Canadian-lensed remake of what I assume was originally an Asian thriller, about a woman whose loving husband and brutish brother in law end up in comas after a car accident. The husband remains in a coma, while the brother in law eventually comes to, claiming to be his brother and husband of the distraught woman. He seems to know many intimate details about her married life so that she eventually accepts him as her husband, with his soul transferred (the same plot was used on "Ghost Whisperer"). From there, it's all downhill. Is this a supernatural thriller? The answer is no, based on the cut and dried ending. It's certainly suspenseful part of the way, but it is too easy to guess the ending based on various clues thrown at us during the story This is Gellar's film all the way, with able support from Lee Pace as the brother in law. It's perfect for a quiet Saturday night. Just don't expect too much.

I expected this movie to be a lot better than it actually was and I think that's probably due to the fact that Sarah Michelle Gellar was in it and I love pretty much everything that she is in, but this movie was just terrible. It was boring and there really wasn't that much to the plot and the characters all kind of bored me and didn't seem to have much depth to them at all. I also don't think much really happened and it just seemed really, really unrealistic to me most of the time. The only reason I've given the movie a 3 out of 10 is due to the fact that Sarah Michelle Gellar was in it and I think that's the only reason I actually even bothered to finish the movie.

It's not even a thriller! This is just a suspense/drama film. The concept is better than the execution. Pace is the best thing about the film, but even he struggles with a role that isn't written with any real depth. How is he in love with the protagonist if he just got out of jail? Because she took his case? SMG's character is poorly developed and the whole relationship triangle seems poorly developed, with confusing time-lines to boot. However, I do agree with the reviewer above who says that the US DVD version's alternate ending works better. It is more intriguing in terms of what both characters appear to know about themselves and each other. How long will Roman be able to hold it together with his change of mindset? Why does SMG's character decide to take such risks? Did she learn to love him for real, or is she just mourning her husband? Anyway, the alternate ending was more satisfying by far than the hackneyed ending of the actual release, which really makes no sense, and appears slapped together. The thought that Ryan's neurologist is evidently also an obstetrician, as suggested in one of the closing scenes, is laughable, for instance. Only die-hard SMG and Pace fans. I can't remember the time when I've seen a movie with such a markedly different alternate ending where where the alternate was so much better than the released film. will find much to savor here.

Sorry, Sarah, but, since your 'Buffy days,' your film career has hardly been glittering. What we have here is a short - and pretty empty - horror/thriller. If you believe the marketing on the poster, the people who made it have something to do with both The Grudge and The Ring. I can assure you... it's not even nearly as good as either of them. In my opinion, it has two major problems: the first is that it's rushed. It's only eighty minutes long and everything has to happen really quickly to fit it all in. Buffy is now married to 'nice brother,' but 'nasty brother' is generally hanging around with them. Then, one fateful day, nice brother and nasty brother accidentally crash their cars into each other (yeah, seriously), leaving them both fighting for life side by side in their hospital beds. Then, nasty brother wakes up, only he claims to be nice brother. And now we have our film. Only we don't. Seeing as it's nice brother in nasty brother, he behaves very well and doesn't do anything nasty. So... who's really in there? Nice brother, or nasty brother? Um, do we care? He's nice, so there's absolutely no real sense of danger or dramatic tension (my second fault with the film). If you're a Buffy/Sarah fan like me, you'll probably agree that she's the best bit. She does her best, but the script is lame and she could do with either having to fight someone, or be chased by something (ala The Grudge). Sadly, Possession offers nothing you haven't seen before, only better. Stick to the Grudge or the Ring. Like I say... sorry, Sarah. http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/
