Review of Premonition (2006) by Laurence C — 18 Nov 2009

The ultimate suburban housewife nightmare! Gosh! Laundry re-appearing into the basket! Gross dead animals in the backyard! Dreamy husband having an affair with his blonde secretary bombshell!

Really... for anybody else who's seen more than ten to fifteen thrillers in his or her lifetime, this flavorless paranormal mystery is just barely serviceable-- and all that tedious buildup leads to the outcome we had already figured out during the first third. Bullock is credible alright, yet I felt no reason to care for her character. Her scrambled calendar chronicles are barely any fun to sit through.

So what are we left with? Dust. A film essentially made of frickin' dust. Trust me, friends : wind will blow very, very soon on Premonition.

But what an amazing one-sheet!
