OK, enough is enough, I decided to watch this movie, even with its low rating, because someone said it was still worth the rental, I mean come on! the movie has a rating below avg, and if I gave it a shot was because of HG, but it's a total fail, the movie its based on a lame obsession and stupid drama, we stay there for an hour waiting for something to happened and we get nothing, nothing at all, just more lame drama and don't get me wrong the acting and everything except the story its fine, very disappointing. Just watch something else guys. Oh! and this isn't even a "R" movie, its more like "PG-13" yeah! because teenagers are the only ones who might be interested in lame drama.

This is a movie for people who like cinematography and of course Heather Graham. Personally I really enjoy movies with beautiful woman in them. Beauty in the cinema is a combination of the natural beauty of the actress and the vision of that beauty brought forth by the director and director of photography(DP). You just need to watch the opening credits to know that the DP is a brilliant artist. Then to watch the whole movie with all its fabulous colors is a real joy. Heather Graham is well...Heather Graham. If you like her, then this is a wonderful vehicle for her talents. I happen to think she is a great actress as well as a great screen beauty.The plot is quite real. If you want exploding cars and flying people this is not your movie. If you treasure beauty, this is definitely a movie to watch.

Going by the name I initially thought that 'Compulsion' was a Roman Polanski film. However it turns out to be a remake of a mid 90s Korean movie titled '302'. While viewing this one would not become immediately aware of this. The theme isn't exactly Korean cinema type. As a matter of fact the subject matter is more akin to Hitchcock or European films. However the plot will be familiar to those who have seen 'Diabolique'. The theme is very similar. The story focuses on two characters who seem to be hiding their real intentions from one another. The film very cleverly mixes humour in regular intervals with the serious tone. There is also a mystery element involved. Unfortunately not much unravels in terms of plot to assist the viewer to discover the character motives.Graham plays a woman who enjoys cooking. Ann Moss is a struggling writer who has happened to move in to the apartment opposite. Graham constantly insists her to try her new dishes, but Moss always seems to refuse. Her presence also seems to bother her. Meanwhile there is a detective played by Joe Mantegna who is questioning Graham regarding Moss's disappearance. This is shown in flashback mode. Both Moss and Graham become close to each other and share one another's sorrows. The acquaint romantically and at the end the truth to Moss's disappearance is revealed. For a short film this does have a slow pace. Initial time is spent showing the interactions between Heather Graham and Carrie Ann Moss. In terms of plot there isn't much to offer. Slow development of characters take up much time in the early stage of the film. Graham has the entire centre of attention here as she flaunts her beauty and charm in almost every reel. She makes the movie watch able. The twist in the climax doesn't surprise as it is not explained why Graham had a murderous streak. There never were any clues throughout the film that would arise doubt. Identifying her a killer was a little beyond believability. However when this is revealed in a certain scene, it was stylishly done. Overall this film has a very noir atmosphere. Some may like it, some may won't.

This movie will probably stay with me for a while. Heather Grahm was beautiful in the movie and really made me feel for her characters. I was dreading that the movie was going to turn into a predictable girl gone crazy movie because I really like the characters of Amy. Luckily this film had more depth. One of the most disturbing things about the film is the cards that Amy is dealt in her life. I may be a bit biased because I'm a huge foodie like the characters so I really enjoyed that aspect of it as well.. The one thing I will say is this movie may not be for everyone. Hardcore horror fans may not appreciate the slow paced drama but at the same time drama lovers may not appreciate the macabre aspect of the film. I won't say much more but if you like simple yet disturbing movies is recommend this one
