UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
muons As a person who heard a lot about it but never watched the series, I came across this chick flick on HBO and stuck to the end. It's a bit funny, fluffy and totally predictable. The characters are depicted somewhat one dimensional. The main story line, i.e. boy stands up the girl on the altar has been played on infinitely many times in the cinema industry but it still sells...
Danii Disaster I saw the movie when it first came out, and thought it was great. Now, however, having re-watched it, I see many a flaw.First of all, Carrie, who has always been a bit of a drama queen and is a life-long over-reactor, is worse than ever in this movie. She is also more selfish than ever. To be honest, I really don't blame Big for not wanting to marry her. To top it off, she blames Miranda for "ruining her marriage". The cheek! The way she goes on and on for months like it's the end of the world... it's pathetic.And they could've come up with something other than "baby, turn around, let me see you" - that was corny as hell and made Big look like a big crybaby.I see that a lot of people have a problem with Jennifer Hudson's performance... Weird, because I didn't see anything wrong with it. If anything, to me, she was the most "normal" (as in "natural") person in the movie. It's one thing that her lines were somewhat lame, but there was nothing wrong with her acting.I have always had issues with that Italian gay dude (Charlotte's wedding planner turned BFF). What an obnoxious f***wit; not to mention one of the lousiest actors ever. That guy was annoying in the sitcom, and totally crossed the line in this movie. I'm sure the movie would've actually been much better without his presence.Miranda and Steve... urgh, when did Miranda become so moody, illogical, and emotional? We already have one drama queen (Carrie); there was no need to turn Miranda into one.Charlotte, my least favourite character, was worse than ever here. Kristin Davis's over-acting has been hard to endure throughout the series, but now she's really crossed the line. She was beyond annoying in this movie. Her character is supposed to be cute, funny, and somewhat naive, but, sadly, Kristin Davis totally fails to capture the essence of Charlotte and end up being nothing more than just utterly annoying. It's no wonder she's friends with that obnoxious Italian dwarf - they're both equally bad (at pretty much everything, including acting). And it doesn't help that she drags that Mandarin kid everywhere she goes; I was surprised she didn't pack her to Mexico. Annoying, annoying, annoying. Everything about Charlotte was annoying in this movie.Samantha was the only one I wasn't disappointed with, although I didn't "get" the weight-gain sub-plot. I didn't see any extra weight on her at all, and I thought the way the girls were mocking her for this supposed weight-gain was totally ridiculous. She was fabulous, as always.All in all, not a bad movie, but a lot of things were overly exaggerated and over-dramatized, which just made the characters' annoying traits appear worse than they were supposed to be.
PinkLadee OK, I'm a little late to the party - I went to see it when it first came out, I was so excited! But here we are 8 years later, and now I cringe. Between the insulting fat jokes, Miranda turning to a block of ice, Charlotte skipping around like everything is so rosy - ugh. Carrie I was OK with - I probably would have reacted worse if that had happened to me.But what REALLY got me is how they made Big into a big, whining cry- baby. "Turn around, baby, let me see your face...." "I NEED to talk to you..." "It's just you and me, right?" COME ON!!!! For me anyway, part of his charm was that extreme confidence he exuded! Now, he's a big boo-baby. Don't even start me on SATC 2!!!
miriacs68 CONTAINS SPOILERSI just watched this again on late night TV and again the questions were popping into my head after the first time I saw it. Having been a SATC fan of the series - there was a belief this movie would bring about the questions all of us had wondered when the series finished. Did the producers answer them? Apart from cashing in on the franchise some 4 years down the track, this was the opportunity to see if our favourite characters could " live happily ever after". Samantha: She was by far my favourite, ballsy, no nonsense and not afraid to be a woman, even when the writers gave her cancer to beat, she hit it head long in the guts and then unthinkably found "love". It was the typical "fish out of water " routine, but suited Sam's character, they seemed to get that right as she plummets head long into guilt and not feeling comfortable with the whole idea. The movie gave us the right direction for the character.Miranda: I always wanted to punch her in the face during the series, we were given some insight into her background via her mother dying and it then gave the clue that she had huge self esteem issues, not always relying on the fact that she was allowed to be happy. This was taken a step further when Steve cheated on her in the movie and the inevitable happened. You couldn't condone Steve, but you always had to feel sorry for the guy as he valiantly sidestepped a very angry woman who could not love herself. In the movie she learnt the most valuable of lessons, it was completed. Charlotte: The little princess and during the series she learnt that not everything has to be perfection, aka her husband to be happy in life. In the movie, she seemed to be a caricature of herself and it was unsettling as if she was just a prop to be dragged out when they needed a bit of comedic relief. Sadly, the only thing they could drag up to complete her already perfect existence was a baby of her own... her character was completed wasted by the producers.Carrie: I always loathed her character, because even though we understood she had abandonment issues via her father, the only clue we were given during the series, she NEVER learnt anything. All the others evolved, Carrie did not and sadly when it came to the movie she again had no clue about anyone else but herself, it was ME ME ME and to heck with everyone else. Bringing in her secretary to teach her about love and forgiveness, just never sat right through that movie, when the women she had surrounded herself with for 20 years seemingly gave her no clue. Watch the movie to wrap up your curiosity but don't ask it to be anything else but light fluffy entertainment. The producers had ample opportunity to bring something special to the screens and let all the fans of the series down.
