They are threatened with dire consequences if they refuse to comply. Shaw returns from the funeral of his twin, Ethan to find $751,000 in his bank account and his apartment filled with explosives and forged documents. He is asked to vacate his apartment by an unknown woman as it is about to be raided by FBI. He refuses to believe and is apprehended. The mysterious woman arranges for his escape and he is joined by a single mother, Rachel who is coerced into working for the mysterious woman under the threats of killing her son Sam, a trumpet player on his way to Washington, D.C. The situation takes turn for the worse when these innocent victims are proclaimed nation’s most wanted fugitives.

Eagle Eye - Trailer
Movie Errors
How ever good a movie may be, there are always a few loop holes that can be found out even in the best of the works. Here are a few mistakes of the movie, which probably the director\producers of the movie could not locate, but sharp eyes of the viewers couldn’t miss them.
When the Secretary of Defense leads Agent Perez to the B36 floor, there are Marines under arms and covered (have their hats on) yet they do not salute. Any Marine under arms is required to salute any higher ranking officer, including the President and Vice President, and would have been required to salute the Secretary of Defense, who is in his chain of command.
When Agent Perez gets out of the cooling pool at the end of the movie, she grabs a metal rod and shoves it into the eye of Eagle Eye. When she does this all kinds of electrical sparks fly, and even though she is completely sopping wet, including her hands, she is not electrocuted.
When Agent Perez’s helicopter takes off from “Chicago” after the recovery of the Cayenne, her helicopter has a California flag on its tail. read more . . .

Movie News
SCADA cyber security lessons from the movie ‘Eagle Eye’
November 13, 2008: In the movie “Eagle Eye,” several severe infrastructure security breaches are accomplished before any one involved becomes aware that such breaches had occurred. While the movie does depict some completely outrageous things (a transmission line over voltage scenario? What was that?), this lack of security monitoring is not so far-fetched, and there are lessons there that SCADA system control engineers should heed. That’s the contention of Matt Luallen and Steve Hamburg in their new blog, Industrial Cyber Security, available through the home page of Control Engineering.
‘Eagle Eye’: More ridiculous than thrilling
November 13, 2008: What’s a summer action-thriller aimed at becoming a blockbuster doing at the beginning of winter? Odd as it may be, there is no particular season to enjoy watching cars smashing into each other or police vehicles overturning. D J Caruso’s Eagle Eye comes from the mind of the mighty Steven Spielberg, and this is reason enough for everyone to sit up and pay attention. read more . . .
Movie Review
D.J. Caruso’s latest movie deals with contemporary paranoia spawned by the invasion of technology in every aspect of our lives. Here, the everyday pieces of technology take the place of a character that has life of its own and there is no escape from it. The movie is packed with non- stop action. Caruso has the knack of keeping things moving with such panache that one tend to ignore the inadequacies of the plot. The movie is most fun when LaBeouf and Monaghan are sent on a wild goose chase by the unknown woman with traffic signals change at will and TV screens at Mc Donald suddenly turning coerce. If you are looking for some mind blowing action without delving too much into reason and rationale, then this is one movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Happy watching.
