[Review] ‘Dream House’ Is a ’90s Mix Tape of Twists

Published

Now in theaters everywhere from Universal Pictures is Dream House, which was not screened for critics. Hitting up a midnight screening, I’m disappointed to report that Jim Sheridan’s supernatural thriller is nothing more than a mixtape of ’90s twist endings without any punch.

” ‘Dream House‘ is another one of those slow-stepping snoozers that forgets scares, suspense, drama and pacing… [It’s] an arrogant, snotty and pretentious piece of work that believes it’s smart, genuine and clever; it takes itself way too seriously… There’s not a lick of fun to be had, and if anything, the oddly upbeat score diminishes any tension that could have been worked into this overly complex mess of film.”
