disturbia023.jpg (379 K) After his father's death, Kale (Shia LaBeouf) becomes sullen, withdrawn, and troubled - so much so that he finds himself under a court-ordered sentence of house arrest. His mother, Julie (Carrie-Anne Moss), works night and day to support herself and her son, only to be met with indifference and lethargy.

The walls of his house begin to close in on Kale. He becomes a voyeur as his interests turn outside the windows of his suburban home towards those of his neighbors, one of which Kale begins to suspect is a serial killer. But, are his suspicions merely the product of cabin fever and his overactive imagination?

Cool stuff. Cool movie.
Peter Travers
Rolling Stone
LaBeouf excels, as does Aaron Yoo as his horny friend and Sarah Roemer as the bikini babe who conveniently decorates the pool next door.

"B-"
Owen Gleiberman
Entertainment Weekly
The director, D.J. Caruso, has a bit of fun with cell-phone cameras employed as improvised teen surveillance devices, and David Morse, as the bad-apple neighbor, once again plays the audience with his hulking, softly dimpled sleaze, his suggestion of dominating intelligence as a mask for violence.

Rear Window meets the iTunes era in fun, slick suspense pic.
John DeFore
Hollywood Reporter
Although it begins with a jolt, the picture, written by Christopher B. Landon and Carl Ellsworth, enjoys taking its time before introducing the suspense element.

With Hitchcock in its rear window, bland voyeur thriller does its best not to perturb(ia) you
Robert Wilonsky
Village Voice
There's not one single bombshell dropped in Disturbia; everyone is exactly who you think they are and does exactly what you think they'll do precisely when you think they'll do it.
