| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfThis latest take on Bush-era paranoia and cell phone alarm might arrive in theaters somewhat dramatically moldy and short-sheeted in the budget department, yet it's actually a more rewarding sit than Eagle Eye if viewed with minimal attention paid |
| SSG SyndicateSusan GrangerThe biggest mystery is how this high-tech whodunit-gone-awry got a theatrical release and didn't go directly to dvd. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekPresumably it was the fact that the DVD release schedule for the week was already filled that explains the escape of this picture to theatres--it really belongs on a video store shelf or a late-night slot on a non-premium cable network. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. PuccioThe movie isn't so much outright bad as it is simply flat and routine. |
| Apollo GuideJamie GilliesIn the right hands, this premise might a good movie make -- a fable like Aladdin's lamp updated for the iPhone era. This convoluted and half-baked conspiracy thriller does not. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliEchelon Conspiracy is a more evocative title than a movie this stupid deserves. |
| The A.V. ClubScott TobiasUnlike, say, "Eagle Eye," Echelon Conspiracy doesn't put enough conviction behind its stupidity. It's mostly just bland. |
| Boston GlobeJoel BrownThere's nothing in Echelon Conspiracy as suspenseful or entertaining as your average episode of "24." |
| Los Angeles TimesGlenn WhippAll Echelon can offer is some wobbly action and views of Red Square. |
| Houston Community NewspapersGary BrownEchelon Conspiracy is a pale imitation of Eagle Eye, not exactly a good movie to begin with. |
