in a car accident. He ends up under house arrest after assaulting his teacher. He tries keeping himself occupied around the house and decides to spy on the neighborhood. Soon, he suspects his neighbor, Robert Turner (Morse) is a serial killer, but also finds romance with Ashley Carlson (Roemer), the new girl next door in the process. Moss (the Matrix) plays Kale's mom, Julie. This isn't a bad thriller with a bit of dramatic moments mixed in. The cast is decent and the film is sort of a modernized version of "Rear Window." I recommend this.
