The Great Gatsby, Beware Of Mr Baker, Fast And Furious 6: this week's new films
8 hours ago | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
The Great Gatsby | Beware Of Mr Baker | Fast And Furious 6 | The Stoker | The Liability | Rangeelay
The Great Gatsby (12A)
(Baz Luhrmann, 2013, Us) Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, Joel Edgerton, Elizabeth Debicki. 143 mins
No one's disputing that Luhrmann can put on a show, but can he tell a story? In a way, F Scott Fitzgerald's 1920s parable is a perfect fit: a study of surfaces and seduction and the hollowness of the wealthy. The hedonism and vulgarity are ravishing to behold and the hand-tinted-photo aesthetic is gorgeous. When the fireworks die down, however, that artificiality works against the romantic tragedy, and the characters are too flat to really stir any great emotions. Maybe that's the point.
Beware Of Mr Baker (15)
(Jay Bulger, 2012, Us) 92 mins
When it comes to great rock bio-doc material, Ginger Baker doesn't disappoint on any front: prodigious talent, eventful career (Cream, Blind Faith and Fela Kuti »

Jay-z and Beyoncé Get Supercute in Cuba Snaps
15 hours ago | Popsugar.com | See recent Popsugar news »
Beyoncé and Jay-z may have taken their controversial trip to Cuba more than a month ago, but she recently released new - and totally adorable - images of their anniversary getaway on Tumblr. Beyoncé and Jay-z cuddled up in a few of the snaps, while Beyoncé went solo in others. Since they wrapped up their getaway in April, it's been all about business for Beyoncé. Her bikini ads for H&M were released, she kicked off her Mrs. Carter Show world tour, promoted her voice role in Epic, and walked the red carpet at the Met Gala. While the tour continues, Beyoncé is now facing pregnancy rumors after she canceled a performance in Belgium earlier this week. She returned to the stage on Wednesday and is expected to perform in Zurich tonight. Regardless of the speculation about baby number two, one thing is for sure - these pics of her and Jay-z are too cute, »

Beyonce Pregnant Again? Sources Confirm 'Epic' Star Is Carrying Baby No. 2
17 hours ago | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
Turns out those Beyonce pregnancy reports are more than just speculation. Multiple sources have confirmed to E! News that the "Epic" star and her rapper husband, Jay-z, are expecting baby number two. While the couple have yet to comment or confirm, fellow hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons tweeted his congratulations to the couple. Hmm, interesting. Very interesting. Speculation about whether Blue Ivy's mom was again with child began after photos of Bey looking a little bit bigger in the tummy region while on tour popped up on the Internet. The NY Post then reported that sources had confirmed to them that the singer was, in fact, pregnant. As you may recall, Beyonce announced her first pregnancy without saying a word -- she just showed up at the MTV Video Music Awards sporting an unmistakable baby bump and rubbed her belly. In other words, there's no telling when or how Beyonce will announce baby number two. »
