Okay, I saw the movie with girlfriends (yay!) Sunday afternoon. We were all looking at each other like, WTF? afterwards. Here goes:
1. I liked how they glammed Miranda up. She needed it! Charlotte is always and forever my favorite. Samantha needs to learn her lesson, and almost did a few times. Carrie I always want to slap because she loves the drama too much.
2. I can't see watching this movie ever again. I want to forget it ever happened. It was a bad dream. Now, it has made me nostalgic for the series AND the First Movie.
3. The gals all looked old. SO old. Cynthia Nixon probably looked the least plastic. SJP looked the most haggard of all. The guys all looked great. I LOVE Chris Noth so I would go to a movie that involved him watching paint dry.
4. Stanny would NOT have married that annoying brat Anthony! If he was THAT desperate for a wedding, he would have married, as he said, "a chubby patient girl."
The reviews were SO tough on the movie. I DO NOT want to watch movies about the recession! I'd rather watch something like this movie, where the characters are living large and being unapologetic about it. Also, I think a lot of the review writers didn't know about the NYC reality: I'm hardly in their world and I know plenty of SAHMs who have help AND I know couples where one person has kept their pre-marriage apartment, either as an office or (in Carrie's case) because the economy tanked and it wasn't the best time to sell. I feel like the critics should have focused on the fact that the movie just wasn't well-written, instead of how it was an "unrealistic view of life in this economy." Gag me with a Louboutin.
