Enola Holmes ~ Review

 

I am finally reviewing Enola Holmes. Shamefuly late I must say but....it's never too late to do a review. 

The film is about young Enola Holmes who is searching for her missing mom and encounters many things on her way. 

I was so excited for this film ! The funny thing was that I didn't even watch the trailer. I waited impatient for it's arrival on Netflix. I SAW IT THE MOMENT IS WAS ON NETFLIX πŸ˜„.

YEESSHHH, it was so good ! The whole storyline, the characters and all it's loveliness. 

I have seen this film 4 times by now !πŸ˜‚ And still it's beautiful. And I'm still fangirling over it :)

Gosh Millie as Enola was just soo perfect. The way she potraited this character is so unique and special. I just felt I was alongside her in the entire story. 

The cuteness, her facial expressions and the wildness like going on a bike through beautiful nature and doing reckless things made me even love her more. 

We see her develope throughout the whole story and the fact that she can fight makes me wanna do something productful like sportsπŸ˜‚!

I also love the fact that this film showed us Enola her life through the eyes of everyone who was watching that you where besides her. 

I LOVE HER !


Let me indulgde you and say that viscount Tewkesburry is the most sweetest character I've ever seen !😍

His eyes are the most beautiful and his face. The most caring, nature loving and sweetest character.

He's was smitten after he met Enola which makes it even better. 

WHAT NOT TO LOVE ?!

Millie Bobby Brown (jup Enola) and Louis Paltrigde (the viscount) just have the sweetest friendship 😊


Sidenote: wasn't big fan of this wig/ Tewkesbury's first hair before the haircut 


Sherlock is just wonderful. *there.....nothing more to say*

Enola's mom (played by Helena Bonham Carter) is just splendid. We didn't see her much but all her scenes with young Enola and her bond is just so lovely and wish I had made more adventures when I was younger.

You could find me outside a lot I must say when I was younger. Alongside my brother and 2 sisters we played 24/7 outside, making silly movies which turned out okayy and just playing around in every clothes we could find. 

We shall continue....

THE WHOLE COUNTRYSIDE, MUSIC AND LITTLE DETAILS are just scrumptious ! And the house😍 

 And let us not forget the costumes are pretty freakin' lovely !

I love that fact that Enola's mom gave her little clues in the most wonderful ways, like the flowers, scrabble and words that are spelled backwords. 

Everything is just wonderful in this film! 


 !!!!SPOILER !!!!
For everyone who hates spoilers and hasn't seen this movie yet but I do except you have because this film is already out since September

We got an handkiss between Enola and Tewkesbury and it was freakin cute too see. No kissing scene but that handkiss made it even more special because it was so common in those times. And Enola didn't was into the whole marriage/having an husband thing so yeah....but I might think that has changed a bit after meeting the viscount but who knows

!!!!SPOILER OVER!!!!!

 

Overal I really loved and enjoyed this film ! We also need a sequel!

What are your thoughts ???

Gilmore Girls (which boy I think is the best)

 

Hear ye my fellow bloggers ! I am back again with a post. 

Spoiler alerts for the ones who haven't seen the show yet or started watching !!!


Since I'm watching Gilmore Girls again (for the third time) I thought a post would be fun. I have done a review or didn't I ? My memories aren't that bright πŸ˜‚.

Let's talk about Rory Gilmore her boyfriends. She had 3 total, which is much if you ask me. 

 

 Dean Forester

Number one is Dean Forester. He's a jerk, overprotective and kinda boring. Now don't hate me for saying this but I really didn't like Dean at all, not even watching GG for the 3rd time. At the beginning he was kind and nice and I thought okay he's not bad. But throughout the seasons he became different. Now I say that it wasn't his fault only but the actions he makes sometimes. 

I really liked his hair in the beginning kinda cute. I really think he was a good first boyfriend and he had a nice personality in the beginning. But then Jess came in the picture and whooops it's turned to another perspective. He was very jealous and didn't trust Rory enough. I get that, because Rory was drawn to Jess and that effected both of them and their relationship.

I also really didn't like how Dean ended the relationshio. Everyone could hear it and that must have been very hard for Rory. He could have taken her somewhere private but I guess this shows how he is. Not bad but a jerk. Hhe broke up with her twice in public. 

Then he marries Lindsay while he isn't over Rory yet. He was 18 (correct me if I'm wrong) when he married and I think that is pretty young to get married. He was also so unkind to Lindsay just because he couldn't move on, Rory was in his mind. And the hair he gets is awful though, come on !

And let's talk about when he cheated on Lindsay with Rory. I mean what the heck. Rory should know better and Dean also. I was so confused when it happened and really mad. All I thought was poor Lindsay. She truly loved him and he was so horrible to her. She deserved better. 

Oh and let's not forget he was a stalker in season 1. Dean admitted to Rory that he was watching her all day while she was reading or walking. Talking about creepy right. 

''I'm watching you'' his words to be clear. Let's move on though !


Jess Mariano 

Number two is Jess Mariano ! Gosh look at him 😍

So he was the bad boy of all three, that just sounds so wrongπŸ˜‚. Jess is the nephew of Luke Danes who owns the famous Luke's Diner. 

Jess likes Rory the minute they meet while she is still with Dean. He is a jerk to anyone but Rory. 

I think Jess has a great personality even though he does show his jerk side a little too often but that is just him you know. When he and Rory are together they just are perfect and he is such a nice person. And let's talk about the fact that he never got jealous and trusted Rory !

He always inspires Rory to be a better person and he was the one who encouraged her to go back to Yale when she took a break and lived at her grandparents. How sweet is that !


 Also Rory inspired him too. Even though he had his problems and always behaved like a jerk Rory believed in him and also encouraged him to go after his dreams. 

Jess changed throughout the seasons unlike Dean. I really love that Rory was part of that change and I hated it when they broke up.Whenever Rory was feeling down he was there for her. He's swooping in like a heroπŸ˜„. He listens to Rory and even Lorelai liked him, not at first though. 

Jess is funny too. Remember the scene when he copied Luke when Luke told him to help him out in the diner? Hilarious !! And he always pulls pranks in the town, some really bad but who cares ! There hasn't been a dull moment when Jess arrived. And when a swan attacted him and everyone thought he got into a fight !πŸ˜‚.

Jess and Rory also share the same love of books. Both of them love books and both write an actual book of their own.

Alrighty ! Let's continue



Logan Huntzberger 

Number three is Logan Huntzberger. Okayy....

I must say he is the one that stayed the longest with Rory. They met on Yale and where fascinated by each other but Rory do thought he was pompous. 

Remember the time that Rory anttended a party at her grandparents house and Logan was there? And Dean came and said he didn't belong here anymore ? (meaning Rory's new life) ? Well let me say Logan was a jerk there. He wouldn't let Rory leave the party and he and his friends where making fun of Dean. Like what ?! 

Let me also say he was really really rich. Super rich.  

Logan challenged Rory too, letting her out of the comfort zone so she could do things like the Life and Death Brigade. He and Rory jumped together of a big thing with umbrella's. They have fun together. 

He embarrased her in class. Performing a little stunt where he and his friends pretended to fight over her feelings, not knowing how much this would effect her. 

They stole a yacht. I'm not saying Logan has a bad influence on Rory, he does though, but being with him made her steal a yacht which ended up in jail. 

He encouraged her taking a break from Yale. He let her and didn't say anything about it. This does show his good side that he let her decide what to do but I feel he could have not encouraged her.

Logan likes books too. They always debate on subjects and I really love that. They have chemistry in their relationship. 


 I didn't like his family. They treated Rory very poorly and Logan didn't do much. He did stand up for her at a diner when his mom said Rory wasn't good for him and she doesn't have what it takes to be in the family. A great point from Logan, standing up against his family !

His father was just awful. He gave Rory an internship and just brushed her aside. Told her she didn't have what it takes to be an journalist. This effected Rory so badly that she dropped out of Yale and caused so much trouble. 

Also let me mention the time Logan cheated on Rory. Logan's ideas of commitment are so different from Rory's. While Rory wanted to be together but he didn't. While they where on a break but not broken up Logan cheated on Rory with his sister's bridemaids. He thought they broke up but Rory never said it. 

Overall he had his good sides and bad sides. 

Who do you think was the best of the boys ???


My answer would be Jess Mariano.πŸ’–
