Has anyone seen this movie?

In my opinion, I thought it was pretty good. It wasn't far off from what Die Hard 4 (Live Free, Die Hard) was about.

I found some similarities between this movie and Armageddon.
1. Billy Bob Thorton - instead of Head of NASA, is Head of a FBI Unit
2. Soundtrack - eventhough Hans Zimmer didn't do the Eagle Eye Soundtrack, they both sounded very similar in style

Similarities between Eagle Eye and Die Hard 4:
1. Wasn't over-hyped prior to release.
2. Didn't try to be anything that it wasn't, and what it was was AWESOME! It was an a$$-kicking good movie.

Similarities or connections between Die Hard 4, Eagle Eye, and Armageddon:
1. Bruce Willis starred in Die Hard 4 and Armageddon, Armageddon was similar to Eagle Eye because of the soundtrack and agency stuff (NASA-FBI).
2. Billy Bob Thorton was in Armageddon as Head of Houston Communications, he was head of the FBI in Eagle Eye.

So I like this movie a lot. Anything that has a connection of sorts to Armageddon and Die Hard sounds pretty good to me.

By itself though, the movie is just great! Worth a watch.
