Movies that feel likeEagle Eye (2008)

Jerry Shaw and Rachel Holloman are two strangers whose lives are suddenly thrown into turmoil by a mysterious woman they have never met. Threatening their lives and family, the unseen caller uses everyday technology to control their actions and push them into increasing danger. As events escalate, Jerry and Rachel become the country's most-wanted fugitives and must figure out what is happening to them.

If you loved Eagle Eye, the closest films we have are Salt (2010), Unknown (2011) and Non-Stop (2014). All three share Eagle Eye's twisty and tense feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Kahaani (2012).
