Very similar to last year's "Eagle Eye," but with Shane West instead of Shia LaBeouf. This movie has a bit more intelligent script, but contains a lot less special effects (although there are several pretty good car chases). The theme of the U.S. government creating a machine for "national security" that then turns against them is nothing new and hardly science fiction these days, but the movies about it seem to be abundant. "Echelon Conspiracy" doesn't strike too far from the herd but it's still quite entertaining.

AMAZING! March 25, 2011

Okay, I know people say this is a copy of Eagle Eye, and if you look at the trailer they are alike, but honestly I believe it when they say Eagle Eye is the one that is like THIS movie. Echelon Conspiracy was done around same time Eagle Eye was, only difference is Eagle Eye was released in theaters first. I vote for this one to be quite honest. Seriously, this movie keeps you on your toes about what happens. ABSOLUTELY recommend this movie!

This whole movie just played SO lame....the actions the lead character takes...following commands from a phone, given to him by a computer with a mind of it's own. Just poorly exectuted from A to Z. Acting, scripting, screenplay, writing....It felt like 'b movie' quality all around. Guess that's why I'd never heard of it, 'til it went into Netflix pool of 'streamed to your tv' flicks, which are mostly clunkers, by and large!

just what I expected
I had seen the movie in the theater and so knew what to expect. Nice little action movie. Some good intense moments though a bit predictable in plot.
