Eye in the Sky was a movie I knew nothing about before I viewed it. Based on the promotional poster, I thought this would be a science fiction movie. It was by no means a science fiction movie. The best way to describe it is a war on terror movie that focuses on how mission objectives and moral decisions are sometimes. Regarding movie comparisons, I would say it is American Sniper meets Lone Survivor meets Platoon meets Lions for Lambs meets 2015’s little-known Good Kill (as a quick aside, I would suggest seeing this movie before seeing Eye in the Sky. You’ll learn more about drone missions. Eye in the Sky expects you to know a little about these without explaining them). That is certainly a lot to compare. Ironically, American Sniper and Lone Survivor were my favorite movies of the year (2014 and 2013, respectively), while Platoon was my third favorite movie of 1986. I mention this because I was not the biggest fan of Eye in the Sky. I know the movie has done well with the critics (92% on Rotten Tomatoes), but it was a little loose and not drawn to the story as well as I could have. This and the combination of a clunky beginning while also being a movie shot mostly in real-time, and you have a movie that felt like it failed in more avenues than it succeeded in. With that said, this wasn’t a bad movie, and it got much better the further you got into it.
