Hokum review – Adam Scott dour and grumpy in enjoyably eerie rural horror

-
A writer’s retreat to the remote Irish hotel in which his parents spent their honeymoon brings him face-to-face with all manner of creepy goings-on in a gruesome and eccentric black-comic shocker Adam Scott has an unexpectedly dark, unsympathetic character to play in this black-comic supernatural horror which thumps you with some pretty efficient jump scares. He plays Ohm, a successful American writer brooding over the brutally nihilistic ending to his latest novel; he is also lonely, sliding into alcoholism and clearly agonised by some unacknowledged pain in his personal life. Ohm decides the time is right to take the ashes of his dead parents – which he has kept for years – and scatter them in the one place he knows they were happy, and where he perhaps hopes to siphon off some postdated happiness for himself. This is a run-down hotel in remote, rural Ireland where his mum and dad spent their honeymoon. Arriving in this picturesque but faintly disturbing place, where he is the only...

In a red bikini and without makeup: Rihanna is resting in Barbados and preparing for childbirth

In a red bikini and without makeup: Rihanna is resting in Barbados and preparing for childbirth Pregnant singer and A$AP Rocky spend all their time together after recent rapper cheating rumors. In anticipation of their first child, the lovers came to Barbados, where their families live. Despite recent rumors about the rapper's affair with designer Amina Muaddi, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are doing great: the couple is sunbathing and splashing in the warm Caribbean Sea in the singer's native Barbados. Reporters spotted the parents-to-be on one of the beaches, with A$AP Rocky riding a jet ski while Riri and her family watched from the shore. From time to time, the singer looked at the horizon through binoculars to make sure that everything was in order with her lover, waved her hand to him, and he waved back. Rihanna chose a red bikini with a knitted mini-skirt for a family vacation on the beach, collected unruly curls in a sloppy bun, and collected wholly abandoned makeup. The first billionaire of Barbados complemented the relaxed but bright and stylish outfit with her favorite gold jewelry. A$AP Rocky wore bright blue Adidas shorts and a white printed t-shirt. The future father also got into the camera lenses: A$AP Rocky cut through the waves on a jet ski. The pictures show how Rihanna looks through binoculars toward the ocean and smiles at her lover. The paparazzi captured the expectant mother in a bright orange bikini. The pop star was walking along the ocean coast in the company of close friends. Happy Rihanna and A$AP Rocky vacation in Barbados after rapper cheating rumors. In an interview, the couple confirmed their relationship in May 2021 when the rapper called Rihanna "the love of his life." And at the end of January, the Daily Mail published the first photos of the pregnant singer.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
