Elsk meg i morgen

Oslo looks real good in this movie, the photographer gathered all good shots with the right angles and getting the not so nice bits out of focus as appropriate.

Also its a good story, you feel for poor Elling through all his lies and his 'snobbery'. When he meets a girl in a hot dog stand he likes, he lies to her to attract her interest about having been abducted by aliens while hunting in the wilderness.

The humour is 'grown up' without losing appeal for an younger audience.

Per Christian Ellefsen is very good as Elling here, I cant comment on the first film in the trilogy as I haven't seen it, but in 'Mors Elling' he came through quite annoying.

A proper sequel to the first elling after we got a prequel. Anyway, this is as quirky and fun as the first one. If you liked the humor and the characters ... enjoy them in this one too. With added characters and a love story that is ... well not normal too.

It is not for everyone obviously and I would recommend to watch the first one before even thinking about this. Other than that you are the one to decide if this is for you or not.

The original Elling film is one of my all time favourite movies, but I found the prequel Mors Elling (Mother's Elling) a bit disappointing. So I was a little apprehensive about this, the third and final film in the trilogy, but in the end I wasn't disappointed. Petter Næss, who directed the first film, but not Mors Elling, was back in the director's chair, and I think it shows.

Overall, Elsk meg i morgen (Love Me Tomorrow) is a little darker and more sombre than its predecessor, but it has a lot of subtlety and emotional weight. The acting is superb, and I would definitely recommend you watch this film if you get the opportunity. (Although you'll probably have to try to get hold of the Norwegian DVD release, which does have English subtitles.) I would though recommend that you watch the original Elling film first, as Elsk meg i morgen kind of assumes you know the main characters already. You don't need to watch Mors Elling to appreciate either of the later films though, it just provides more background.
