Summary: A jumbled, confusing mess of a movie
Comment: (For a much more interesting flick with a young Daniel Craig you should try Love & Rage with Greta Scacci).
If you're a serious Daniel Craig fan you might buy it to see him, but there is no other reason I'd recommend this one. He's only on the screen for about 1/3 of the entire movie. This movie is mostly about the female lead, Miriam, and her ability to string along two otherwise intelligent men for no reason that I can really see. When both men realize she is romantically "double-dipping" and they confront her, she simply shrugs and says, "I love you. And I love you. And seeing you both made you both happy." This is delivered with so little emotion or charm that I would have thought both men would have walked out on her.
Also, don't assume the "Obsession" of the title is a romantic one...the "obsession" in the title refers to Daniel Craig's character's search for the identity of a man in an old photograph...a man who may very well be his biological grandfather.
If you're a Daniel Craig fan & you're curious, then $6.99 is a pretty cheap buy. But don't bother with this one for a plot.

Summary: For Daniel Craig Fans Only
Comment: Take good looking actors, add an incoherent script, throw in a handful of picturesque Euro locations and you have "Obsession". This film is recommended only for those who wish to have a complete Daniel Craig collection, albeit a bizarre addition to the library.
This film's worst offense is that it is boring, deadly dull despite a capable cast. The story is riddled with jaw dropping inconsistencies and the kind of stupidity one associates with Lifetime movies. For instance, Daniel Craig's character is supposedly from Zimbabwe, yet his accent is from Kansas not Rhodesia. WTF? Even DiCaprio was able to carry off a credible Rhodie accent in Blood Diamond.
If you simply must own every movie that Daniel Craig ever made then this will be $6.99 well spent. Otherwise, give this film a wide berth and in the unlikely event that you are invited over to a friend's house to watch this insult to your intelligence then you would be well advised to fabricate any excuse, however farfetched, to avoid wasting 110 minutes of your life.
