We just got EagleEye on BluRay from Netflix, and I have to admit, I was skeptical because of Shia LaBeouf and whether or not he could handle this type of role. We’ve seen this type of movie before, remember Enemy of the State. As we get into the new digital age, we look at setting presidences where none exist before. Our society is one of a letigious foundation, but how do we deal with these new frontiers and protecting that which we hold to be true. Freedom of information and personal freedoms can be shut down at what cost to national security and the protection of the whole?

While LaBeoufs acting wasn’t all that great, the story line was fairly good (up until the ending). The whole reason the Aria needed LaBeouf was because his twin brother locked the system out of going through with its end of days similation. Isn’t it odd that such a powerful computer can’t break through layers and layers of encryption, but can easily hack into every system from cell phones to traffic to video cameras, etc? Seems a bit far fetched. Lets just say this one I will pass on adding to the collection!
