Sex And The City. Out today. (*********9/10)
Hi, it’s Jen, Eric’s girflriend. He recruited me to do a review of Sex And The City for him, because he felt that he could not in good conscience review it himself. He is, after all, not the target audience.
The movie takes place three years after the show ended on T.V.
Charlotte and Harry have their adopted Daughter Lily, Miranda and Steve are living in Brooklyn, Samantha and Smith are living in Hollywood and of course Carrie and Mr. Big are moving in together in New York.
While Carrie and Mr. Big are looking for an apartment she calls him the boyfriend and he asks the same question that I often do.” Aren’t I a little too old to be introduced as the boyfriend?” (Or in my case, “the girlfriend?”)
I digress. They then decide to get married but it’s not a romantic proposal, it’s more like a ” Hey why not, I want to be with you so let’s do it.”
With that, the movie begins, with high fashion, wedding gowns, shoes and of course all the gratuitous sex. Lots of eye candy for the women…not so much for the men.
During the two and a half hour run time of Sex And The City, the women go through emotional rollercoasters. With Mr. Big not showing up for the wedding Carrie is heartbroken again, Steve has a one night stand on Miranda,
Samantha gains weight because she and Smith aren’t having sex, and Charlotte is now pregnant. The movie has everything - tears, laughter and of course romance. For those who loved Sex And The City it ties it up in a pretty package.
For those of you who haven’t, this movie is about friendships that we as women have with each other and our relashionships.
With the extended scences and special features on the two disc DVD, this is a Sex In The City must see. And for the men they would learn more about why women are crazy and why they love us for it. The special two-disc edition of Sex And The City comes out tomorrow, September 23rd, from Alliance Films.
