Film Review: 'Dream House'

?????
Director Jim Sheridan, best known for the Academy Award-winning In the Name of the Father (1993), returns with Dream House (2011), a mystery-thriller starring Daniel Craig (returning in the role of 007 for Bond 23, Sam Mendes' Skyfall [2012]), Rachel Weisz and Naomi Watts (next seen appearing alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Clint Eastwood's eagerly-awaited biopic J. Edgar [2011]).

Soon after buying an idyllic new house in the suburbs, a family discover that a brutal crime was committed within the premises. As the plot unfolds, it becomes apparent that the father of the house Will Atenton (Craig), may not be who he seems.

Anyone who has come across the film's trailer will be aware of the rather obvious twist that occurs in the film. How then is Dream House - which claims to be a mystery - going to work if we all know the twist before viewing? Put simply, the first half of the film doesn't work and the second half - whilst more entertaining - is by no means brilliant. Further contrived plot twists - which come thick and fast as we reach the film's climax - fail to captivate and the entire project ends up being a poor mishmash of cliches and ill-developed ideas.

There are further problems with Dream House however, notably a terrible performance from Weisz whose very suspect American accent fails to convince. Real-life husband Craig's performance fluctuates in overall quality but remains enjoyable enough, whilst Watts is unremarkable in every scene, leaving no lasting impression.

The overall failures of the film are probably best illustrated by its checkered production history. Sheridan himself has campaigned for the Directors Guild of America (DGA) to have his name removed from the project after a number of conflicts with the production company Morgan Creek Productions, who seized control during the editing process. Watching the film, one can sense that this was a production riddled with problems, most apparent in the extremely poor dialogue and script.

Dream House suffers from poor development, poor acting and a supposed central mystery that we've already anticipated. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of being torn between seeing this film or getting your Christmas shopping done, go with the latter.

Jason Taylor -- Investment Broker Ran Off With My Money!

1125_jason_taylor_EX_01
Jason Taylor has made a living out of chasing down quarterbacks -- now the NFL star is trying to chase down the man he says bilked him out of more than a quarter of a million dollars!

According to a lawsuit filed back in August, Taylor claims he gave $500,000 to a man named Eric Kim, who told Taylor he was an experienced securities investor. Taylor alleges Kim promised to invest the money on Taylor's behalf, and would do so without charging any fees ... except for 10% of whatever profits he made.

But alas ... Taylor says from August 2009 until March 2011, Kim "misappropriated" $275,269.10 of the money Taylor gave him. According to Taylor, Kim wrote 37 checks from the account he set up with Taylor's money ... 32 of which were either made out to Kim himself or to his good friend "cash."

Taylor is suing for fraud, among other things, and is looking for his money back, plus costs.

Calls to Kim's lawyers were not returned.

I'm A Celebrity: Sinitta reveals bedroom secrets of former lovers Brad Pitt ... - Scottish Daily Record

sinitta Image 3

SINITTA has risked the wrath of Simon Cowell and Brad Pitt by talking about their bedroom secrets.

The 48-year-old singer compared her two ex-boyfriends when she was asked on ITV's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! who was the best lover.

Musician Dougie Poynter, 23, said: "Who was better in bed, Simon or Brad?"

Grinning Sinitta replied: "Who do you think?"

Dougie said he thought it would be Hollywood hunk Brad and Sinitta said: "Why, because he's prettier?"

To laughter among the celebs, he replied: "No, I reckon Simon's sex life is too organised. It will be like, 'It is five past 10, we must have sex for seven minutes, darling'.

"Then afterwards it will be, 'That was shocking'."

Sinitta then seemed to suggest that she preferred Brad, 47, by revealing how she could not keep her eyes off him in bed.

Model Emily Scott, 28, asked what he looked like naked and Sinitta replied: "Hot. He was beautiful with the most amazing body. I saw him for two years."

Emily then asked how large Brad's manhood is, which made Dougie laugh.

"Much bigger than yours, Dougie," Sinitta joked.

She dated Brad in the late 80s, a few years after splitting from Simon.

Sinitta, who told in the past how she and fellow US star Brad drifted apart because of their long-distance relationship, told the celebs on the reality show: "Brad was fun. He was young and sweet. An ardent fan slapped me over that relationship.

"It was before he made Thelma & Louise but even I saw that movie and thought, 'Oh, God, what have I done?"

ITV insiders say they think other footage of Sinitta discussing Simon, 52, was cut to spare his blushes.

A source said: "Simon is a powerful figure because of The X Factor and Britain's Got Talent. We can have a little joke at his expense but nothing too cheeky."

Caesarean Births To Be Allowed On Request

Women are to be allowed to have their baby by caesarean section, even if they have no medical reason for the operation.

Controversial new guidelines issued by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice) say women should be allowed to have a C-section as long as they have first been counselled about the risks.

Previous guidelines warned that "maternal request" was not an acceptable reason for a caesarean.

But the increasing safety of the procedure in recent years has led some obstetricians to relax the rules.

The watchdog�insists that its new advice reflects current practice and will not mean every woman is offered a caesarean.

Deputy chief executive Dr Gillian Leng said: "This guideline is not about giving free caesareans for all on the NHS.�

"It is about ensuring that women give birth in the way that is most appropriate for them and their babies."

Obstetrician Malcolm Griffiths, who chaired the panel that wrote the guidelines, said most women want a natural delivery, not surgery.

"Caesarean section is a major operation - it's about as major as a hysterectomy," he said.

Women take longer to recover from a caesarean than a straightforward natural birth, and it can have implications for future pregnancies.

Currently one in four births is by caesarean. Between a third and a half are planned, usually because of medical reasons.

Nice believes the new guidelines will result in fewer women having the operation because those with a fear of childbirth will be offered mental health intervention to ease their anxiety.

But Tracey Johnston, clinical director of maternity services at the Birmingham Women's Hospital, disagreed and warned the guidelines will have an impact on hospitals.

"There is no doubt that the extra caesarean sections will put pressure on theatre time, on ward space because the women stay in hospital longer, and it's more expensive so it is a pull on resources."

A planned caesarean costs around �2,369 - around �700 more on average than a natural delivery.

The Royal College of Midwives said it was "inappropriate" for caesareans to be offered without good medical reasons.�

It warned that a shortage of midwives at a time of a rise in complex births was already putting maternity services under strain.

Mum Rhonda McDougall said the new guidelines were long overdue.�

She had to battle the medical profession to have her baby Alyssa delivered surgically, and finally got her way with the help of information from the Elective Caesarean website.

She said: "I did not want to be treated like an idiot hormonal woman, being told: 'This is how it works and this is what you were made for, so just do it.'

"I was informed. I came across the website and knew the pros and cons and that was my choice. At the end of the day it is my body."

Hundreds Hurt In Deadly Clashes In Cairo

At least one person has been killed and 676 people injured in clashes in Cairo after riot police stormed Tahrir Square to clear a protest camp, officials said.

Officers fired rubber bullets, tear gas and beat demonstrators with batons in the Egyptian capital.

Hundreds of protesters fought back, hurling stones and setting an armoured police vehicle ablaze.

The violence spilled into surrounding side streets in downtown Cairo. At least 18 people were reportedly arrested.

The camp had been set up to commemorate hundreds of demonstrators killed in the 18-day uprising that ousted president Hosni Mubarak in February.

The square had been a focal point for the anti-regime protests earlier in the year and activists were trying to restart a long-term sit-in, said witnesses.

"The people want to topple the regime," shouted enraged crowds, reviving the chant from the early days of the uprising.

Crowds also screamed: "Riot police are thugs and thieves" and "Down with the Marshal," referring to Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi, Egypt's military ruler.

The black-clad police were a hated symbol of Mubarak's regime and the latest violence happened just nine days before Egypt's first post-Mubarak parliamentary elections.

On Friday, tens of thousands of Islamists and young activists had massed in the square to protest against Egypt's ruling military council, which took control of the country after Mubarak was deposed.

Public anger is rising at the slow pace of reforms and apparent attempts by Egypt's ruling generals to retain power over a future civilian government.
