I have to admit, I waited for this movie ”Obsessed” to come out on dvd. Wasn’t a movie I wanted to take my favorite little leaguer to see, even though I tell him often that women are the devil. Don’t send me letters ladies - you know what I mean. Guys - remember Samson in the Bible - sometimes get blind sided (literally) by an enchanting temptress. The play on word in the movie actually. This temptress was the office temp. Funny. Good writing. When I decided to download it from itunes and I had a hard time due to my very obsolete computer system and had to reboot it before I could get the download, I thought maybe for a sec that perhaps I didn’t need to see it. I saw it, and it is a good movie. A bit week at the top of the third or the bottom of the second - and very cliche, but good.
My question to you is -- is it ever okay for a married person (man or woman) to flirt in any kind of way, innocently or not with someone of the opposite sex (presuming you’re straight)?
My brother thinks this guy in the movie did nothing wrong. My mother thinks otherwise. After viewing I think the guy is typical making it cliche. With his head fogged by the temptress's tears. Oh cry my a river. Once i was told that i made some woman (I use the term loosely) cry, and frankly all I could do was say boo hoo hoo. I don’t play that. Time is of the essence and life is too short to waste it on anyone who doesn’t make you/me a priority but rather an option. So I will speak my mind. And I don’t believe it’s okay for a committed or married couple to percolate elsewhere as long as they’re drinking at home. That’s bull. I say, if you don’t start something there won’t be nothing. Ignore the wiles of the evil one who comes like a thief in the night to steal, kill, and destroy.
Off my soap box now. I thought Beyonce Knowles did a wonderful job, not only the ass-kicking scenes but all round. She is growing in this craft. Kudos. Idris Elba was also very good. And the temptress, I feel sorry for her, because she played that role so convincingly that she is probably sneered at alot from the public who have a hard time separating a movie character and your true character.
I recommend the movie highly, you may learn something.

Hey Sis,
I saw the movie and thought that it was a good movie. The husband should have never gave in to the sob story. He set his self up for the draaama. OMG, If the shoe was on the other foot, no man could ever understand his woman being sentimental to a man in the office and ending up in the same hotel room.
I LOVE YOU,
Hugs,
