Beyoncé Knowles’ new movie opens with what might seem as a remake of Michael Douglas’ “Fatal Attraction,” but think of this one as the good version, without the cheating part.
Derek Charles (Idris Elba) works as an asset manager in a major corporation who’s just received a big promotion at work. The story begins with Derek and his lovely wife, Sharon (Beyoncé), buying a new home for their growing family.
Meanwhile at work the new temp girl, Lisa (Ali Larter) has taken a liking to Derek. After having some boy issues that leaves Derek saying the wrong things when comforting her, Lisa takes things into her own hands believing Derek is in love with her.
Lisa’s world is twisted with the idea that she and Derek are having an affair. In all reality, she begins to stalk Derek: where he likes to eat, favorite music, corporate retreats…anything to be near him.
When Derek fails to take care of the “problem,” Sharon decides to confront Lisa. The obsession turns into a major catfight; may the best woman win!
This movie will continue to leave you on edge the minute you meet Lisa. After each attempt she tries, it makes you think, “When will this b**** stop?” You either want Derek to hit her, or Sharon to find out so she’ll take care of business. Either way, the suspense makes this movie well worth the ticket cost.
