Shia LaBeouf (CONSTANTINE, I, ROBOT) is a young talent to be reckoned with, as he demonstrates in this genre-spanning film from director D.J. Caruso. Part teenage romantic comedy,...
more...part horror flick, DISTURBIA stars LaBeouf as the troubled Kale, who is confined to his home under house arrest after he punches out his Spanish teacher in the middle of class. Kale's array of available diversions dwindle considerably after his mum (Carrie Ann Moss, MEMENTO) shuts off his X-Box and his iTunes, and he turns to voyeurism instead, carefully noting the daily activities of his neighbours. These include the swimming schedule of the hot girl who just moved in next door, Ashley (Sarah Roemer, THE GRUDGE 2), whom he ogles with his best friend, the class clown, Ronnie (Aaron Yoo, THE BEDFORD DIARIES). When Ashley unexpectedly shows up and wants to know what the boys are doing behind their binoculars, they concoct a story about their neighbour, Mr. Turner (David Morse, PROOF OF LIFE), and their suspicions that he is the serial killer currently on the loose. The teens' subsequent stakeout makes them increasingly convinced that this is in fact the case, and their creepy interactions with Turner bring them ever closer to learning the dark secret that lies inside his impenetrable suburban existence. Despite a slight identity crisis and distracting product placements, DISTURBIA is carried by the strong performance of its lead character, and manages to charm with its portrayal of young love.

Welcome to Disturbia
Review of Disturbia (DVD) by brodiegirl

Advantages: Great performance
Disadvantages: tiny bit of cheese

...This does not differ in Disturbia as Labeouf shows off his skills and you can 100% feel is horror when his father dies, the terror when he begins his paranoia and his love for the girl next door. His emotions are fantastically with you through the whole film. Performance= ***** Sarah Roemer ******************************************************************* ********* Due to Roemer's performance in 2006's The Grudge as Lacey, she has been thrust ...

Every killer lives next door to someone
Review of Disturbia (DVD) by Jonni_boi

Advantages: great film
Disadvantages: predictable

I personally love this movie, but yet again, I love quite a few films so actually I can't possibly say that I loved this film as you'd probably question the meaning of my use of the word love due to the fact that I'm more than likely going to say that about almost every single film review I decide to write. So what do I actually mean by "I loved this film" Well I mean that it was really good and since I have watched it twice, means that it must be ... Read review

Suburban Disturbance
Review of Disturbia (DVD) by afy9mab

Shia is Brilliant
Review of Disturbia (DVD) by zoltan8

Advantages: Brilliant acting and in some parts suspenseful
Disadvantages: Predictable slow in parts

Good mix between a Teen Romantic Comedy and a Teen Horror. Shia LaBeouf is an excellent actor and definately made the movie a better watch. It had a Brilliant start to the movie - With Kale (Shia) and his dad spending time together then on the way home involved in a car crash. Actually gave me a bit of a shock and really caught my attention and drew me into the film. It then goes forward to one year later, and shows how seeing his Father die has ... Read review

Eye Spy Disturbia
Review of Disturbia (DVD) by Rhys_Davison

Advantages: Tense Funny and a bit of romance what more do you want
Disadvantages: camera angles were a little annoying at parts

Disturbia is a thriller packed full of tension. It starts off a bit slow but when Kale (the guy in Transformers) get's put on house arrest. It has some quite funny moments as he spys on his neighbours, whilst he is bored out of his mind. Then "the girl next door" moves in, which fills the movie with a bit of teen romance. After a couple of days Kale and his mates start to notice some strange things in his neighbourhood that need investigating - thats ... Read review

Quick review of Disturbia DVD
Review of Disturbia (DVD) by Mitchellrox

Disturbia was one of those films that you saw the trailer to, and you just had to see it! This film did not fail to impress me, such a gripping storyline with comedy elements throughout. Shia LaBeouf makes the films along with his co-teenage actors whom discover that their quiet suburban street is not all what it seems. This is what a teen summer is about, a stakeout with your mates, watching the girl next door, discovering a serial killer! well maybe not the last part, but all in all this film is THE ONE to watch!
