The new hip thriller, Disturbia, has had everyone talking recently. After coming in first place at the box office two weeks in a row, it appears that audiences are completely fascinated by it. Although Disturbia does have its moments of intense suspicion, we have seen all of this before.
Disturbia tells the story of Kale (played by up-and-coming Shia LeBouf) and how he has been put on house arrest. After becoming completely restless from staying indoors all day, Kale decides to spy on his neighbors, one of which may be a cold blooded serial killer (played by David Morse).
The beginning of this film puts you immediately on the edge of your seat, however for the next hour you are basically following Kale around the house as he causes problems for his poor mother (played by Carrie Ann Moss), hangs out with his best friend, and tries to swoon the girl next door. Right before you are about to leave the theater out of boredom, the last fifteen minutes of the film makes up for all of the time (and money) you once believed you had wasted. Disturbia was o.k., but why pay $10 to see it in theaters, when you can wait for it on dvd for only $3? At least you can do laundry or pay your bills during the boring hour.
