What to Know

Critics Consensus

Laughably overheated and featuring loads of cheesy dialogue, Fascination is the virtual definition of so-band-it's-good.

At its delirious worst, it's as pungent a Parisian cheese shop, offering a cornucopia of laughable scenes. Go to Full Review
Eddie Cockrell Variety 05/17/2006
The only magnetism generated by ersatz black-widow Fascination is that perilous urge to slow down and peek at the roadside wreck. Go to Full Review

Craig H Aug 17 I have watched 10s of thousands of movies in my life. This is the worst movie I have ever seen. See more Stormy B Mar 20 Horrible movie. Disgusting characters. No one can act. Overloaded with gratuitous sex. Absolute waste of time. See more 04/28/2012 Cheesy lines, contrived acting - overall joke of a film. Felt like it was a B grade film straight out of the 80s. Was surprised to discover it was made in 2004! They can't still be making such films in this decade and expect it to do well! Total waste See more 04/08/2012 Stupidest movie I have seen in a LONG time!!! If I heard that dipsh*t pour her heart out about the "true story" one more time, I was going to puke. And did they over do the sex scenes just a bit?? There is so much wrong with this movie, but I have already spent too much of my life concerning myself with it. See more 09/10/2011 so bad. a waste of those minutes of my life See more roger g 06/20/2011 Not able to stay fascinated long enough to endure the script, the acting and the purpose of this film.
