Review of Premonition (2007) by Filipeneto — 28 Jun 2018

This movie is a story that may seem a bit difficult to understand. The plot is based on an abnormal time phenomenon in which Linda Hanson (the main character, played by Sandra Bullock) lives a week with the days out of order (Monday, then Thursday, then Tuesday, got the idea ?).

If this sounds crazy, believe me, the character will seem even more lost than we are. To make matters worse, this week her husband's death happens and she spends her days trying to avoid it. I will not lie: the film seems confusing but its not so much because we will understand everything as the action takes place, but it never explains the reason and the means by time got so distorted, and that makes things a bit pointless.

Sandra Bullock is very good and did what we expecting from her, but she carries the film on her own because the rest of the cast is pretty poor and gives her little support. So, what we have in the end is a film that oscillates between the supernatural and the sci-fi, with an unclear theme, a good love story and some creative drama, brightened by a single good and competent actress.
