Last night, Obsessed had its world premier at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. This movie headlines Beyonce, Idris Elba, and Ali Larter. This is the first film for Beyonce where she doesn't play a singer.
The movie was given one star. Here's what The Daily News says about it:
The one star given to "Obsessed" matches the one reason anyone would see it: Beyonce Knowles, whose only scene of any substance — scolding her husband during a kitchen confrontation — comes halfway into the movie.
Unfortunately, the whole movie seems constructed just to get the singer/actress into a knock-down catfight, shoehorning one of show business's sexiest entertainers into a scorned-woman role.
And even then, the pay-off feels cheap.
The result is more like "Delayed Frustration" than "Fatal Attraction." Knowles actually gets second billing after Idris Elba as Derek, a driven husband, father and VP of a Los Angeles financial firm.
