Shia LaBeouf in Eagle Eye

I mentioned the upcoming release of Eagle Eye a few months ago. It’s being released in the UK this Friday.
In Eagle Eye, Shia LaBeouf is joined by Michelle Monaghan (Made of Honor – already out on DVD)
I’m not quite sure what to make of the film’s plot, so I’ll reserve judgement until I’ve actually seen the film.
It sounds a lot like the premise that was used in Enemy of the State, namely the electronic Big Brother gone mad:
The idea for “Eagle Eye” was hatched several years ago from the mind of executive producer Steven Spielberg. “Steven’s initial concept focused on the idea that technology is everywhere,” says co-producer Pete Chiarelli. “It’s all around us – what would happen if it turned against you? What if the technology that surrounds us, that we love and depend on, suddenly was used on us in ways that could cause harm and was completely out of our control?”
“Steven always wanted people to walk out of the theater and turn off their cell phones and BlackBerrys, because they were so scared,” writer/producer Alex Kurtzman recalls – much in the way audiences feared swimming in the ocean after they saw Spielberg’s summer blockbuster “Jaws” in 1975.
The story was in development for several years, because at the time Spielberg first conceived the idea, “he thought that it would seem too much like science fiction,” Kurtzman adds.
Now it’s entirely plausible…how will it affect you?

Um ok. While that might work as a film, it might not.
In any case for those of you who are into Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan here are a couple of more photos for you:
