Sex and the City - The Movie (Widescreen Edition)

I like doing business with Amazon.com because it is a reliable source. They also offer reasonable prices. In fact, this DVD cost me nothing because I opened an Amazon credit card account and they credited my account with $30. Since the DVD, including the shipping cost, came to less than that amount, I ended up paying nothing. I will be shopping at theis site regularly.

I enjoyed this movie it much more than I was expecting. The clothes were plentiful and cool and of course they pushed in more by having Carrie have a little fashion show in her apartment and a Wedding dress bonanza. Thankfully, we didn't get that much husband/boyfriend time with the girls, other than Miranda and Steve who were fighting so that made it more interesting. I was a Big fan for a while and while I still don't hate him, I don't know if his fans will love him that much after this movie. He pulled something rediculous that I don't know I can truly forgive him for.

Longer than it needed to be, but I still still enjoyed it nevertheless.

I liked this movie, but I had never seen it on HBO so I didn't know how much sex there really was in the city. If you like the series on basic cable and you're an adult, go for it, but be prepared for some soft core porn.

Having enjoyed the television series, I was afraid, from all the hype, that the movie would be a big disappointment. Well, I couldn't have been more right. The thing that makes the TV series work is that the friendship among the women is stronger than anything else; all the superficial stuff is just icing. In the movie, the strongest thing is the massive assault of designer label product placement; it's all superficial stuff and nothing else. It's like one long, annoying commercial. And by the way, the movie is all Carrie all the time; Charlotte, Miranda, and Samantha -- far more interesting characters -- have almost nothing to do. The men are beyond an afterthought. The movie is also bizarrely, gratuitously crass. I almost walked out of the theatre. Beyond a dud, this movie is offensive to human intelligence. I hear they're making another.... yikes.

I finally watched this movie as a rental and liked it surprisingly better than I expected.

I liked it enough to buy it used from Blockbuster for $10, if that says anything...

It's long. And parts of it are a little corny, but the kind of corny that serious fans of the show will be able to overlook without a second thought. It seemed to me that a few of the actors have had some face work done. It looks tacky but when they're dressed like a million bucks, who really cares.

Girlfriends who drop their lives on a moment's notice to fly with you to Mexico don't really exist, and wouldn't we all love to live like Samantha Jones and have the freedom to jet back and forth every other weekend from LA to NYC?? But see, that's the point. You gotta watch the movie knowing it's all about fun and not much about reality.

In the end I guess that's why it's so darn satisfying...
and keeps us always wanting for more.
At the very least, my Carrie craving has been satiated for at least another two years... when they finally come out with another sequel!
