Sandra Bullock plays Linda Hanson in Premonition, a housewife whose week stops making chronological sense after she learns her husband died in a car accident, then wakes up the next day to find him alive. Mennan Yapo directed this 2007 thriller, which tries to build suspense from Linda's confusion about which days are real and whether she can prevent her husband's death. The premise has potential, but the execution is muddled, and the film received poor reviews despite Bullock's presence. She plays Linda as someone barely holding herself together, jumping between grief and relief as the timeline keeps shifting. Julian McMahon plays the husband, and the film eventually reveals their marriage was already falling apart before any of this started. Bullock can do this kind of material in her sleep, which may be part of the problem: the performance is competent but never quite finds something unexpected in the role. Her watch has not been identified.
