Visionary director Duncan Jones is back with Source Code a film that maintains the intellect and sophistication of his first work Moon, but this time with whole lot more punch.

This one goes by the name of Eagle Eye and trust me, it’s a doozy. I’d like to be a responsible film critic and give you a short synopsis without giving to much away, but Eagle Eye borrows from so many films it’s hard to know where to begin. So please accept this tiny spoiler alert instead.
