The start of this fall season in the movies is an awesome one! From the amazing Stephen Spielberg along with his new "apprentice" Shia LaBeouf comes a new action movie to eclipse all other conspiracy theory movies. The "Wanted" of conspiracy theories if I may add.

The movie is so action packed that you will really need to set a reminder to break in and catch a breath every now and them. While at the same time, tapping at all what the US military and government has in secret defence programs in a very dramatic way. Spielberg cracks the illusive action/drama formula and very successfully, that you would be hoping they really don't choose you next!

I was more excited watching this one than I did watching "Wanted", funny thing, the rumors that certain government agencies had the capability to eavesdrop on your conversations even when you're not on the phone has been circulating for few years. I guess, we're at a point where that has moved from science fiction to science fact!

The problem with all "defence" systems is that at some point they lose track of their main objective of protecting the people, towards protecting themselves, and the regime. That's the thought that kept circulating in my mind throughout the movie.

Anyway, the movie is very entertaining, and has the capacity to thrill you to the bones. It does try too hard at times, but remains entertaining and suspenseful from the first seconds till the last!

Note to computer engineers of the world. Would you kindly never create a super computer that looks like Hal 9000? Thank you!

I heard about movie Eagle eye and then start to search about the story.
Hard to find many articles. Most of them just could not give what is it about. But I found a good article on http://blog.80millionmoviesfree.com/in-theaters/eagle-eye-running-to-revenge-unknown-mystery after reading that I got a clear picture of the movie. Interesting and characteristic one. More than action movie it contain good story behind, still need to know is there a political background as they say Didn’t look as it was on the trailer. May be it is hidden behind.

I don't think the movie has any political agenda. It did have a lot of character though.
I hate to spoil the plot or I would have talked more about the similarities of the main story with few other similar themed but less interesting movies.
All I can say is that it was very entertaining and a must see
