If you didn’t get enough excitement from Santa, Eagle Eye on Blu-ray might just be what you’re looking for. This thrill-ride goes the entire 2 hours of the film without a break and will have you on the edge of your seat!

Shia LaBeouf stars as Jerry Shaw, a college drop out who’s life changes when he goes to deposit a check from his dad. From here on out he must choose his actions wisely as each can have large consequences. Eventually he is led to Rachel Holloman (Michelle Monaghan) who is under the same circumstances and the two must find a balance as they work together.

Without spoiling the film, this one requires a little bit of imagination of the viewer. A lot of the film is based on technology that is bit beyond what is possible, but then again this is a movie meant to entertain you for two hours.

As far as extras go, they all come in hi-def and literally pop off the screen.

You’ll get the Deleted Scenes with four never before seen segments, including an Alternate Ending.

Asymmetrical Warfare: The Making of Eagle Eye takes you from the background of the story to the sets and locations. It also gives you a good look at how much of the film was done without CG and how involved the actors were with their own stunts.

Eagle Eye on Location: Washington, D.C. gives you an interesting background on the buildings that were used in the film and a beautiful look at the Library of Congress.

Is My Cell Phone Spying On Me? looks at the reality of technology in our lives and how our privacy has eroded. It also talks about cell phone tracking is more common place and that your activities can be tracked.

Shall We Play A Game? includes a ten minute chat with the director D.J. Caruso and his mentor John Badham, director of War Games.

Road Trip explores the many locations that were used on in the film.

Gag Reel is 7 minutes of nothing but fun on the set!

Even though Eagle Eye has intense action scenes, it stays away from disturbing visuals. At times the language can get a little intense.
