Review of Disturbia

Disturbia (2007)
3/10
Forget the film! Enjoy your cola
27 February 2008
Father and son enjoy some meaningful bonding over a bit of product placement before tragedy strikes. His world turned upside down and his hormones running riot the son soon finds himself under house arrest - time for some more product placement and casual voyeurism which leads to suspicions that his neighbour is a serial killer. A variation on Rear Window aimed fairly and squarely at the teen market. If you aged 15 - 19 you'll probably give this film 7 or 8 out of 10 but any older than that and you'll probably be hard pushed to stick with it through to the end. The cynically high level of product placement (the opening scene certainly would like to teach the world to sing about marketing) is pretty alarming in a film so blatantly aimed at the youth market.
