Shia of Disturbia

I think I start to love this young actor: Shia LaBeouf. I've watched 2 of his movies and he can bring a very interesting character in the way he uttered the dialog. Actually both of his characters: as Sam Witwicky in Transformer and Kale Brecht in Disturbia looks similar, as a slightly outcast just average teenager who got a lifetime rock experience. Meeting and befriend with Alien robots n the first movie and be a voyeur and identify a serial killer and then got himself and his mother in a danger.

At this point, then his true potential hasn't been fully revealed yet. But reading all the critics, mentioned that he was one of the potential actors to be in the future, plus he got involved in lots of promosing big project such as Indiana Jones.

One funny interview with him: when he was asked what was the meaning of his name. He replied Shia is Hebrew for Praise the Lord and La Boeuf is French for the beef, so together, his name means: Praise Lord for the beef:).

Well, back to the movie: Disturbia is a story of a teenager, Kale Brecht, who lives with his single mother. After an incident of him attacking his spanish teacher, he was under police supervision to be home arrest with the alarm attached in the leg. His mother cuts the cable, then he got bored inside his room and started to play with the binocular and peeping his neighbours. Start from the 3 naughty little boys who secretly watching porn in their room, a nice looking new girl, to a weird guy lives alone.

Kale then suspected the man to be a serial killer, which we led to believing that he was right, then wrong then right and this threaten his monther who fell into the killer's hostage.

This movie could be a normal suspense/thriller movie.. things made it different is the story: a suspense started from a home arrested boy is quite new. and yet again, Shia as Kale can show an interesting point of attention of this movie.

One thing caught my attention (and also several other as I read imdb review) is the detail of picture and sound .. small things in Kale's room looks so lively and thorough.. to bad I just watched this is a dvd, I should be going to the cinema instead!
