for a movie not having excessive gore, Disturbia was a successful thriller solely relying on mood and suspense. even though the story was predictable and familiar, it managed to stay intense and creepy, giving occasional fright to keep us engaged. thanks to his popularity earned through the Transformers (2007-2011) series, Shia LaBeouf may not be a handsome lead cast, he was believable enough. even though the movie wasn't exactly unique and its characters were mostly underused, it was still quite entertaining.
