Sex and the City
Jun 2nd, 2008 by Rosemary
Wow. What a great movie.
I was a fan of the show, in all its HBO glory. I thought network TV watered the raunchy out of the series on the WB/CW a bit much.
The movie bridged the two styles well, in a story that tied into the show well while also standing on its own.
I won’t write much about the plot here — don’t want to spoil it for others.
But there is some major drama, explicit sex scenes and teary romantic moments.
(OK, teary for me.)
Loved the fact that the film’s audience looked like it was attended a red carpet premiere (especially the shoes, which were great) and that everyone applauded at the end.
Even though Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha weren’t there, they deserved the praise nonetheless.
While its great that this movie did great at the box office (the highest haul ever for an R-rated comedy) news of a sequel kind of disturbs me.
