Disturbia Reviews

Disturbia does not shy away from occasional teen angst, and the influence of Rear Window is unmistakable.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 23, 2023

Shia LaBeouf has never been better than in this teen Rear Window...

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 3, 2022

Isn't going to win any prizes for originality, but the new teen thriller understands its genre quite well, providing a solid film with some tense, creepy moments delivered in a straightforward manner.

| Original Score: B- | Nov 21, 2019

When it comes to recalling the best of Hitchcock's important film lessons, here is a decent movie that at least remembers the buildup is just as important as the jolt.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 9, 2015

Unfortunately, what starts out as a rounded and intelligent thriller soon turns up the silly for an OTT finale that betrays the tense and well-plotted build-up.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 17, 2011

A feature-length alt-rock-soundtrack shill that merges with violin strains that would make even Bernard Herrmann blanch.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 7, 2010

...an unabashedly high-concept premise that's primarily employed to surprisingly positive effect...

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 14, 2009

In addition to borrowing the idea behind Rear Window, Disturbia pays homage to Hitchcock in its sense of pacing, as well, in its use of the Hitchcock's signature slow build.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 23, 2008

Like its attractive leads, director DJ Caruso's smart teen thriller may be self-conscious, but it is undeniably appealing,

Full Review | Jul 23, 2008

As a thriller, this is mechanical and predictable - barely one-step away from cookie-cutter formulaic - and yet the film actually works up a decent amount of genuine feeling, thanks to the cast of characters.

| Jul 10, 2008

With all the promise to be the year's best teen scream flick, Disturbia gets lost while overly trying to please its demographic.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 21, 2008

Disturbia takes it's time setting up the thrills and Shia LaBeouf actually acts like a high schooler.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 3, 2008

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 14, 2007

A limp teenage by-the-numbers version of Rear Window.

| Sep 22, 2007

One of the big sleepers of the year.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Sep 21, 2007

The parts of the film that work...are surprisingly due mostly to the presence of Shia LaBeouf.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Sep 20, 2007

Hitchcock would turn in his grave.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 14, 2007

Take along a good book - possibly Ted Lewis's The Serpent - and read it by the light of the effulgent clichés.
