Obsessed

Elba grimaces, Larter is seductive, and Beyonce says, 'You better do something about this woman, or I will.' That better be enough because that's all this one's got to offer.

A dim reworking of Fatal Attraction, directed with anonymous efficiency.

It's execrable; a fist-chewing embarrassment that has no right to a theatrical release.

Idris Elba, so good in The Wire, looks a long way from Baltimore in this overcooked Fatal Attraction-style yarn about a cocksure executive laid low by the office temp.

It could be the least erotic thriller ever made, unless die-you-bitch catfights through broken attic floorboards constitute some sort of kinky subgenre.

The story is straightforward and well-told, if only mildly engaging

…for all its slickness, the view of women expressed here is hardly positive or progressive…

Directed by Steve Shill, "Obsessed" skates over a lot of familiar territory - in a painfully slow-paced manner.

Fans of the Final Destination flicks should enjoy seeing how Larter's horror roots are revisited in the over-the-top climax of this trashy exercise in glossy B-movie-making.
