Before my bitterness comes to full fruition, let me first say that despite my criticism, Eagle Eye was entertaining.  With that said, this movie could be 100x more entertaining and worth my while if the makers paid more attention to the script and acting.  Let me first start with the acting, specifically the main actor, Shia LaBeouf.  I just don’t get it; these so-called actors are a dime a dozen in Hollywood and have as much depth to them as the dookie I just dropped in the crapper.  Don’t get me wrong, Shia serves this movie just right with the exception of those never ending close-ups where each shot I feared a herpe breakout on Shia's lower lip (maybe Shia just has lip injections?).  Hey, I give credit to this movie for adding a little gritty reality to their cast along with main actress’s bumpy face, but let me move on to a couple of other more famous actors who failed miserably.  Billy Bob Thorton (lead FBI agent) – what has happened to you?  I remember the days when you actually acted (Sling Blade), and now you’re merely another Tom Cruise playing Billy Bob in another movie.  I know Spencer thinks Rosario Dawson is amazing but same goes for you and your one-dimensional, plastic role. 

Now let me go to the heart of my frustrations.  When the main actors aren’t in absurd car chases and jumping out of windows, this movie briefly touches on some very scary realities that lie ahead for the American people.  Instead of actually experiencing the power of film, the viewer is left on a wild goose chase that defies reality.  If you’re going to make a movie dealing with such serious issues, make it real for the people.  I understand people sometimes go to the movies to be entertained, but save this style of movie making for the doomsday movies.  To end, after walking out of the movie I heard a lady make a comment to her boyfriend before headed to the Jon that sums up this movie just perfectly – “Ridiculous!”
