I recently saw Beyonce Knowles's new movie "Obsessed", co-starring Ali Larter. Don't get me wrong, I am a huge Beyonce fan - the hugest - but this movie was not all that. I felt like I had seen it (or something like it) before. Plus, it was super-predictable. I hate when I can tell what's going to happen next. It takes the fun out of watching a movie, especially a thriller. Thrillers are supposed to have you on the edge of your seat wanting more and wondering what's going to happen next. This movie didn't do that!
On a brighter note, Beyonce's performance in the movie was good. Her acting skills have improved tremendously since her role in "Cadillac Records" and "Austin Powers: Goldmember." In her older movies I was like "She needs to stick to singing." But when I saw this one I was like "Okay, maybe she can do the acting thing." Not all singers/rappers can act, but she did well.
Ali Larter's performance was amazing!!! Her character was this crazy woman and there were scenes where the camera would zoom in on her and she had like a crazy look in her eyes. She was so believable. WOW. Beyonce's performance pales in comparison to Ali's. Even though the actors did well, the plot of the movie sucked.
