My Mom and I had seen the preview and, being the Sandra Bullock fans we are, decided to go see it. It starts out simply; she goes through her day (with a peek into the future) and loses her husband. Yet when she wakes up, he's alive. This pattern continues (with a Kate and Leopold bell leading the way) as Bullock's character pieces together the days by seeing the effect before the cause. Time runs out and the day of her husband's death arrives giving her the opportunity to use her premonition gift to fight for her beliefs. I loved the ending because it summarized the words of wisdom she had been given. Overall, if you're looking for a great thriller, a recent Sandra Bullock, or a film that presents the idea of "living life like there's no tomorrow" in a classy way, watch Premonition!

Okay, I admit the idea probably had good intentions; creating the Marvel version of The Flash has good potential but really, this is just gross. There was a bloodbath within the first 6 minutes and of course this was the family dinner movie. You meet the villain, flashback and learn his story, and then the hero is created. The hero is and interesting sort who makes the normal new superhero mistakes, but his background should prep him some. There were some interesting parts in finding a secret bad guy, but otherwise it was just a bunch of red paint. My brother and I are Stan Lee fans, but this movie definitely was no tribute to his amazing work. We made fun of it whenever we weren't covering our eyes from the gross parts. Unless you like gruesome movies or are looking for an easy diet plan, don't waste your time- just rent Spider-man and enjoy your evening.
