A checklist of 90s thriller cliches (so tired you can almost see the cast yawning) get trotted out with a multitude of gloss yet zero creativity, in this disappointingly strait-laced Fatal Attraction knockoff. Sanaa Lathan stars as a successful businesswoman who dumps her boyfriend, played by a sleepwalking Morris Chestnut, for failing to provide her with the life she wants. In steps a boringly “perfect” replacement, a pouting Michael Ealy, who – dun dun dun – turns out to be a cat-stealing, forever-texting psycho. Rather than provide some trashy fun, this one plays it safe, choosing TV movie predictability over anything perverse. Unforgivably, he doesn’t even kill her cat.
