In the more engaging first two-thirds of this suburban thriller, Shia LaBeouf's Kale Brecht is put under house arrest and like Jimmy Stewart's L B 'Jeff' Jefferies finds himself with nothing better to do than spy on his neighbours, but in the less engaging last third, this Rear Window premise gives way to an uninteresting serial killer thriller with David Morse obviously trying to channel Raymond Burr's Lars Thorwald as he stares back down the binocular lens but nothing else is trying very hard, least of all the writers.
★★★☆☆
