Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Elba and Larter are actually pretty good. Beyonce, through, strikes one note throughout.
Don't think that exploiting female paranoia and the promise of Knowles throwing punches is enough to make up for your unabashed B-movie hitting the skids at the halfway point.
As far as the crazy-stalker-chick genre goes, Obsessed isn't horrible. It's just intensely simple-minded.
Spends much time spinning its wheels and making auds practically beg for an explanation to all the madness and obsession.
