"Premonition" Editorial Review 

by Trinie Dalton (Amazon.com)


Premonition
(Widescreen Edition)

In Premonition, Linda Hanson (Sandra Bullock) is living in the Twilight Zone as she experiences recurring dreams of her husband's car crash, mediated by days in which the tragedy hasn't yet happened. By the time Linda does see her husband Jim's (Julian McMahon) death, one feels relieved instead of grievous.

Though Premonition mines fascinating material, investigating the ways women in particular have uncanny psychic abilities to predict impending family dangers, Linda's premonitions are so convoluted, even to her, that it is difficult to determine their reality.

Unrealistic scenes involving a sadistic psychiatrist and an unwarranted lithium prescription would lead one to question Linda's sanity, but instead add falseness to the story. Irritating sequences in which Linda confides in a priest at the local church, who tells her that faith will heal all, seem like Christian propaganda that completely eradicates any real witchcraft in the story.

For a truly scary film about clairvoyance, see Dario Argento's Phenomena. Premonition is a bogus take on psychic prediction, as tearjerking as Ghost was during Patrick Swayze's heyday.

    so frustrated!I can't sleep I'm so annoyed What a waste of time!...Why couldnt it end with her saving hubby? What then,was the point of the premonition? Why was he going to fix his Will? Did he think the affair was going to cause death? She did cause the accident after all..SMART!

    wife/mother is "dried up",as is marriage,etc. She is passive,yet her Big dreams are warning of the death that her actions could prevent. The key is her gaining consiousness of what she must fight for (Priest ). Her charachter becomes one of firmness(tell them you love!) clarity and action.
