Movie weekend

Today is my seveneth day of my new diet and I am happy to say I lost 3lb this week, I have been on the special K diet where I eat two bowls a day one for breakfast and one for lunch then a sensible meal in the evening. I have also cut out all soda, chocolate, cakes and crisps. I am usually terrible at sticking to diet but I am actually enjoying this one I am really motivated to get back in to shape and keep a healthy diet.
On thursday I also started Zumba, I have done salsa and contry dancing in the past but nothing this energetic. To say I have the rythm of an ironing board is an understatement but I will get the hang of it in the end :)

I managed to get to the cinema this weekend and watch the new cowboy and aliens and it is fantastic. It makes a change for Harrison Ford to play a bad guy however he pulled it off and even made the characther likeable so even though you start off hating him you end up routing for him. Daniel Craig as always doesn't disappoint however his performance did remind me slighy of James Bond but I love Bond and I loved this. So Craig plays a wanted outlaw Jake who wakes up in the desert with no memory and a strange bracelet on his wrist heads in to the nearest town. When he arrives a series of events lead him right in the middle of an attack by alien ships. The bracelet on his wrist activates and he manages to destroy on of the craft. Harrison Ford plays a grumpy civil war vet Dolarhyde and together with Craig they set out to save the towns people which includes Dolarhyde son. They mount a rescue group and it consist of a cowardly doctor looking for his wife, a precher, sherifs young grandson and a strange woman Ella who is just quite not what she seems. Ella is played by Olivia Wilde who to be honest did out shine the leading guys in some parts, but I don't want to give to much away and spoil it. This is a must see and you will be kicking yourself if you miss it.

Beastly - Now this film I have been waiting months to watch, I know it is pretty obvious what is going to happen because we have all seen the film Beauty and the beast. However I can't resist a good love story and this film does not disappoint. It stars Vanessa Hudgens and Alex Pettyfer. Pettyfer plays a self obessed teen who thinks looks are everything, when he humiliates a fellow student who happens to be a witch she curses him that if he doesn't find love in a year he will remain ugly and she make him to what he thinks as unloveable and hideous. Hudgens plays a daughter of a drug addict and she is sent to stay with Pettyfer for her protection and overtime she falls in love with him. But does she break the curse? Watch to find out this is a great film

Insidious - Now when I saw this advertised at the cinema the trailer scared me which is rare because I love horror films. However I saw it in blockbuster and thought I would give it ago. It has quite a good storyline but could have a been better in some parts, but the scare factor is great at one point I had goosebumps. Ending could have been better as it just finishes at a cliffhanger which makes you think what was the whole point if you are going to end it like that. But as a stand alone horror it doesn't disappoint one to watch if you fancy being scared senseless
