Sex and the City 2 (2010)

I'm really surprised that this movie even exists. Okay, it was obviously made to cash in on the popularity of "Sex And The City", but nothing happens! I was at least hoping that this movie would feature Big and Carrie having children as that would be the next big step in a relationship. They don't want to have kids and they advance practically nothing with their marriage! It seems like it was just an excuse to take the actresses on a real vacation to the United Arab Emirates. I mean, that's why Adam Sandler makes a lot of his movies.Another huge problem is that this movie is once again two and a half hours long! The story isn't complicated at all and it just goes on forever. It's just plain boring. This was completely devoid of laughs, but then again, I'm not sure if this was even supposed to be a comedy. It's a pity that this is the last installment in this franchise as I heard the show was at least good. It annoys me how these women refuse to even fly in coach. *1/2

Why was that film so slow? Every scene was like torture. Not funny. Plus the clothes were ugly.

They get what they want only to be insecure......and their spoiled...only Miranda is real, Samantha is disgusting Charlotte and Mr Big should know better..Carrie is sad and selfish.I wish they had better writers.. And watching TV is not the end of world.

As a heterosexual guy I have watch my share of romantic dramas and coming to see the movie "Sex and the City" I have to say that though I don't completely hate "Sex and the City 2", then again I never had the strong feelings going to see the movie and that I never cared much for the series. I was never invested by the four leading ladies who are constantly obsessed by consuming trendy luxury while talking the talk of sexual empowerment and scoping out a rich beau. Like the series itself and the first installment, they hoped they could swing it both ways. Sadly it was bombarded with vulgar undertones and unscrupulous exhibitions that took over the concept of a serious hidden underneath it.Two years later the sequel reunites the four girls and the vulgarity has elevated to a higher degree. This the consumer-happy quartet locates themselves from their American estates to the very gorgeous, but ultra-expensive Abu Dhabi in the UAE. And though the location was pure eye-candy with the beaches and resorts, I would have felt better watching an infomercial for two and a half hours and would never have known the difference. Just don't engage in tonsil hockey within the public spectrum and make sure that you have enough dough to tip the help generously. The plot is the same crap that materialized from the series. Lawyer Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is disgruntled by her boss who constantly dismisses her. Instead of doing the sensible thing, she just calls it quits. To her it feels like a win for woman's liberation. When really it's a cop-out. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) is now married with two children wants to get away from the stress of it all even though there's help living with them. Carries (Sarah Jessica Parker) has grown over the fact that her beau is ageing and it outraged when she discovers her book was struck with negative reviews retaliates by kissing an ex-boyfriend. Her husband's reaction is priceless. And sex kitten Samantha (Kim Cattrall) wants to ward off menopause by feeding off hormones due to the restrictions of having sex in a Muslim country.And sure the film takes largely in such heavy-handed topics like menopause and culture clashes. And sure being a mother to young children can be believably overwhelming, it still feels very hokey in my mind's perspective. Sure there's some compelling jabs about declining economy and feeling heroic of child raising alone, but the fact of staying in luxurious hotels makes these ladies hypocrites especially when Carrie tips of a Hindu servant to return home to India to be with his wife.Sure I might be jabbing on the film over the characters, but in the end I'm jabbing at both of them evenly. But if I had the money like them I still wouldn't have liked the film. It just doesn't measure up in what it preaches out to be. Even the fashion looks absurd and not trendy. The women's fashion is over-the-top and scruffy. The camera-work looks jilted and very tiresome at best. Even Liza Minelli's song number looked strange like her face and body didn't match. It was quite an unorthodox experience.
