Review: 'Sex and the City' - Los Angeles Times

As anyone seen it yet..is it a two thumbs up or avoid like the plague category?

It's just gonna be some more feminists eurocentric crap that many 'black' woman will buy into thinking that kind of lifestyle applies to them.

Yep, no need to ask, just another breeze to fill the gap between the ears, more hype for sheep.

Excuse me Prince/incognito..This thread is in the WOMENS section and the QUESTION clearly states WOMEN..nOT men..so buzz off okaay!!!

I saw it yesterday, you have to be a die hard fan to enjoy it. I loved it!

Hey k - guess that explains why only you could ask it....buzzing off neatly

I will be monitoring though to see if everyone is as honest as salsaqueen...man I'm really beginning to understand this whole woman thing LOL.

can you expand on the film, give a review maybe?

I am awful at giving reviews as I end up giving things away, but for you I'll try.

As you know the series ended with everyone getting their dream. Carrie got Big, Charlotte got her adopted baby, Miranda got her home in Brooklyn with her family and Samantha got Smith. What happens after the happy ever after?

3 years later, you get to see them and how they are living their lives. There are ups and downs, someone has an affair, someone decides to get married, someone breaks up and someone gets pregnant. A friendship is also tested. The theme of this movie is forgiveness. For me it was a perfect end, a lot of people have critiqued it, but if you have watched all six seasons, you know it could not have ended another way.

I liked it because it was a lot more real than the ending the series had, they had problems that some couples do go through, but the wit (Charlotte was fab in this film, and Samantha had some great 1 liners too) is still there. It's nice you get to see what Big is thinking this time rather than just Carrie. The narration isn't there though, I did miss that. Jennifer Hudson was alright, but to be honest it would've been nice to see the 4 main characters on the screen more together. I can understand why they didn't though, they needed to show development of each character. I saw it in Leicester Square and it was really noisy, I'm going to see it again next week when the hype has settled and really listen to the movie. I really love SATC, for me it's the friendship aspect. I cried 4 times in this movie, and 2 of them was about the strength of their friendship. There really is nothing like a good friend.

I hope that is good enough? I haven't said more than you'd see in the trailer.

I saw it on Wednesday,I was a fan of the series for many reasons..which I can get into later if you like.

Anyway for the first half hour of the movie I was like"Oh God i'm gonna phucking hate this"! Coz there was too much product placement,too much fashionista bizznizz gwaanin plus I felt like the movie was being pitched towards the gaylord contingent.

However,after all that nonsense passed there was some real meat in the flick,funny moments,poignant,heartfelt etc,etc..........there was one thing Kim Catrell -who plays Samantha did in this flick and it literally lasted a nano-second but she conveyed so much in that one moment for me I have to give her props coz the girl does have some proper acting chops.

Overall I enjoyed it,J-Hud was alright,the rest of the ensemble pretty good,Sarah Jessica is looking more and equine as the years pass,but hey at least she hasnt mashed up her face with plastic surgery to try to conform.


Just as aside,I lived for 2 years on the street where they actually film "Carries"apartment.In the show she is meant to live on the upper east side of Manhattan or something..........anyway,her stoop is actually located in Greenwich Village.

I went on an organised Sex and the city night with about 40 ladies all dressed in the style of their favourite character.... 90% loved the movie, the other 10% weren't a fan of the series so didn't quite get it as much as the rest.

I LOVED IT. A definite add to my DVD collection.

My whupped ass got dragged to see it over the weekend....

ROTF..........
