Critic Reviews

  • Ben Lyons, At the Movies

    A silly, contrived film.

  • Ben Mankiewicz, At the Movies

  • Dan Zak, Washington Post

    As far as the crazy-stalker-chick genre goes, Obsessed isn't horrible. It's just intensely simple-minded.

  • John Anderson, Variety

    Spends much time spinning its wheels and making auds practically beg for an explanation to all the madness and obsession.

  • Greg Quill, Toronto Star

    If the producers had done their work properly on Obsessed, I would not now be wishing I could reclaim the two hours I wasted on this tepid, sexless, thrill-free melodrama.
