Obsession (2019)

The majority of this movie is painfully average. The premise is as old as the farm equipment occupying the setting, and Brad Dourif as the kindly older man who takes to Mekhi Phifer’s character, Sonny, after Sonny rescues him from a robbery is the only undeniable bright spot. As a fan of Dourif’s, I have to say it’s gratifying and refreshing to see him play a warm character instead of a serial killer or wily racist, lol. He really deserves better offers — the man is a Golden Globe winner, for Pete’s sake. This page has obsession 2019, watch online, obsession 2019 free download, full movie hd.

Mekhi Phifer, who is generally a fine actor, doesn’t fare all that well here with the subpar material. There’s so little chemistry between him and Elika Portnoy — who delivers a sleepy and largely ineffectual performance as the stock “hot wife” character — that their (ample) sex scenes quickly become uncomfortable to watch. We’re supposed care about and root for them, but there’s nothing there to get invested in, which is a death knell for stories like this. The cashier who tells Larissa, “Good luck with that” gives the second-best performance in the film. That should tell you just about everything.

Well, almost everything. I will say the tiny twist 3/4 of the way through is mildly piquing, and the big twist at the very end halfway saves the film. I was genuinely taken aback and pleased, from a darkly humorous point of view, about where we ended up and why. The film is such a mixed bag, I don’t feel I can safely recommend it or not. It’s only 90 minutes, but many of those minutes are not terribly enjoyable. However, Brad Dourif and the ending make this a touch above average for me — 5.5/10. Yet I’m only rating it a 5 overall because it IS a painful slog to get through the middle to get to the worthwhile ending.

I wished I liked it more but unfortunately Obsession isn’t that big of a deal. The first half is slow and pretty boring but you keep watching it in the hope it gets better. But it’s the exact opposite that happened for the second half. The story gets ridiculous, just like they had no time enough to develop the story correctly. The crime solving scenes are just laughable, I guess we have a new Sherlock Holmes that can figure out the whole thing by watching the crime scene for one second. The acting is also below average. The only good thing about Obsession is the end that I didn’t see coming but for that I had to endure the rest of this boring movie.
