Critics Consensus

Aside from its clichéd resolution, Disturbia is a tense, subtle thriller with a noteworthy performance from Shia LaBeouf.

Disturbia does not shy away from occasional teen angst, and the influence of Rear Window is unmistakable.

Isn't going to win any prizes for originality, but the new teen thriller understands its genre quite well, providing a solid film with some tense, creepy moments delivered in a straightforward manner.

It was good, but it could have been a better experience if it wasn't so "American".

Disturbia is a suspenseful horror-thriller starring ⭐️ Shia LaBeouf, and honestly, I think it’s one of his most impressive performances. The story follows a teenager under house arrest who begins to suspect that his neighbor is a serial killer. The twist? He can’t leave his house, so he’s forced to witness terrifying events unfold from his windows. I found the film to be incredibly engaging from start to finish. The suspense was constant, and it kept me locked in the entire time. Shia LaBeouf does a phenomenal job portraying a young man struggling to convince everyone that what he’s seeing is real—while they all assume he’s just being paranoid. His performance truly carried the emotional tension of the film. I also really enjoyed the supporting cast, the creepy villain, and especially the unnerving and clever behavior of the killer. The way everything unfolds is smart, stylish, and perfectly paced. The director nailed the atmosphere, and the writing team did a great job with the misdirection, making the audience second-guess everything right alongside the characters. Disturbia is a tightly-wound thriller with just the right amount of psychological tension and mystery. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys suspenseful stories with strong performances and twists that actually land.

For a Shia LaBeouf star vehicle that's a blueprint Rear Window knock-off, Disturbia is surprisingly entertaining.

Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas de são bacaninhas, o elenco é mais ou menos, e quase ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, a história é mais ou menos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes para fazer o filme ser bom.
