Get ready for VSFS 2016!
I've been wondering when something about this year's Victoria's secret fashion show will be announced and this week they finally did it! The world’s most famous runway show heads to the Paris for the first time ever! Filming is on November 30th, airing on December 5th.
The show will have 6 segments: The Road Ahead, Secret Angel, Mountain Romance, Pink nation, Dark Angel and Bright Night Angel.
Of course one of the biggest questions was also who will be wearing the Fantasy Bra. My guess was Sara Sampaio or Jasmine Tookes. What can I say? I was right! Jasmine Tookes will wear it. Well deserved!
And her she is in the FB. She is so beautiful but this is not the best shot.
Models confirmed to walk in the show include Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Lily Aldridge, Elsa Hosk, Jasmine Tookes, Josephine Skriver, Lais Ribeiro, Martha Hunt, Romee Strijd, Sara Sampaio, Stella Maxwell, Taylor Hill, Izabel Goulart, Bridget Malcolm, Ming Xi, Sanne Vloet, Kelly Gale, Valery Kaufman and Sui He.
For me VSFS is losing interest for a few years now and since Bee (Behati Prinsloo) and Candice (Candice Swanepoel ) will also be missing (they both just had babies) I'm not that excited. On the postitive: Paris sounds good and I'm happy some girls, e.g. Bridget Malcom will return! We'll see!

Fantastic film!
I'm quite critical when it comes to modern society, the way most of us live and how kids are raised these days so this film was really appealing to me. It offers thought-provoking themes and raises many questions. Cast is marvelous, especially Viggo. Also good storytelling and cinematography but what I like the most is that the movie doesn't show how one should or should not live. There is no 100% right way how to live. It's clever, heartfelt, well written and interesting. There is no such thing as normal. A must see! 4/5

Watchable teen thriller!
The film current (like social media or Pokemon Go), fast paced, real enough and interesting to watch. The concept of the movie is good but execution could be better. For me it's a wasted potential. Just too predictable on so many levels (from characters to storyline). Nevertheless it's still watchable with stylish neon feel to it and solid performances by Emma Roberts and Dave Franco. Do you dare to watch? 3-/5

It's one of those seen it before (at least a hundred times) action clichés with cheesy story, lousy CGI effects, poor acting and no point whatsoever. On a good side. Jason Statham and Jessica Alba are usually a pleasure to watch even if they are not doing their best and I did like two action 'tricks' in the film I haven't seen before. And locations look great! Otherwise a waste of time. 2/5

Awesome film! Great cast (Bryan is amazing as always) and compelling fact-based story are sometimes enough to make movie really good. I also love how the film captures the look and feel of the era, how characters are not only good/bad but humans. It's start a bit slow but it only gets better. On 2016 must see list for sure. Recommended! 4/5

I love the book, I love Emily Blunt and I know you can't compare book with the movie and still... I am disappointed. The biggest thing missing is the feeling and there is too little character development. In a book you get to know what people meant to each other while film is just impersonal, bland and hollow. Events and people are preseneted like they are one dimensional things (except Rachel's character). And it becomes way melodramatic for my taste. It's not a bad movie and it's not a good adaptation of the book. The cast did good but this wasn't enough to make the film great and get it to a higher level. 3/5
