USA Today | Claudia PuigAdd Critic to Favorites

A terrorist thriller that isn't so much suspenseful as overbearing. Though it aspires to be an intriguing political cautionary tale, the movie is mostly about the feverish and jarringly choreographed chase scenes.Read the full review

ReelViews | James BerardinelliAdd Critic to Favorites

There is no truth to the rumor that free frontal lobotomies will be performed at the entrance to all theaters showing Eagle Eye.Read the full review

Entertainment Weekly | Lisa SchwarzbaumAdd Critic to Favorites

A brain-squandering thriller.Read the full review

The Hollywood Reporter | Michael RechtshaffenAdd Critic to Favorites

A shrill, far-fetched thriller.Read the full review

San Francisco Chronicle | Mick LaSalleAdd Critic to Favorites

The movie doesn't have three brain cells to rub together, but the premise carries it a long way.Read the full review

The Onion (A.V. Club) | Nathan RabinAdd Critic to Favorites

Washington Post | Neely TuckerAdd Critic to Favorites

A sometimes entertaining flick that makes a lot of noise but doesn't have much to say.Read the full review

Rolling Stone | Peter TraversAdd Critic to Favorites

Questions: Did everyone involved in this botched thriller OD on speed? Does jimmy-legs director D.J. Caruso think if he slowed down the action we'd figure out how stupid the plot is?Read the full review

Variety | Robert KoehlerAdd Critic to Favorites

The picture's first 35 minutes sizzle until a Byzantine plot nudges the story toward near-parody in the final act.Read the full review
