Premonition

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Overdosing on flashbacks, and more portentous than profound, the overly obtuse Premonition weakly echoes such twisty classics as Memento, The Sixth Sense, and Groundhog Day.

If only Bullock could have foreseen how bad Premonition would turn out to be, she would have spared herself (and us) a lot of agony. Go to Full Review

[T]oo bad someone didn't have a premonition of what the final cut of Premonition would be. Too bad I didn't. It would have saved me from having to give this less than stellar review. Go to Full Review

Like a lot of mediocre movies it's not about much more than the immediate emotional response it's trying to generate. The filmmakers realize this and make an effort to shoe horn some themes in ... it just makes an already muddled movie even more muddled. Go to Full Review

Thank God the local priest puts everything in perspective with a string of family-values clichés. Go to Full Review

Scott E @RT19581245 1d Ending was poor. Made no sense. No resolution. See more Georgy T @RT46731364 Aug 16 Interesting emotional unpredictable intriguing. And a lot of Sandra Bullock and Julian McMahon. See more Jonathan L @SureJon Jul 16 Idk what I just saw, but I liked it anyway. See more David W @RT43756585 Jun 19 Codswallop. I turned this rubbish off halfway through. The premise of the plot was inviting but the execution was reminiscent of a 1050s black and white B horror movie. See more Dean S. @DeanDFW Dec 29 I don’t have to have a premonition to tell you to AVOID this movie. Horrible. Disappointed in Bullock’s acting too. See more todd R. @lsju24 Dec 22 Looks like I’m the only person that enjoyed this as a thought provoking thriller See more Read all reviews
