Carrie Bradshaw, successful author and everyone's favourite fashion icon next door is back with her friends to manage men, motherhood and Manhattan real estate.
I really think that this film is brilliant, it's one of those that you don't have to think too hard about, you can just lie back and enjoy it, with some chocolate or ice cream haha. People who take it too seriously, are silly, why not just take the film for what it is, some light-hearted fun. The characters are just as fun as the tv series, the story line is strong, and the film changes direction half way through. I don't think its too long, its just perfect to tell the story how it should be told, and its hilarious. The tv series was AMAZING, and this film is such a good follow up to keep you in touch with those classic characters you first fell in love with, Get Carried Away!
Well I watched all the series and enjoyed them (ish) My girlfriend and I made a compromise, I watch SATC and she watched Battlestar Gallactica. I was happy when it was over and luckily didn't have to go the cinema to watch this. However the other night I bit the bullet and rented this as a surprise.
This is what I thought. First off there was no need to make this movie. The series ended with nothing left to be told. It does come across as a bit of a cash in, but that is Hollywood sometimes! There are some funny moments in the film and I can see why females will appreciate the movie. The film centres round SJP and her wedding to 'BIG'. Within the first hour the predictable happened and it became slighltly entertaining when the girls went on holiday. All the characters are here and all have their time in the spotlight. My biggest disapointment was the lack of Samantha time and the lack of 'funny' antics in the bedroom. This always entertained me in the series as it was so ludicrous but was amusing. Another gripe is the running time. It is 2.5hrs long and drags in the last third of the movie. I would not buy this and wouldnt really care if i saw it again. However it is not as bad as I thought it would have been so the husbands and boyfiends out there, suck it up and you might even crack a smile whilst watching it.
Sex and the City: the movie picks up four years after the last episode of the celebrated television series ended, with the lives of the characters we know so well changing vastly in this time. Charlotte and Harry have managed to adopt Lily, a chinese orphan. Samantha and Smith are living an enviable life in Los Angeles, Miranda, Steve and Brady are playing happy families out in Brooklyn, and Carrie and Big are back together following on from the events of An American Girl in Paris (part une and deux). However, events of the film do not play out as expected, and to fans of the series, the emotional scenes are hard hitting, showing a previously unexplored dimension to the characters that we already know and love.
Sex and the City has always been as much about the fashion as the sex, and the film showcases designs from Vivienne Westwood, Zac Posen, Oscar de la Renta, Christian Dior, Gucci, and of course Patricia Field herself. Montages over the course of the film show bridal couture, and fashion best left forgotten, and any fan of fashion will want to see the dvd more than once just so that they can gape at the outfits once more.
To any fan of the series, the movie provides much of the same. The characters experience emotional growth, we're introduced to new characters, and as they move on through their lives, we see how even as they age, they will still be fifty and fabulous. For anyone not familiar with the series, a catch up provided at the start of the film allows the casual viewer to understand what's going on - and by the end of the film, you may want to go back and watch the series from the start. Whilst the Sex and the City movie sequel has not been officially confirmed, Sex and the City the movie provides a continuation of a story the fans never expected. If you're a fan of the series, the movie is something not to be missed. You'll either love it, or hate it, but no matter how you feel about it, there's no denying that it is 100% sex and the city - from the sex, to the shoes, and finally, to the city.
After mourning the loss of the television series a few years back I was looking forward to the film, and it didn't disappoint. These girls are fierce as are the outfits and one amazing Vivienne Westwood wedding dress what a sight. After hearing all sorts in the press of a disappointing ending to the film ie someone dies I can assure you they do not and like most slushy films of this kind we get our happy ending, Mr Big and Carrie live happily ever after or they do until the next installment at least.

Big screen spin-off from the television series about the sex lives of four designer label-clad New York girlfriends. It seems that Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) has finally hooked Mr. Big (Chris Noth) for good. The happy couple have moved into the swankiest apartment they could find and they're about to tie the knot. Meanwhile, Charlotte (Kristin Davis) is still unsuccessfully hankering after a baby, Samantha (Kim Catrall) is deeply dissatisfied with long-term monogamy, and Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is less-than-happy with her husband Steve (David Eigenberg) after he admits to having cheated on her. In fact when the mightily-miffed Miranda bumps into Mr. Big at the wedding rehearsal, she tells him that he's crazy to get married as it ruins everything. Unfortunately for Carrie, this angry remark leads Big to do some serious re-thinking...
