Good entertaining thriller...

Rating: 6/10 (4 July 2014)

Whilse "Disturbia" is a rather predictable movie, it still makes for some good old wholesome entertainment.
The story is pretty straight forward; a young man named Kale confined to his house in house arrest for punching a teacher. With nothing but time on his hands, Kale starts observing the surrounding neighborhood through the lenses of a camera and binoculars. When events starts to pile up that sound surprisingly like a murder case on TV, Kale finds himself in deep as the secrets of the neighborhood is revealed.
What makes the movie work is the acting. I can't really claim to be much fan of Shia LaBeouf, but he did a great job in this movie. But the movie was superbly carried by David Morse.
The movie is filmed in a great way, with a very dynamic and right-in-the-midst-of-it-all sense to it, which adds a lot of suspense to the movie.
"Disturbia" is a fairly generic thriller story-wise, but it is still well worth watching.
