SAVE YOUR MONEY TOO SLOW!
Ex-spies Claire Stenwick (Julia Roberts) and Ray Koval (Clive Owen) join competing multinational corporations to see who can get their hands on a secret product first and cash in on the profit. They have no problem double-crossing their bosses (played by Tom Wilkinson and Paul Giamatti) but will they be willing to backstab each other? Turns out a little thing called love is getting in the way. Tony Gilroy wrote and directed this crime caper.
Don't expect a pot full of boiling bunnies, because nothing so creatively crazy ever happens in "Obsessed," a "Fatal Attraction"-inspired predatory-female domestic thriller that spends much time spinning its wheels and making auds practically beg for an explanation to all the madness and obsession. Beyonce Knowles may be the big B.O. draw in this Stephen Shill-helmed psychodrama, which topped the weekend B.O. with a surprising $28.5 million opening, but she's barely a supporting player: The movie belongs to Ali Larter, who's long overdue for some kind of bigscreen breakout.
