Last night I watched Sex and the City 2.
I used to watch the show. I enjoyed it and it educated me in some ways.
I saw the last movie.
Loved the wedding dress, don't really remember the movie.
I belong to Zip.ca so I get dvds regularly
and tend to request things that I would never have paid to see in the theatre.
I didn't think this movie was necessarily one of those but after watching it,
I am rethinking my stance on that.
For the first 30 minutes,
I felt embarassed.
Embarassed that I was watching such a terribly written movie.
Embarassed for the actors that they signed on to such a terribly written movie
and had to speak those lines and act so foolish
Embarassed because, as beautiful as those women look,
they look like they are past their prime.
They kind of look
ridiculous.
And I know they reference aging a lot in this one
but even so -
it all came off as kind of...
desperate.
I'm ok with the over the top fashion.
Ironically, that wasn't what I found ridiculous
(it was what I expected)
But I really hope,
for their sake,
that this is the end of the road for this concept.

i never watched the tv show (i have seen re-runs on CityTV)..but I saw both movies in the theatre (and I never go to the movies)...it was the one thing I couldn't say no to...i can't say no to the ladies...(ummm...you know what I mean)
i never got the fashion...I like her apartments ... not sure about sitting around the pool when I am >40 and chatting about...whatever...
ok i am rambling...its a movie that saying "i didn't like it" is like saying "i don't like hanging out with my girlfiends"...you know? its like something is defunct inside you if you admit what everyone was thinking:
DAMN THAT WAS GAWD AWFUL!
do you think its possible to make it good? probably, right? new writers? Maybe talented writers are just over it...
ok ok...i'd much rather watch natalie portman than sjp...or keira or gossip girl...I like to watch pretty
:) ttyl!
I'm totally with you on watching the pretty - did you watch any of Pretty Little Liars? Loved it! (Juvenile, yes, but still addictive) I'm also addicted to Gossip Girl...I know what you mean though - could the movie have been better? Maybe. I think it was the whole gay wedding stuff at the beginning that was horrible and fake...like people acting in a Christmas pageant...Ah well!
