First Look
New Eagle Eye Poster Looks Both Ways
Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on July 14, 2008
At face value, there might not be enough out in the wild to really have you all in a tizzy about the upcoming Dreamworks thriller Eagle Eye, which stars Shia LaBeouf as a regular dude caught up in a vast conspiracy controlled by a mysterious voice on the other side of a telephone. But I will say that you should be at least interested based on some of the parties involved. It is directed by D.J. Caruso, whose previous work includes The Salton Sea and last year’s surprise thriller Disturbia. He’s a perfectly capable director with a very clean visual style. As well, the cast is also solid — we can’t ignore the fact that Shia LaBeouf is a good actor and Michelle Monaghan has also never really let us down, despite being in some pretty bad flicks over the past few years (Made of Honor and The Heartbreak Kid, to name a few). So as you can see, this film has a solid lineup. And now, it has a poster (Click to Enlarge):
Eagle Eye hits theaters on September 26, 2008. For more, check out the recently released trailer.

I liked “Disturbia” more than the average critic (and pretty much the same as the average Joe), and I agree with you that the parties involved in this particular film are all very talented.
The poster might not be particularly amazing, but it nevertheless manages to make me even *more* interested in the movie. That, coupled with the really tense trailer, is making the film look better and better by the minute.
Yup, tit seems “Eagle Eye” will be really good motion picture. At least it’s got the potential. Hope it delivers. =D

How many floating heads can you fit on a poster? :)
