Premonition (I) (2007)
1/10
Don't even rent it-it's just that bad.
17 March 2007
Slow, tedious, boring. That pretty much sums it up. I saw a lot of people leaving early and I stayed because I just wanted to see how it ended. Now I wish I had my $9.00 back.

It jumped around days in a particular order then dropped it towards the end, I guess to make it longer. BTW, Sandra Bullock is a horrible screamer. There's one point, seemingly very dramatic but then she's surprised and screaming and screaming but it sounds really bad and fake and instead of being moved by her trauma, everyone in the theater started laughing. Then, the token love scene because she and Julian McMahon were both outside in a storm and they got wet. So, cue the love scene. Except she took one of his shoes off, set his stinky sock foot in her lap and all I could think was, "I bet he needs some Odor Eaters." It seemed like it was trying to do a 6th Sense twist but it failed miserably. Even thinking about it later, it just didn't work. I'm not sure why anyone would give it a rating higher than a 2 but they must have really liked their nap.

Bewitched (2005)
1/10
What the heck happened to the story? Terrible Editing Abounds!
11 July 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I don't know what happened, and judging by this movie, the people that made it don't know what they're doing. It was going along fine, then suddenly, the characters are referring to an incident that was possibly edited out of the movie, random Uncle Arthur pops in without explanation, drops out as suddenly and we have no idea why he's there or if he was a product of a spell or something.

They also dropped a lot of character development - SPOILER ALERT - faux Samantha has a real Aunt Clara. OK, will that be worked into the TV show or is it just supposed to be a nice gimmick for the movie to touch on showing us why she should be the new TV Samantha. Why is Endora (S. Maclaine) an actual witch but we don't know what that has to do with anything and if she and faux Samantha's dad will be together or if he finds out she's a real witch. This movie made no sense and was put together very badly.

They tried to work in every element of the old show, but it's in a way that makes no sense and would have been better if they just dropped it.

I can't even recommend this for rental or loan from the library and I loved the old show. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!
