Disturbia - 3 of 5 stars, thumbs up
I went in with basically no expectations, this was a sort of "just going to see a movie" movie. I think Shia LaBeouf is a very solid actor, and he is actually a character in a movie where it could have easily been a cardboard cutout role. I thought he and his friend Ronnie were solid and funny chracters. The chick was pretty weak, but overall the movie works enough to enjoy. It's definitely aimed at young teens, but I liked it. Far better than most thrillers going for that audience. Thumbs up.
And it's basically a flat-out remake of Rear Window without officially crediting it.
