Review: Looper

Jeg var som sagt i biografen sidste fredag, hvor jeg så filmen Looper. Det er en action/sci-fi/thriller, som jeg helt sikkert vil anbefale I får set. Her er en kort anmeldelse.

Kort om filmen:
Den handler om hvordan mafiaen i 2074 har en tidsmaskine, som de bruger til at sende folk 30 år tilbage i tiden med, hvor de så har en lejemorder klar til at slå dem ihjel og skaffe sig af med ligende. En af de lejemordere er Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), som en dag finder ud af at mafiaen lukker alles "loop" og han er den næste på listen. Det vil sige hans fremtidig selv (Bruce Willis) bliver sendt tilbage i tiden for at han kan slå sig selv ihjel... (mere vil jeg ikke sige... Den skal ses!) Se trailer her.

Jeg indrømmer gerne, at jeg er ret så begejstret for filmen. Det er ikke noget man har set før, og jeg var virkelig fanget af den. Den er rigtig godt lavet med fede effekter. Og det er en af de film man skal se en ekstra gang for at være helt med. Den fik mig i hvert fald til at tænke... To dage efter snakkede kæresten og jeg stadig om den. Kan man lide film som Inception og Matrix, samt skuespillerne Joseph og Bruce, så skal man se denne film! Den er cool!

Last Friday I went to the cinema to watch Looper, starring Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. It's an action/sci-fi/thriller, which I highly recommend you go watch. Here's a short review.

About the film:
When the mob in 2074 wants to get rid of someone they send them 30 years back in time, where there's a hired gun man waiting to kill them and dispose the body. Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is a so called "Looper" working as a hitman, until he one day realises he's next in line to getting his "loop" closed, meaning they are going to send his future self (Bruce Willis) back... (I don't wanna say much more, watch it!) See trailer here.

I must admit I really like this film. It nothing I've ever seen before and it really captured my attention through the entire film. It's really well made too. It's one of those film you have to see twice though. It certainly made me think... Mr. Boyfriend and I was still talking about it days after. So if you like films like Inception and Matrix and the actors Joseph and Bruce, you should definitely go see this film! It's cool!

Friday feel good song #38

Det er jo ret oplagt at fredagens sang er soundtracket fra dagens filmpremiere Skyfall. Jeg skal nemlig selv ind og se den i aften, hvilket jeg glæder mig rigtig meget til. Jeg har faktisk aldrig set de gamle James Bond film, kun et par med Pierce Brosnan så vidt jeg huske. Jeg er dog fan af de nye med Daniel Craig. Den genre af film går lige ind hos mig :) Så om 7 timer sider jeg klar i biografen til en hyggelig filmaften med kæresten. Vi var faktisk også i biografen sidste fredag. Hvad vi så vil jeg fortælle om i et andet indlæg med en lille anmeldelse af filmen. God fredag til jer alle!

So I thought it would be quite fitting to have this as today's song, since the film premieres today! I'm going to see it later tonight, can't wait. I haven't actually seen the old films, but I love the ones with Daniel Craig. I do like action films. In less than 7 hours I'll be in the cinema ready for a film night with Mr. Boyfriend. We were actually in the cinema last Friday too. I'm going to make a little review of the film in another post, so stay tuned. Have a nice Friday!

New in: 2 new necklaces

I går var kæresten og jeg til forpremiere på "Snow White and the Huntsman". Jeg elsker adventure/middelalder/ringenes herre lignende film, så dette var lige efter min smag. Jeg synes filmen var rigtig god og er vild med den "nye" fortælling. Nu var den efter min mening ikke så langt fra den originale, bare noget mere dramatisk. Jeg kan dog ikke helt beslutte mig for, hvor vidt jeg er vild med Kristen Stewarts præstation. Jeg synes ikke altid, at hun var lige overbevisende. Filmen er dog i sig selv helt sikkert værd at se, hvis man er til den type film!

Efter filmen gik det op for os at der åbenbart var Open By Night i Århus. Aldrig har jeg set så mange mennesker i byen! Det var jo nærmest kaotisk og alligevel fik jeg hævet kæresten med rundt for at kigge lidt. Jeg er ikke god til udsalg, da jeg simpelthen ikke kan overskue menneskemængden, så jeg fik ikke købt nogle af alle de gode tilbud. Til gengældt fandt jeg disse to fine halskæder i Gina Tricot. Jeg har før kigget på den med korsene og til kun 79,- stk. kunne jeg ikke lade være med at tage begge med hjem. Der kommer outfit billeder med den ene senere i aften.

I didn't realise until I was in town and saw all the people last night that apparently it was "Open by Night" here in Aarhus. Meaning that all the shops were open till midnight! I therefore had a little look around some shops and found these two gorgeous necklaces from Gina Tricot. I'll be posting an outfit later with one of them.

The Avengers

Ihh hvor jeg synes, at jeg har ventet længe på at denne film kom ud. Ventetiden er dog over nu, og jeg har bestilt min billet til i aften. Jeg skal dog først lige til badminton med kæresten, hjem og spise, og så i bad og gøre mig klar. Inden filmen mødes vi med et vennepar til et par drinks og så tager vi sammen ind og ser filmen. Glæder mig så meget! Elsker superhelte film. Kan I ha´ en rigtig god fredag aften!

I feel like I've waited forever for this film to come out. But the wait is now over and I've bought my ticket for tonight. First I have to play badminton with Mr. boyfriend though and eat, and get ready. Then we're off to a café for drinks with another couple and then the cinema. Can't wait! I love superhero films. Have a nice Friday eve!

Real Steel

Igår eftermiddags var kæresten og jeg i biografen for at se Real Steel. En film om boksende robotter. Jeg valgte nok mest filmen p.g.a. den pæne fyr som har hovedrollen, Hugh Jackman. Han er jo dejlig! Men ellers så filmen da også ret cool ud. Og jeg var da også godt underholdt det meste af filmen. Den lille dreng i filmen er ikke den bedste skuespiller, men det er til at leve med. Jeg synes det var en meget sød historie. Typisk amerikansk, men det er der vel heller intet i vejen for? Jeg vil anbefale at man ser den, men det er ikke en man behøver at gå i biografen for.

Yesterday afternoon I went to the cinema to watch Real Steel. I film about boxing robots. I picked the film mostly because of the leading role being played by Hugh Jackman. I like him a lot :) But the film looked pretty cool too! I was entertained most of the film and although the little boy wasn't the greatest actor, I still enjoyed it. It's a very sweet story. I recommend you watch it, but it's not a "need to watch in the cinema" film.

Seasonal films

I går aftes var kæresten og jeg i biografen for at se New Year's Eve. Jeg har længe gerne ville se den, men havde lidt tænkt at det er en af de film man ikke behøver at se i biografen. Vi fik dog lyst til at komme lidt ud så hvorfor ikke? Den har som i kan se et hav af kendte mennesker med, hvilket også tiltrak mig. Når så mange kendte går sammen om et filmprojekt må de jo synes det er godt. Jeg havde dog taget forbehold for at det ville være en typisk amerikansk romantisk film og det er også præcis hvad det er. Den nemmeste måde at beskrive filmen på er en blanding af Valentine's Day og Love Actually. Det betyder ikke at den er dårlig, men den kan sagtens ses hjemme på sofaen. Den gjorde mig dog i meget bedre humør og nu glæder jeg mig til nytår! I aften tror jeg faktisk at jeg vil se Love Actually, som efter min mening er en af de ultimative bedste film at se til jul. Så er jeg også i godt humør til i morgen, hvor jeg lige skal igennem den sidste arbejdsdag inden jul.

I watched New Year's Eve in the cinema last night. A typical american romantic film that brings you in a wonderful mood for New Year's. It's packed with A-list actors and celebs and is kinda a mix of Valentine's Day + Love Actually. It was a bit predictable, but it got me in a good mood for the holidays so I'm happy. I think I'll watch Love Actually tonight. Such a good film for Christmas!

Breaking Dawn Pre-premiere

I aften vil jeg være at finde til dette event i biografen. Glæder mig så meget til at se første del af "Breaking Dawn". Jeg har læst bøgerne så ved godt hvad der sker, men er spændt på at se hvordan de har lavet det hele. Jeg kommer kun lige hjem fra arbejde for hurtigt at skifte, så i byen for at spise og videre i biografen. Hvad er jeres forhold til Twilight, fan or not?

Tonight I'll be going to the pre-premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn part 1! I'm so excited! Can't wait to see it. Are you a Twilight fan or not?

Outfit of the day - stripped off

H&M jeans and shirt - Asos clutch - Urban Outfitters wedges

Jeg kom lidt hurtigt ud af døren i går aftes, så nåede desværre ikke at tage et billede af mit outfit. I får det derfor på sofaen istedet. Knap så inspirerende, men jeg håber det går. Igår aftes var jeg i byen og spise, samt i biografen med mine kolleger fra mit nuværende arbejde. Vi fik lækker mad på Café Ziggy ved åen, som helt sikkert kan anbefales. Jeg fik deres Kyllingeburger, som smagte rigtig godt. Bagefter var vi i biffen og se Tømmermænd i Thailand. Jeg var knap så imponeret af filmen, selvom den da havde nogle sjove stunder. Jeg synes helt klart at etteren er bedst! Det var bare lidt for meget det samme igen, så jeg håber ikke de laver flere. Det var dog en rigtig hyggelig aften alligevel.

I forgot to get a picture of last nights outfit, so you're getting it on the sofa instead. Not so inspiring I know, but I hope it's okay. Last night I went out for dinner and to the cinema with work. We had a really nice meal in town and watched the Hangover Part 2. I didn't find it as funny as the first one though. It was pretty much the same, just a different place and with a few new people. I still had a really good evening though.

Pre holiday celebrations

I sidste uge bestilte jeg disse biografbilletter til Foo Fighters dokumentarfilmen "Back And Forth". Filmen blev vist i de engelske biografer en enkel gang for et par måneder siden. Kæresten og jeg var ret skuffet over ikke at kunne se den. Jeg har siden da gået og håbet på at den ville komme til Danmark også, men havde faktisk ikke regnet med det, så det var en dejlig overraskelse jeg fik på mail fra Biocity i onsdags. Udover dokumentarfilmen skulle forestillingen også indeholde en 3D koncert oplevelse med bandet, hvilket forklare 3D brillerne :) Jeg glæder mig rigtig meget til at se det hele. Det er jo en lille slags optakt til vores ferie i juli, hvor vi skal se Foo Fighters i Milton Keynes!

NB: Jeg har netop læst at filmen også udkommer på dvd og Blu-Ray henholdsvis 6. og 13. juni, og at der i den forbindelse vil blive tilføjet 35 minutters ekstra materiale.

I ordered these cinema tickets last week for the Foo Fighters documentary "Back And Forth". It was shown in the English cinemas a couple of months ago, but only once! Which first of all is crazy! My boyfriend and I was quite gutted not being able to watch it back then. I've been hoping and praying for it to come to Denmark, but I honestly didn't think it was going to happen! It was therefore a very nice surprise when I received an e-mail about it last Wednesday. On top of the documentary there should be a 3D concert with the guys, hence the 3D glasses. I can't wait to watch it! It's like a little pre holiday celebration before we go and see them at Milton Keynes in July!

NB: I've just read that the film is coming out on dvd in Denmark today! And it will include 35 minutes extra material.

EASY A

Har I set filmen Easy A? Det er en typisk chick-flick film, men faktisk ret underholdende. Jeg så den for en måneds tid siden og havde faktisk lidt glemt den igen, indtil at jeg faldt over dette klip på en tilfældig blog. Jeg kendte ikke meget til skuespilleren Emma Stone før denne film, men jeg synes hun spiller denne rolle ret godt! Desværre har jeg nu fået denne sang på hjernen, typisk! Og det eneste jeg kan af den er "I've got a pocket, got a pocket full of sunshine...". Hvis man er til Mean Girls, 10 things I hate about you og alle de chick-flick film der ellers findes, så vil jeg helt klart anbefale at man ser denne. God weekend alle sammen!

Have you seen the film Easy A? It's a typical chick-flick film, although very entertaining. I watched it about a month ago and had kinda forgotten about it until I found this clip on another blog. I think actor Emma Stone is quite cool in this role. Unfortunately I've now got the song stuck in my head and all I know of it is "I've got a pocket, got a pocket full of sunshine...". If you like films such as Mean Girls and 10 things I hate about you, I'll recommend you watch this. Have a great weekend everyone!

Watch out, it's the devil!

Så er weekenden snart slut igen, øv. Jeg ku´ godt lige bruge en ekstra dag eller to. Jeg har brugt det meste af denne weekend på pligter som vasketøj og rengøring, ikke just spændende, men det skal jo også ordnes. Jeg har også fået pakket alt mit sommertøj væk, så der er bare en smule plads til kærestens tøj, når han kommer. Det bliver nok lidt trængt de første par måneder, indtil vi flytter, men det vigtigste er jo at han er her! Derude over er jeg også begyndt at tænke på næste weekend. Det er kærestens fødselsdag, så jeg smutter på et kort visit i England. Glæder mig som altid rigtig meget. Det bliver dog første gang, at jeg er der uden at shoppe! Har slet ingen penge, så det går altså ikke... Istedet skal vi spise middag med nogle venner fredag, og så i byen lørdag for at fejre hans søster og hans fødselsdag. Det skal nok blive rigtig sjovt! Her til aften skal jeg bare slappe af. Ender nok med at se the Devil Wears Prada, men den er jo også meget god :) Håber I har haft en dejlig weekend!

So the weekend is coming to an end, boohoo. I could use an extra day or two. I've spent most of this weekend with duties such as laundry and cleaning, not exactly exciting, but something that has to be done. I have also packed all my summer clothes away, so there's a bit of room for my boyfriend's clothes when he comes. It will be a little crowded the first few months until we move, but the important thing is that he is here! I've also started thinking about next weekend. It's my boyfriend's birthday so I'm going on a short trip to the UK. I'm excited as always. However, it will be the first time that I'm there without going shopping! I have no money, so I really can't... Instead, we are having dinner with some friends Friday, and then going out on the Saturday to celebrate his sister and his birthday. It'll be great fun! Tonight, I'm just gonna relax. I'll probably end up watching the Devil Wears Prada (which is on TV), but it's also a good film :) Hope you had a nice weekend!

The weekend at a glance

Så blev det mandag igen. Hvorfor går weekenden altid så hurtig? Jeg har haft en rigtig dejlig afslappet weekend med kæresten, som nu desværre er taget hjem igen. Vi har hygget med lidt shopping, god mad, film og serier. Vi så bl.a. Grown Ups igår, hvilket faktisk var meget underholdende. Den kan helt sikkert anbefales, hvis man vil slappe af med en god komedie. Vi fik også set X Factor, hvilket vi begge følger med i. Jeg har hidtil ikke være særlig stor fan af den unge Cher, men hendes optræden i lørdagens show var faktisk rigtig god. Hun fik helt klart vist, at hun kan synge. Hun er ikke min favorit til at vinde showet, og jeg er stadig ikke vild med hende som person, men hun skal da have lidt kredit for hendes talent. I får derfor her videoen fra hendes optræden lørdag. Hvad synes I? Følger I med i X Factor og hvem er Jeres favorit?

So it's Monday again. Why do weekends always go by so quick? I've had a lovely relaxing weekend with my boyfriend, who's now sadly gone home again. We've been having fun with some shopping, good food, films and series. Yesterday we watched Grown Ups, which is actually very entertaining. I can certainly recommend it if you want to relax with a good comedy. We also watched The X Factor. I have never been a big fan of the young Cher, but her performance in Saturday's show was actually pretty good. She definitely proved that she can sing. She is not my favorite to win the show, and I'm still not crazy about her as a person, but I think she should have some credit for her talent. You can see her performance in the video. What do you think? Do you watch the show and who's your favourite?

Long journey home + Moulin Rouge

Aarhus train station

I går var store rejsedag for kæresten og jeg. Vi skulle hele den lange vej fra Næstved (som jeg nu har fundet ud af, ligger ret meget på Sydsjælland) til Århus. Det er altså noget af en tur! Det hjalp heller ikke så meget, at vi begge var lidt tømmermands ramte efter lørdagens fest. Vi kom dog tilbage til Århus efter 7 timers rejse, med 1½ times stop i Odense. Vi var ret smadret derefter, og endte derfor i sengen med Kinesisk take away og Moulin Rouge. Jeg har i en uges tid haft et behov for at se den film igen. Jeg synes den er fantastisk! Nok min ynglings musical! Kæresten havde aldrig set den, hvilket er forståeligt, men stadig for dårligt. Jeg tror dog ikke på nogen måde, at han var lige så begejstret som mig, men han kunne dog sagtens forstå min kærlighed til den :) Jeg håber I har haft en dejlig weekend, det har jeg bestemt!

Yesterday was a big travelling day for my boyfriend and I. We had to go all the way from Næstved to Aarhus, which is crossing the country and quite a journey. And it didn't help much that we were both hungover from Saturdays amazing party. We did get there eventually, after 7 hours of travelling. We were both so tired so we ended up in bed with Chinese take away and Moulin Rouge. I've been wanting to watch it again for over a week. I think it's amazing, my favourite musical! I don't think my boyfriend was as into it as me, but at least he could understand why I love it so much! I hope you've all had a great weekend, I sure did!

Lunch date with Edward & Jacob

I dag er der premiere på Eclipse, og jeg skal selvfølgelig ind og se den! Det bliver dog her til middag, da kæresten skal hjem i aften. Det er ved at være noget tid siden, at jeg læste bogen, så der er småting, jeg ikke kan huske. Glæder mig til at se hvordan de forskellige scener er lavet!

Today it's the premiere of Eclipse and I'm off to see it very soon. It's a lunch date because my boyfriend is leaving tonight. Can't wait to see how they have made the different scenes!

Twilight cast might get sacked!

I found a very interesting article in a Danish newspaper today. Apparently filming of the fourth book “Breaking Dawn” has been in jeopardy because actors from the cast have demanded a significant pay increase. The actors have all signed a contract that covers four films, but the last book is going to be divided into two films, which makes the total five and therefore a new contract have to be made.

Kellan Lutz (Emmett Cullen) and Ashley Greene (Alice Cullen) (picture below), wants as much money as the three main stars of the films, Kristen, Taylor and Robert. This is a very risky move in my opinion, as they could very well get sacked! It happened to Rachelle Lafevre (Victoria) after the second film. I really hope it doesn’t happen to them. Having someone else to play Emmett and Alice in the last film would kind of ruin it for me! I hope the director understand the importance of keeping them in the film, for the fans!

Læs den danske artikel her, side 34.

This picture is from a premiere. I didn’t know this, but Kellan and Ashley are said to be BFF and they've been hanging out a lot lately, maybe they are more than just friends?!

Chinese + film

Leather jacket - H&M, Silk zip dress - Topshop, Leggings - H&M, Boots - Havanna Shoes

It's been a really good weekend for me. I haven't had a lot of time to blog though. But now I am back with a few things. Here is my outfit from Friday night. My boyfriend and I went out for a meal at a Chinese restaurant, The Great Wall in Aarhus. We had a great buffet with lots of tasty food and I tried sushi for the first time! Not really sure I get what the big deal is about it...

Afterwards we went to the cinema to watch Iron Man 2. I thought it was really good, very entertaining! But then again I'm a big fan of superhero/comic book films. The plot wasn't that surprising though. You kinda knew what was going to happen, but still worth watching. I did notice that most of the people in the cinema were guys ;)

Sex and the City 2 poster

I just found this new poster for Sex and the City 2 on a Danish news page. They were giving it quite a lot of criticism, saying that it's impossible to recognize the ladies. And to be honest I understand them. It's so easy to see that it's been photo-shopped and it's not even done very well. I think Carrie and Samantha looks kinda weird in their faces. But maybe they are suppose to, I don't know. I'm not impressed at all! What do you think of it?

Read the Danish article here.

Live from the UK

Just a little update from the UK. I've been pretty busy since I got here. I am having a really good time though, really love it here! Except for the rain, it's been quite bad while I've been here, so typical. Anyway, I went to see my sister and nephew Wednesday when I got here. He's growing so fast, just turned 2 years! He really loves Carl (my boyfriend), he had to play with him most of the time we were there, so cute. On the Thursday I went for a crazy shopping day, first in the local town Salisbury and later in Southampton down by the coast. I have bought a lot of things, really done some crazy shopping, but it's so cheap over here I just can't help myself. And I've actually completed my mission of buying lots of colourful flowery clothes. Really proud of myself and I love all of it. Can't wait for the summer to come so I can wear it all. I'll show you pictures of things when I get back home.

Thursday night I had a meeting with some friends about planning a trip to Denmark this summer. Will be really cool to show them my country. Especially cause most of them have never been there! So hopefully it will get sorted and there'll be about 6 people coming :) Friday night we were a lot of people going out in town, had a really good night and lots of fun. Already pictures up on facebook. I look really awful and quite drunk on most of them though, not good... Yesterday I was in bed most of the day feeling a little hungover but in the evening I went out for a meal with my boyfriend and we went to the cinema to see Clash of the Titans. Staring Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen. Was an okay film, but for 3D it wasn't really that amazing!

Okay that's all for now. I'll be back blogging on Tuesday when I'm home again. Happy Easter everyone! I hope you're all enjoying it!

New Moon out on DVD

I'm a big fan of the Twilight Saga. I've been hooked ever since I saw the first film and afterwards reading all the books. Number two film in the Saga: New Moon came out on Dvd last week. I bought it for the weekend and watched it with my family since they hadn't seen it. So far it's not my favourite one, but the book wasn't either, so that's okay, still a good film though! I just can't wait for the last two to come out! Really excited to see how they've done it. Eclipse which is the 3rd book comes out in the cinemas on the 30th of June, the day after my b'day, yay!

What do you think of the Twilight Saga? Have you read the books?
