5:27p.m. *Cinema — Disturbia

Disturbia (2007)

• So I finally saw this.

• It was pretty good.

• I’d love to see Shia LaBeouf play a completely different character than the one he keeps playing. I guess he’ll be able to when he gets older.

• Even so, he is still fun to watch.

• Where exactly was his mother the entire movie? I get that she worked all of the time, but really, umm..

• David Morse seems to play fantastic assholes (remember him in House?).

• Speaking of, whenever I see Matt Craven, I think of Indian Summer, in which he played a fantastic asshole.

• I just realized that Mike Binder wrote and directed Indian Summer, which kind of freaks me out, considering I just saw, reviewed, and really liked Reign Over Me.

• Back to Disturbia, I thought the suspense was very well done. Very well balanced.

• Shia LaBeouf is always getting super hot girls. Eh.

• Any teacher who can use the loss of a parent against a student, no matter how shitty the student is, should not be a teacher.
