Sex and the City

It's good to have the girls back.

Sex and the City the Movie premiered this weekend and was filled with laughs, love, lessons of friendship, and of course, loads of fashion.

The long anticipated reunion of the HBO series that ended in 2004, stayed loyal to its fans, satisfying questions of where the four women, Carrie Bradshaw, Samantha Jones, Miranda Hobbes and Charlotte York, have been and where they are headed.

Although the film did not give as much credit to its usual fifth character, New York City, it had new settings such as Mexico and L.A. In Mexico, the girls stayed long enough to sport their resort wear and enjoy some margaritas. In one of the funniest scenes of the entire movie, the always careful Charlotte got sick from the Mexican water and could not make it to the bathroom in time. Samantha, a true New Yorker, is a little out of her element, now living in L.A., where she manages Smith Jared's career and still heads her PR Firm. She spent most of the film going back and forth between New York and her California home, debating whether it was all worth it for a monogamous relationship.

Most of the drama from the movie came from Carrie and Mr. Big's relationship, which really was no surprise since the same can be said of much of the television series. The question of whether or not the two finally get married has been on much of the devoted SATC fan's mind since the show's series finale. The answer is in this movie. Although like the entirety of their relationship it might take a while to get to, you will be happy when it finally does.

I went to see it with two of my friends, & absolutely loved this
movie. We were 3 of the only 5 people in the theatre that
afternoon [due to nice timing]. We laughed & made comments galore
all to the enojoyment of the other few people in the room. We were
pretty sure they were laughing at us [not the movie] quite a few
times.
I've never followed the series closely at all, but my brief
encounters filled me in on the bits I needed to know. I loved it.
One of the girls with me had never watched the series & loved it
too. It was a well spent 2 & a half hours in my book.
I cried too. Surprise, surprise, HRH. We disagree again ;) I
loved it.. really. But I'm a huge fan and have been waiting for
this forever. I just hope that isn't the last one.
Not to mention, Jennifer Hudson's character was pointless. Here I
findally thought they were going to introduce a women
representative of the Black Women single Women in New York, but
Louise might as well have been a figment of SJP imagination as she
was never seen anywhere else other than with SJP. She was never
introduced to the other Girls. (if they were really friends
that,at least, would have been done). And whole story seemed to
tell women that they will have to compromise who they are in order
to have a man. Vivienne Westwood and Page Six is who Carrie is...
the courthosue and a crappy vintage dress (without her girls!!!)
is not. Just the classic sacrifice who you are for your man story.
It's sucked. Unless you've really just grown to love love love the
characters you wont' like it. It's like three or four episodes
(the format) strung together and extended for two and a half
hours. If you LOVE the series, you'll love the movie. But it isn't
a decent movie in it's own right.

HRH
IT WAS ALL I EXPECTED IT TO BE.....GREAT! I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF
IT.
i love this movie!it's really really good.
wonderful movie

It was fab. It was amazing! It was just what I'd hoped plus more.
I think this was a wonderful new addition and final wrap up to the
series!
loooooooooooooved it! saw it twice!
i cried...i won't lie.

REALLY good movie...even if you're not a girly girl.
hhuhuhuh....i wacth this movie before
I loved the movie. if there is a sequal, I hope they doesn't take
another 4 years to start production.....
One of the best movies I have seen in a really long time! I can't
wait til I can own it!!!!
Loved it loved it LOVED IT. I laughed so hard, and then cried so
hard, and back and forth. It was so NOT a letdown, uncommon for
the TV-to-big screen leap.
