I've been avoiding this thing since it came out, based on a slew of negative reviews. It's supposedly offensive, they said. It's insulting. It's insensitive. It's **GET OVER YOURSELVES**! Please! These are the same four good-time, sleep around like you're a man, careerist girls we knew from the series. Here they're having a bit of trouble adapting to married life and their careers during the recession, and when Samantha bags herself and her pals an all-expense paid luxury trip to the Middle East, the foursome goes for it. With predictably hilarious - and occasionally revealing - results. Yes, two of the four (Carrie, Samantha) aren't exactly a good cultural match for the Middle East and yeah, Carrie is kind of a neurotic brat. This is surprising how? And yeah it's terribly offensive to traditional values. Good! As the film rightly highlights, the "new" Middle East means more freedom for men, but not any more freedom for women - in that way it's not entirely different from the situation Miranda found herself in at the office. The film also highlights the awesome power gap between the haves and the have nots in the Middle East (many of them exploited guest workers), something which obviously makes Carrie uncomfortable (and which she does something about, near the end). So far from being this entirely vapid glitz fest, the movie actually has quite a lot to say about the state of the world. It's also reasonably funny - funnier than the first film, in fact - if not as consistently amusing as the average episode of the series. There are a few nits to pick. Liza Minnelli is almost painful to watch, poor thing. It's awkward. And after spending a good chunk of the start of the film with Stanford and Anthony, they bizarrely vanish apart from a tiny appearance near the end. We do catch up briefly with Magda - and Harry - but they barely have any lines. We do get a brief cameo from the tedious Aiden - I'd rather she ran into Berger in Abu Dhabi. He was messed up, but at least he didn't make my skin crawl. There's plenty of fashion on display, and as usual it's a mixed bag, especially where Carrie's outfits are concerned. There are hits and misses, but it's funny to see her still trying. Some of the hair and makeup choices for the gals are downright questionable, though. Kim Cattrall has certainly looked better in the hair department. Much better. Did she piss off the hairdresser or something? And Sarah Jessica Parker's hair and makeup are seriously off throughout most of the film. The movie jokes about a particular dress being "too young" for Samantha, but Parker's hairstyle is the real offender in that department, and it seems as though they're slapping pounds of makeup on her to compensate for it. In a couple of scenes she actually looks bruised. Kristin Davis is a natural beauty as always, and in spite of being in her mid-40's when the film was made, she can comfortably pass for late 30's, which is good because Charlotte is still rendered as pretty immature (although she can be more of an adult when push comes to shove than Carrie . . . or Samantha, for that matter). Cynthia Nixon looks the same as ever, which is impressive given that she'd just gone thru treatment for breast cancer. In fact Miranda has gone from angry and morose in the first film to kind of sweet and geeky here. It's actually one of the more heartening themes of the film. And where did they get the kid to play Brady? He's the perfect combo of Miranda and Steve - I busted up laughing when I saw him. One of the funniest gags in the film! Anyhow, one English critic said he couldn't think of anything civilization had made that was "more poisonous, more repugnant, more repulsive, more retrograde, more depressing than Sex and the City 2." Well, I can think of one thing right off the bat - his idiotic review. He needs to get out more often, or maybe just turn on the news from the comfort of his own couch. A sane individual could find about a hundred things more retrograde and depressing, in about an hour. Fans of the original show should find plenty to enjoy here. First world pearl clutchers should find some more worthy target for their offense, like female genital mutilation.

As with the first Sex and the City film, Sex and the City II is more or less "review-proof." The films are made for fans that are already well-immersed in the characters from the TV series, and these fans are just as interested in seeing what everyone is up to and what they're wearing as they are in a coherent plot or deeper meanings. For fans of SATC, more is more. So I guess this makes SATC2 a big success. It's nearly two and a half hours long. It features more costume changes than ever, and it takes its decadence to a whole new level. Yet the franchise is starting to feel forced and flaccid. Seeing SATC2 was like visiting a favorite old restaurant and realizing that the dish you used to love just isn't quite the same anymore. The ingredients are all there, but they haven't been prepared quite right or with any loving attention. Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) is still married to "Big" (Chris Noth), and it's been about 2 years. He wants to start settling in to a quieter, domestic life (he enjoys cuddling on the sofa watching old B&W movies) but she wants to continue to lead an active, late-night social life. She throws the equivalent of a hissy-fit, and poor Big just can't seem to do anything to make her happy. For the first time, Big is more sympathetic than whinny Carrie. Carrie has always been a difficult character to like, because even though she is big-hearted and witty and sparkly...she's also always been the most damagingly selfish girl of the bunch. Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is having trouble being appreciated at work. Charlotte (Kristen Davis) is feeling overwhelmed by a particularly terrible two-year-old, and threatened by a particularly buxom nanny. Samantha (Kim Cattrall) is grappling with menopause. So when the opportunity arises for "the girls" to get away from it all for a bit by taking a trip to Abu Dhabi (all expenses paid at a luxury resort that makes any luxury suite we've ever seen in a Las Vegas movie look like a dump)...off they go in a swirl of silk and cotton. Minor complications ensue as each works out their issues while wearing some ridiculous costumes. (I think it must be a law now that Miranda cannot be allowed to wear anything even remotely flattering.) Time for disclosure. I'm a 46 year old man...not exactly the normal target audience. But my wife and I watched the series together...and to be honest, I've always enjoyed it. While it's hardly my favorite show of all time, I didn't have to have my arm twisted to see the films either. So perhaps my reactions are skewed. But I get the appeal of SATC. I've enjoyed the sharp writing, the interesting characters and the feeling of NYC being a true character too. So, how did SATC2 fall short? First of all, sending them to Abu Dhabi absolutely felt more than a little like the series was "jumping the shark." Although many amusing things happen, it's as though "The City" held no more inspiration for the filmmakers. In the first film, the girls escape to Mexico...but it feels wrong. They are having a difficult time and being away from the city adds to that sense of dis-ease...and makes those scenes successful. Going to the desert feels a little like the season when Lucy Ricardo and company went to Europe...a transparent effort to keep up the ante. Heck, SATC2 even has a major wedding scene that takes place in Connecticut. Also, Carrie is more annoying than usual. Can't she see how perplexed and hurt she has left Big? Charlotte's problems seem quite petty (her two-year-old cries all the time like an infant...those aren't the terrible twos...if my two year old carried on that way, I'd take her to the hospital)...and they feel like they were written by a man who doesn't understand domesticity and child-rearing. The best they could come up with was a sexy Irish nanny who doesn't wear a bra and making Charlotte fearful that her husband would stray. Like anyone who knows the show believes Harry would do that! Miranda quits her job...and that's about it. Never has she been given a more minor role than in this film. She is hardly one-quarter of the action...perhaps one-tenth. And Samantha's antics seem more desperate. And that sort of sums up the film. These actresses...all lovely...are now being asked to act and behave much younger than they are. And the cracks show. It's not just that the layers of pancake makeup can't hide the lines around Parker's eyes...it's that there is simply no way that women with the experiences these four have had would act in the ways they do. They've always been outrageous, yes. But they now frequently lean towards being cartoonish. The series now feels caught in another generation. To me, the best example comes early on. Everyone is attending a gay wedding, and guess who performs the civil ceremony? Liza Minelli! That's fairly random, but worth a laugh. Later, she performs (and we're asked to believe that she would do this) at the reception, by singing and dancing Single Ladies for Beyonce...replicating the signature choreography from the video. Too bad this joke has already been thoroughly played out...the football players on Glee already did it. The female chipmunks in the latest Alvin and the Chipmunks film did it. And even Beyonce herself spoofed it with the male members of Saturday Night Live. So including this bit in the film feels like a grab for hipness by a filmmaker caught in the `90s but trying to seem "up on what the kids are doing these days." In the end, I think the film simply doesn't speak to anything real anymore. I'd still go see another sequel, because I have enough goodwill for the original series...but they'd better step up their game and refocus on what really makes the series work on more than a superficial level. Because with SATC2, "superficial" was all we got.

I don't think I can give a review better than the one by "Concerned Citizen" as I believe it was right-on. I really enjoyed this movie both times I watched it. The fashion was fun and beautiful, the hotel and scenery in Abu Dhabi was amazing and the wedding was just so funny. I can't believe some of the things people are saying in their critical reviews. Geez, where do I begin? I've lived in 5 different areas in the U.S. and traveled all over it and think this movie hits the mark on so many aspects. Yes, it was possible for Carrie to run into an ex in a random place. I was once on a 3 day trip to Montreal years ago and ran into a guy I had just dated the year before. And yes, it is possible for a woman to struggle adapting to a new marriage and have some confusion over an ex. Some woman commented on Big getting Carrie a ring. I've seen guys do all sorts of things when they thought they might lose their wife or girlfriend. And yes, Samantha is struggling with getting older - Hello! - I know MANY women that are in their 50's doing similar things. As for how they portrayed Abu Dhabi, or the women that live there - it was a movie, not a documentary. Women do wear the abaya there. And come on, the bra-less nanny was a hoot. It was a more theatrical way of showing how it can be so challenging and exhausting to be a mother and you want that nanny so badly you ignore something like that. That's what movies do, they exaggerate sometimes to make a point or for entertainment purposes. Come on women (or men) - does "Sex and the City" have to be an accurate portrayal of real women's lives for you to enjoy and appreciate the movie? Some people reviewed this movie like these characters are real people that need to set an example for women and they are disappointed by their actions or like it was supposed to be an accurate adaptation of some classic or something. Lighten up people, it is entertainment. Were a few parts of the movie a bit uncomfortable or maybe "been there, done that," of course. I can realistically see ratings from 3 to 5. The ratings of ones and twos and the harsh reviews most likely come from people that either have less contact and experience with a wide variety of people or seem to be the ramblings from those who are frustrated or somewhat unhappy. The reality is happy, easy-going people are less critical. "Critical people are unhappy people. They are always looking for what is wrong, for the fly in the soup, for someone to blame, they never enjoy the good things." (quote from some psychology article I read). And the statistics of women in this country that are unhappy with their bodies, lives, marriages, etc, etc. seem correlate in some ways to the ratings for this movie. The fashion, scenery, song they sang and all the funny scenes should more than balance out some of the weaker areas that some couldn't overlook. The girls tackle their new issues in their fabulously glitzy way while having a fun adventure out of the city. Loved it.

"Sex and the City 2", just like its predecessor, is one end-less commercial for haute-couture and the kind of lifestyle to be found in the "Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous". The wealth and materialism exhibited and glorified is nauseating really. So nauseating in fact that you cannot possibly take it seriously. The girls are obscenely wealthy, have equally obscenely wealthy life styles and there is not one person in this movie who is real. It seems like in the world of Sex and the City, there are no ordinary people - everyone is a page out of "Vogue" magazine. Carrie has exactly what she wanted with Big, who somehow lost his spunk ever since he confessed his loyalty to her at the end of the series. He is docile and quiet and acts like a neutered, obedient pet who just nods agreeably every time. It is kind of pathetic actually. Carrie herself has not accomplished anything really. All she seems to have been doing over the years is shopping and going to movie premieres and high-society parties. Charlotte is the same spoiled brat who makes cookies in vintage Valentino skirts and can always find something to whine about - even when she both objectively and subjectively got everything most people could only dream of. Miranda has lost a lot of her edge and cynicism, which made her interesting and endearing and instead she has turned into Charlotte. Urgh. The only one who hasnt changed and still has the morals of a pornstar after a 600 man gangbang, is Samantha. But she too is annoying at best and has turned into a caricature of herself, juts like all of the characters. None of the thoughtfulness, wit, and vulnerability we got to know and love all these years. It seems like the writers just picked a few themes (like fashion, shoes, the extravagant life-stlye, the man-chasing etc) and blew them up into gigantic circus-sized objects and written a story around them. Everything and everyone is faker than the silicon and Botox drowning Hollywood. Sex and the City was always a champion for the single gals, the power of single, successful women who know what they want and are not willing to compromise it so they fit under some label. Yet in what has become the conclusion to their stories, they all got a man (except for the one who never wanted one) - and did what they had to to finally fit under the label; which basically tells me that all the talk about not needing a man and being an independent woman was just that: talk until the waiting period is over and they all have a man, so that life and happiness can finally begin. Yipeee... That being said, I must admit I dont understand people who dump on this movie, somehow expecting depth, a plot and character development. Come on. This movie is about materialism and the best clothes, friends, houses, china and vacation spots a man's cold hard cash can buy. That's what it's always been about. Even the writers admit that no real-life person could afford Carrie Bradshaw's lifestyle and couture choices. Four dollars a word in a 250 word column and shopping Manolo Blahnik's at 600 a pop every week? Come on. They never made a secret of that. Michael Patrick King in the DVD commentary for Season 4 said they often show close-up shots of the shoes because they know that's what the audience wants to see - straight or queer. So give me a break and stop trying to make of this movie what it isn't. I watch it for the sheer aesthetic pleasure of it all and so should anyone else. It is entertaining, like a live fashion show in Milan and as a fashion aficionado myself, I was delighted with the fashions, styles and coutures presented. If you expect some awesome movie with an actual story and believable characters, or a message even, then skip this one. The audience for this movie are funky women who love fashion and gay men who love watching these funky women sport these fashions. This movie is not social commentary of any kind or is about anything really. Its superficiality and materialism, the main protagonists of this movie, are hidden under nothing but a thin veneer of fake and misplaced emotional struggles by a bunch of narcissistic, supremely fake, vain and vacuous individuals.

Seeing the ladies together on a faraway, exotic adventure brought me straight back to the days of the series with a fresh upgrade in fashion and evolution and advancement in life. The hotel was breathtaking and the clothes, jewelry, shoes, hair...oh my! The whole point about this movie is that no matter what changes we go through in life or cultural boundaries we cross, we women stick together. Now the part that grated on my nerves so much that I almost gave only two stars: NARRATION The ceaseless, mindnumbing narration of minutia tumbles over the dialogue at some very key moments when characters are making jokes, jokes I don't want to miss. Other times, the commentary is so superfluous it provokes a needless undercurrent of anxiety, like having a neighbor next to you talk throughout a movie. You can't relax. So, scrap the narration. Unless it's germane to the understanding of the movie or describes something we want to know (like the designer brand of a piece of clothing in a movie solely about fashion), let it go. Please! So I can watch it again.
