Trivia:
According to dates on security cameras seen on-screen, the film takes place in late January 2009. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: The movie mentioned that the cargo compartment of the C-17 Globemaster III was unpressurized, and the characters required a lowered heart rate due to the lack of oxygen. This is the case when flying aerial delivery missions with the rear door open, but the flight in the movie took off and landed with all pallets on board meaning the cargo door would have been closed the whole flight, and have normal pressurization. moreSoundtrack:

Eagle Eye is a well-paced, action-packed popcorn movie up at the same level as most of Shia LeBouf's other movies. It had just enough mystery to keep a intellectual interest throughout the explosions, horrific deaths (though, of course, the rating meant they were off-screen), and originally awkward interaction between the two main characters. While an attentive viewer will guess most of the "surprises" before they are revealed, the question as to how the movie will ultimately end makes up for any disappointment.
The acting was better than expected, the storyline as original as it could hope to be, and, all in all, it is certainly a movie I suggest to fans of action, Shia, or government conspiracies.
