    Isn't half as dramatic as what probably went down after she (Beyoncé Knowles) kicked LaTavia and LaToya out of Destiny's Child.

    Obsessed has little plausibility, but at moments it's an entertaining bad movie, and the performers are vivid.

    The singer-actress' saucy, glamorously wry performance makes up for some of the film's inherent predictability.

    Larter just doesn't have the same bite as the bunny-killing stalkers of years gone by.

    The movie is filled with cliches all over the place but what keeps Obsessed together is the tense thrill ride from beginning to end. A predictable but very entertaining movie.… Expand

    It kills me to say that this movie wasn't all that bad. It was pretty damn tense. It might have been unintentionally funny at times, but it was still creepy. The main girl was a total psycho.… Expand

    THIS movie had sooooooooo much potential, but i hate to say it but Beyonce really ruined this movie for me. Singers becoming actors just doesn't work, i mean look at Mariah Carey and Chris Brown. They really shoulda casted Taraji .P. Henson for Beyonce's role. She woulda gave that character some life. Idris and Ali Larter were good and their roles but they shoulda expanded more on why she was OBSSESSED with him to begin with.… Expand
