Movie night: Bridget has a baby

Last night, my two friends and I went to Novo mesto to see the new Bridget Jones movie – Bridget has a baby. This was my girl's ˝night˝ out after a long time and I was super excited for days. I even planned my outfit, including nail polish and perfume – this sounds so desperately I know, but I rarely go out. My ˝life˝ mostly happens at work, regular trips to shopping malls and of course visits to my boyfriend in Ljubljana. I usually wear jeans, my favorite shoes are Sketchers. This year I promised myself that I will invest in more elegant clothes, no more girly T-shirts and childish patterns. Ok, I got carried away.


Our little trip was short, but awesome. Firstly we went to a bookstore to buy some presents for upcoming family birthdays. We could just stay there forever admiring nicely designed book covers and playing with children’s books. Who say that men are visual creatures? We are obsessed with shiny things and we just want to buy everything possible. Then we went on the sunny terrace for a coffee and good old girl talk. There were so many topics to catch up. We had some serious and loud sessions of laugh, which is always a nice thing. Our final stop was movie theater. It was clear from the beginning – this is a movie for women.  Cinema was full of girls of all ages. We armed ourselves with snacks and drink like we are preparing for a hurricane. Of course, we ate everything. Ironically women’s restroom was out of order, so we needed to go to the men’s. But as I said, there were no men last night in the movie – am I writing too many details here?

For me, the movie was better than I expected. It wasn’t over the top girly and romantic, but it had just the right amount of these elements in it. It allowed us to daydream and fulfill our fantasies about our perfect guy aka. (in my case) Mr. Darcy of course. Ant the most important thing, it was very funny. I’m very picky and critical about humor in movies, but this surely made me laugh couple of times. It had some very predictable scenes and that were the only flaws. I won’t write about details, the movie is still very new. Let me just say, that my predictions about who’s the father of Bridget’s baby very right. The movie ends in that ˝unfinished˝ way. So I strongly believe there will be a sequel.
