I, for one, think Shia LaBeouf is always fun to watch. While I didn’t think Eagle Eye was a good film because its absurdity level vastly overwhelmed anything resembling brainless entertainment, there are some bright spots. The forces behind the mayhem set these two on a collision course that feeds an increasingly elaborate and ludicrous plot that may entertain in spectacle as long as you leave all brain cells at the door (seriously, all of them). Rachel has her life turned upside down as well as a mysterious female voice tells her she has to do “this” and “that” if she wants her son to live. Things change when Jerry comes home from his twin brother’s funeral to find terrorist paraphernalia filling his apartment, an additional $750,000 in his bank account and the FBI pushing his face into the floor. Jerry works at Copy Cabana and Rachel is a single mom trying to make ends meet. Jerry Shaw (LaBeouf) and Rachel Holloman (Monaghan) are two average citizens. If you thought instant satellite imaging was outlandish get ready for what Eagle Eye has to offer.
Caruso once again brings Shia LaBeouf, accompanied by Michelle Monaghan, along for a ride best described as Enemy of the State times 100. Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan in Eagle EyeĮagle Eye is an absurd big-brother techno thriller that tries way too hard and doesn’t even take advantage of what boils down to a rather cool plotline.
