[Movie] Movie Review: Obsession.

Be careful what you wish for. Yeah, I had to say that first because that was one of the most important things I learned from this movie. You know, the movie is a very interesting one. It didn't look horror-like at first until it started getting to the middle and then towards the end. Well, it's not your regular kind of horror movie, though. But then, I very well enjoyed it.

The movie is titled Obsession, and it is about four friends, Bear, Nikki, Sarah, and Ian. All four of them were very good friends and even working at the same place. They hang out together, play, joke, have fun, and all of that. Now, it happens that Nikki and Bear have been childhood friends, and even more than that, Bear actually had feelings for Nikki, but he was scared to tell her, you know. He felt she might not feel the same for him.

He went to a store one day to get something for Nikki when he found an object called the "one-wish willow." It felt funny at first, but he later bought it and just decided to try his luck. So, he used it the way it was to be used and wished that Nikki would love him more than anyone else in the world. Immediately, I mean, immediately everything began to go wrong. He just dropped Nikki off at her house when he made that wish, and instantly the stuff worked. Nikki came back out and started acting weird, even insisting on following him home that night.

It got even more interesting from there. I want to understand how Best feels towards her, though. He's just a shy guy; you know he couldn't say how he felt to her. But he did wrong by getting that one wish from Willow and using it on Nikki. Yeah, he didn't really realize how weighty his wish was; he never knew it would turn out that way.

Ad talking about Nikki, she really, really changed. Like, she became too attached to Bear. She wants to know everything about him and wants to be around him always; she wants to watch him sleep, she wants everything... And you know how creepy that is. Well, I would love to add that she made the movie more interesting. She knows exactly when to show up; she knows exactly when to scream to make your heart skip a beat. She knows when to be calm and how to mix it all. A great actor, I must confess. Even the way she walks at times or the look in her eyes at times makes me scared of her.

There are times you will even see the real Nikki trying to act out of her likeness. It was obvious this is not real. Even Bear knew what he had done and wished for something beyond his control. Ian and Sarah too weren't left out. They knew something was wrong with their friends but didn't know what it was exactly. I might as well add that Sarah actually liked Bear, yeah. She did; it's just that Best had eyes on Nikki. But I love the movie. I would rate it at a solid 80 or above.

I also love the message it passes. Like I said at the beginning, be careful what you wish for. It shows how that we can't force someone to love you all because you desperately want it. The way it's turned out shows clearly that forcing someone to love you will never turn out well. Bear learned, and he learned it the hard way.

This movie is definitely worth watching; at least you as well need to know if they all survived or not, and you need to know if Nikki was ever set free or not, and you as well need to know the end of all four friends. A funny, dark, disturbing, strange, and obsessive movie, I must say.
