"Possession" received a mix of well-founded and sincere praise from critics, as well as well-documented and sincere criticism. The former, represented by "Premier" magazine, gave the film a good evaluation, on the grounds that director Neil LaBute handled the two narrative clues of the past and the present very skillfully, making the two clues blend very naturally, which is also the reason.

Into the clichés of romance films, I have been deliberately avoiding sensational elements, but this kind of treatment inevitably makes people feel that the development of the relationship between the two protagonists is too jumpy

Roland Michell: So what are we gonna do now? We gonna try to beat'em to France, or - or are we just gonna stare at each other?

Roland Michell: Mm-hmmm
Maude: I have another one for you.
Roland Michell: What's that?
Maude: What are you really doing here?
Roland Michell: Well, I uh - I needed to see your face. I just wanted to let you know that whatever happened at Whitby, which unfortunately was not much, is not because anything that you did. Not at all. I just didn't want to jump into something. I mean, I did and I do... want to. Badly. I just didn't want to mess this up. And I just want to see -
[clears throat]
Roland Michell: I want to see if there's an us in you and me. Would-Would you like that?
[Maude leans over and kisses Roland]
Roland Michell: I'll take that as a yes.

Roland Michell: Don't worry about me. I'm kind of a brush and flush kinda guy.
[seeing Maude's repulsed expression]
Roland Michell: Forget I said that.
Maude: I'll try.
