Ultime étreinte

Young thing falls for older man who's just having fun. She's in it for keeps, and will not let go when he's done with her ... This movie hit home for me in many ways as I have suffered from attachment disorder for many years. I felt everything she did, and now that I've done the majority of emotional healing (mainly by using this movie), I can only watch it for the cringe factor. Not to say it isn't very well acted because it certainly is believable (tho' Shannen seems to have it down TOO pat, if you know what I mean).. I'd recommend it for its pure psychological value. It's not on a par with 'Fatal Attraction' if you want suspense and mood, but the movie is not bad.

This film has only one redeeming feature. It contains some extremely trite and hilariously cheesy montage footage of People Doing Things.

Apart from that, don't watch it. Do something, anything, else. Really, almost anything. Even cleaning your toenails. Twice.

You will save yourself a small part of your life.

OK, I love the "psycho Chick" genre of movie....."Fatal Attraction", "The Crush"....etc, etc....This is definitely not one of those movies....It is however all you'd expect from a Shannon Doherty movie-of-the-week....The good news is that you can watch this one without thinking too much....Perfect way to end a long, hard day....It has really bad, cheesy dialog, and a plot you can figure out within the first 5 minutes of watching....And come on, it's Shannon Doherty doing what she does best....It's not "Fatal Attraction" and she isn't Glenn Close, but I watch this one every single time it's on....Is my IQ a little lower after watching it, probably.....But sometimes TV is supposed to be simple.

Well if you are a Shannon fan I can highly recommend "Obsessed" co-starring William Devane with a new set of choppers. Plot goes something like A man in his 50s becomes locked in the grip of a dangerous lover young enough to be his daughter. She is f-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c and she gets to wear really great pumps and natty suits with big shoulder pads. Its a fave of mine - so good in fact I have it saved to the set top box so I can watch it if I can't sleep. And the scene where she confronts him at the country club is so realistic your skin actually crawls with embarrassment and fear (fear because she is holding on to her Spalding mini learner racquet). Anyway - if it's another rainy day get it as well as well as the chance to see the enigmatic Shannon

Actually, for television, I found it to be a real "time passer". I mean, I could have cleaned my toilet or my toenails, but I was so amused at the fact that someone thought to pair Ms. Doherty with the renown Mr. Devane, that I found myself unusually drawn in. I know it wasn't a good movie, but it wasn't painful. If it's raining outside and you've got the flu and you can't find the remote and you're too weak to walk over to the television to turn the channel, I'd suggest this movie. As for me, I have to be honest. I've always thought William Devane was rather sexy so I probably would watch it again if it wasn't raining, I didn't have the flu and I could find the remote, but on a serious note, I didn't care for Doherty in the role, although she wasn't half bad. In short, it's bearable and slightly, yes, slightly entertaining.
