Product Description

In Premonition, Linda Hanson (Sandra Bullock) is living in the Twilight Zone as she experiences recurring dreams of her husband's car crash, mediated by days in which the tragedy hasn't yet happened. By the time Linda does see her husband Jim's (Julian McMahon) death, one feels relieved instead of grievous. Though Premonition mines fascinating material, investigating the ways women in particular have uncanny psychic abilities to predict impending family dangers, Linda's premonitions are so convoluted, even to her, that it is difficult to determine their reality. Unrealistic scenes involving a sadistic psychiatrist and an unwarranted lithium prescription would lead one to question Linda's sanity, but instead add falseness to the story. Irritating sequences in which Linda confides in a priest at the local church, who tells her that faith will heal all, seem like Christian propaganda that completely eradicates any real witchcraft in the story. For a truly scary film about clairvoyance, see Dario Argento's Phenomena. Premonition is a bogus take on psychic prediction, as tearjerking as Ghost was during Patrick Swayze's heyday. --Trinie Dalton

A little confusing September 27, 2008
I found this movie a little confusing. How they jumped back and forth with the premonitions confused me. Most of the movie I was wondering is the guy dead or alive. It was just how they put the movie together.
 Not very convincing September 19, 2008
Thirty minutes into the movie, I kept thinking to myself "Have I seen this movie before?" Maybe it was a "Premonition" that this movie was going to be as bad as it already was.....at the time. Alright, who put that bottle of Lithium on my nightstand? Even the worse "Twilight Zone" episode was better than this movie.
 Box Office Poison August 31, 2008
I guess I'm not a Sandra Bullock fan, I don't like one movie she's in, and I don't like Julian McMahon (who is he?) either. They both gave wooden portrayals of their characters, leaving you feeling empty inside. Julian McMahon came across as a primadonna, all the while I was thinking "honey you're not that cute, get over yourself". The plot was all too confusing and had me lost most of the time, and at certain points I stopped caring about whatever happened. I couldn't wait for it to end, this movie was painful to watch.
 WOW! Best movie, ever. August 8, 2008
This movie is just breathtaking. I thought no movie could rival Speed 2: Cruise Control, 28 Days or Forces of Nature, three of the best movies ever made, but this one really does it!!
Great job Sandra Bullock! You are trully gifted and choose really great scripts!
PS: i forgot! It is even better than Jaws IV: The Revenge!
Dreadful. July 25, 2008

This movie is so bad I don't know where to begin. I kept thinking Groundhog Day but that was intentionally funny.
Let's start with the cast. Sandra Bullock is one of the least interesting actresses on the screen (on a par with Nicole Kidman) and I cannot recall one smile during the movie. Her husband was also a zombie; well, less zombielike than Bullock. No passion between them that I could see. I could see why he would want to cheat; she showed as much passion as a cold fish.
I got dizzy with was he dead; wasn't he dead but after ten minutes I didn't care at all. The ending was no big surprise.
But after reading one posting, I might decide to check out the book.
