Prémonitions

Made for dvd movies. Or sy-fi channel disaster movies are many and they always follow the same thing. A father or mother trying to save their family that are usually a weather presenter or something along that route. Sprinkle on some bad cgi and you have the movie. This one ill give it credit as it is different. In this film jack, played by Casper van dion is a cop that starts having premonitions of things that will happen, disasters he must stop before it is too late. This is a movie that couldve been better is it was a theticle or small studio release. But ill say this. Casper van dion was alright. His a pretty good actor when given the right role. The cgi was bad but the plot was still interesting enough.to keep me watching.

I do not know where to start. Firstly the acting was really wooden n cheesy n pretty much dire.

The special effects were totally abysmal n the shaky cameras on rare action scenes were so off putting.

The plot was n has been done so many times n far more superior than this movie.

There was no suspense even tho there was a great effort to try n produce some. There were no tense moments at all.

The ending was hugely predictable.

I'm afraid I cannot recommend this movie n I gave 3 stars for effort.

a nuclear terrorist plot behind a back-from-the-dead-visions wrapper; terrible acting with one of those casts consisting of no one you have ever seen before other than the top 2 or 3 folks in the billing; no reality to the actions of the actors in the plot, with the FBI not bothering to follow up on any clues or taking seriously any information given them; the wife limited to a long series of "Oh, Jack.." lines; the kid existing for the sole purpose of being put in danger at just the right moment;a Grade C made-for-2am effort; unlike some bad movies, you realize from the very beginning that this will never start to become interesting; you have to wonder why they bothered with this.

Well, the 2005 movie "Premonition" from writer Will Stewart and director Jonas Quastel is built upon a concept that is over-used in Hollywood movie history, and sadly then "Premonition" didn't really manage to cash in on the concept in a very fulfilling or entertaining manner.

The storyline told in "Premonition", as written by Will Stewart was just too mundane, too stereotypical and predictable. And that left nothing up for the audience to get thrilled about. Sure, the movie was adequately enough paced, but the lack of ups and down, or curves for that matter, along the ride made for a rather monotonous movie experience.

The characters in the movie were adequate, albeit somewhat generic, thanks to the writing. And again, the character concepts were things that had been seen before, so there was nothing grand to be experienced here. And that sort of put a dampening restriction upon the cast of actors and actresses.

The special effects in "Premonition", however, were bad. They were laughably bad, and they looked like something that was discarded from a 1990s computer game. It was just atrocious to look at, and such bad special effects just hinders a movie in its progress.

Sure, "Premonition" was watchable, but it was hardly a memorable experience, and ultimately it was a less than mediocre movie as a whole. My rating of director Jonas Quastel's 2005 movie lands on a four out of ten stars.

Tough ex-GI cop Jack Barnes (Casper van Dien) survives a momentarily fatal accident that miraculously endows him with the eerie power of second sight! Det. Barnes disorientatingly experiences distressingly violent visions, and becomes strongly compelled to try and alter the dark fates of those victims he 'sees' in his frenzied premonitions. This conspicuously Dead Zone'd DTV action/thriller with studly Psi-cop Casper Van Dien is a mostly enjoyable jaunt into the supernatural. Switch off your noggin, switch on the kettle and revel in the chiselled, immaculately bestubbled, enormously attractive hero's earnest attempts to save the city from impending disaster!!!! Granted, we've seen it all before, but that only proves we're all just a little psychic, man!!!!!! Not the most invigorating text, but the director credibly keeps things peppy, and buff B-Movie Adonis Casper is one of the more affable action dudes! The CGI effects are not always convincing, but the film's big bad baddie shoes are capably filled by energetic character actor David Palffy.
