Obsessed (Shill, 2009) — Idris Elba & Beyoncé in Wire/Dexter director's debut
HD Trailer | IMDB | 24 April 2009
Is this going to be a great movie? I don't know. But it looks watchable in the kind of happens-to-be-on-TV or someone-else-wants-to-see-it kind of way.
Also, I believe this is a Fatal Attraction homage/remake.

Count me out. Not a big fan of Beyonce and I don't think she has the acting chops to pull this off.

This couldn't not possibly look any worse. All I needed to see was Beyonce's name to know it was a piece of shit.

I'm not gonna run out and see it but it doesn't look that bad. May catch it a couple years from now on TNT.

The whole thing looks awful. Also, if you were banging Beyonce, why on earth would you ever jump in the sack with Ali Larter?

Doesn't really look that great plus it's PG-13....
This should have been Rated-R....

If it was R, I would have seen it. PG-13 guarantees I probably won't touch it, even if Beyoncé is great eye candy.

Looks horrible and I'd only see this if Larter was doing full frontal...but shitty premise, a 'give away everything' trailer and PG-13 rating = suck.

Looks like i'm in the minority here. The pic above perfectly explains my interest.

A classic in the making.
This is my most anticipated of the year. Ahead of Inglorious Bastards and Public Enemies.

Yes they're calculating that this will bring in a huge audience of black women who want to see this guy get fried for crossing the third rail of black marriage. They're probably right. People who go to see this will not care if it gets crap reviews.
