An Immensely Enjoyable Thriller...
What we have here is a great, enjoyable action movie that satisfies in every way an action movie could. However, it is not the most well-made film: almost all of the characters lack depth, the dialogue consists of nothing but "run!"s and "Hey! There's a wacky man with a gun behind you!"s, and, let's face it, we've seen this plot a billion times before. However, if you want a mile-a-minute chase movie with all the thrills and chills to fulfill any Friday movie night expectations, look no further. Violence is the main inapropriate thing about the film. Countless people are injured, as well as shot, exploded, etc. Some is bloody. There is one "f" word, and some variant of "s**t" is mixed in with almost every sentence. There isn't any sexual content to speak of. The film could be too intense and frightening for kids under 13.

Makes my head spin
What a joy ride! This was extremely action packed all the way through. Although some think the story was totally unreal, I believe something like this could totally happen. I do believe that cell phones are tracked anyway, especially the top notch ones like the iphone and blackberry. This thriller was intense and sometimes hard to keep up with, but I think Shia LaBeouf's acting is superb. He's terrific & any of his fans will enjoy it. Not for the light-hearted...you might faint or feel nauseous.

Fun, but more vulgar than expected
This movie was a fun ride, but totally ridiculous and more vulgar than I expected. I saw the movie a couple days ago, and although there were other elements present, it's the language that still stands out in my mind. Plus the completely ridiculous plot. But, all that said, it was ultimately entertaining. I'm glad I finally saw the movie, but I don't think I'll watch it again.

Definitely NOT my favorite
It was an interesting movie, though I thought they might have overcomplicated things a bit. The characters were half-decent, and the action was fortunately not as gory as it could have been. But while a relatively entertaining movie, I was entirely taken aback by how much language was used. While it was nothing I hadn't heard before, I was increasingly alarmed by how much swearing they could fit into a PG-13 movie. I appreciated that there weren't high levels of immorality, but I really do wish that someone would make an action movie in which they weren't swearing their heads off every three minutes.

Kept me on the edge of my seat
The movie started out slow and a little ridiculous, but at about the halfway point I was sucked in. This story has been done in countless movies, but this brought something new to it. Special effects and graphics were really good. Better than I was expecting and had some interesting points. A little too much swearing.

I thought it would've been better without the horrible language!!!!
This was a very good suspense movie, but I thought Common Sense's review had said only the: "s--t", "a-hole", "f-ing" and "b--ch" words were going to be used. As if that wasn't bad enough, I really wanted to see it, so reluctantly watched it. I have you know that the most horrible word of them all was used at least 6 times in this movie, and that was the "G-D" word. Like I said, the movie was AWESOME, but the language was disgusting!!!!

Shia is always good but younger teens will like this more than older teens. Lots of Strong Language for a PG-13.

Good movie...offensive language
Good movie. Lots of action. Holds your interest. I didn't like all the 'g**d***' words in this movie which COMMON SENSE failed to warn viewers about. I, personally, find GD more offensive than the s**t and f-words...

Intriguing
Eagle Eye is an action pact thriller, that has a decent plot. The movie, pushes the rating of PG-13, although i think it is still appropiate for 13 year olds. I am saying its pushes the limit by the way the rate the movies, not my opinion. 12and up. But mature 12 year olds. Language is strong, including several shits, ass, and a**hole, D**n, and a f*ck. Great action thriller. Shila Labough( not sure how to spell that) at his best performance of his life.

awesome
I loved this movie! I thought it was going to be an okay movie with bad acting and even worse special effects but instead I loved it. The acting choices were well made and it had a great plot throughout the whole movie. It is a little violent though and there's a bit of an inappropriate scene in the beginning, but besides that there's nothing too bad.

THIS MOVIE ROCKS!!!!!!
it's not that bad i think it should be for kids 11 and up, thyere were a few F-words and a couple of S-words and the violence was pretty bad but it was still a great movie.
