Dream House

Movie Review by Russell Pinkston

Will Atenton (Daniel Craig) is a book publisher who lives with his wife and kids in the suburbs.  Seems normal enought but strange things begin happening.   He and his wife Libby (Rachel Weisz) sees and chases a peeping tom, he catches goth kids hanging out in his basement.     The cops won’t do anything to help him.    He begins to think that something may have happened in the house with the prior owners.  He searches to uncover the mysteries of his house.   His neighbor, Ann (Naomi Watts) helps him uncover the secrets that have been buried there for over 5 years. 

Daniel Craig (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Casino Royale), Rachel Weisz (Enemy at the Gates, The Mummy) and Naomi Watts (The Ring 1 & 2), King Kong) all have top billing in this “horror” movie.  I didn’t think it was scary at all (both my kids watched it as well).  
I don’t want to give away too much of the movie (like the trailer did) but I liked it alot more than I thought I would.  I liked the story and all the twists and turns in it.  Probably could have been a little more creepy or dark but overall I enjoyed watching it.   I say RENT THIS MOVIE but don’t watch the trailer cause it gives way too much of the movie away.
