Perfect for anyone 10 and up who enjoys movies that test your mind
I love this movie and so do my step kids and my daughter. They are not sheltered so they know to turn their heads if the movie has "Dirty" scenes. I think as long as you watch a movie and feel comfortable watching it with your kids, then who cares what anyone else has to say.
I was surprised at the bad reviews that PREMONITION recieved. I didn't really know what to expect while watching, but I really enjoyed the film. The ending was the only problem, but a quick viewing of the alternate ending will fix that. The movie was thrilling, scary, but mostly, inspiring. Characters in the film make sacrifices for each other and their relationships. SPOILER! And, though a husband is poised to make a bad decision, he decides that he cares too much about his wife to be unfaithful to her. END OF SPOILER! There are strong, faith-affirming messages through the whole film, and a mother's love for her children overcomes all of the other problems in her life. Unfortunately, the makers of the film had to throw in one "f" word to make the movie PG-13. Other than that one slip of tongue, the only thing that is inappropriate about the movie is some alarming images that revolve around some bloody injuries of unknown origin. However, it should be fine for anyone 13 and over, because all is explained in the end. NOTE: However, parents of young kids should FF the previews on the DVD, some are pretty alarming.
Saw this movie yesterday with my 2 younger brothers and we all said it was a awesome movie and that Sandra Bullock did an incredible job. It had a few jumpy parts but as far as the story line goes you need to pay attention to every single scene of the movie. It's like reading a mystery book.
I found this movie quite confusing, but also good movie. There are some parts that young children should not see like the decapitation of jim head after the people drop the casket at the funeral and when the little girl runs into the glass door. I found it terribly upset when (Sanadra) tried to stop (Jullian) from dying bu he ended up dying in the end anyways.
I would have to say this is a bit of a chick flick. This is a movie that I think only teen girls and moms/ female adults would understand. However, I really enjoyed it. I thought it was pretty good. It will be really confusing if you don't pay attention but I really liked it.
Not the most entertaining movie in the world. But we enjoyed trying to guess how it would end, together. Some kids might be kind of freaked out about the thought of premonitions. It's one of those things that you can believe it happens but have no idea how. That might be disturbing for some. But we enjoyed it.
Summed up: this movie is pretty much a waste of time. I didn't gain anything from it and it didn't really interest me. There are much more worthwhile movies to spend your money on.
I have been looking for a movie that would scare me that was not a disgusting hack-and-slash movie. I picked up this movie because of the words psychological thriller on the front, which one of my favourite scary movies, the sixth sense, is classified as. Though it was a pretty good movie, it didn't scare me. I don't think this would be an issue for 13+ to see it. There are a few bad words, and some implying of sex, and some violence, but it really isn't that bad. That part when she sees the severed head, it happens so quickly that I didn't even get a glimpse of it, and I doubt anyone would see it unless they hit the pause button. She does drink wine, but not excessively, and it never shows her taking the lithium. The protagonists' husband cheats on her, but then decides that what he did was wrong. A child runs through a sliding glass window, and her face is pretty bloody, then afterwards she has scars on her face. If you have a problem with blood, you may want to hide your eyes at this point ;-).
The ending can be kind of confusing, but I won't give anything away. Overall a pretty good movie, though not very scary.
