The plot takes you up high, the skill was on the ground floor

Rating: 3/10 (7 April 2019)

This rather plodding thriller suffers from the horrific miscasting of James Stewart. His quacking voice is way to warm and comical for this role though he does his best.
An inauspicious amount of talk about "possession" leads to the core of this story: demanding you to just believe that the male and female lead totally fall for each other. If either had a real personality between them it might have been interesting.
There's actually a bit of intrigue but a shameless scene of self spoilering just emasculated the whole picture.
The rest is a predictable and laboured story of unexplicable obsession.
Vertigo actually has very little to do with it; it's like a metaphor or something.
An embarrassingly fake dream sequence and attempts at comic asides only increase that.
