Summary: Low on laughs
Comment: I was so excited when the film came to DVD, having not had a chance to see it at the cinema. I pre-ordered it, sent the hubby out, put the baby to bed, and settled back to enjoy. But what a disappointment! Why aren't my favourite girls happy? Samantha miserable in LA, Miranda back to her cynical and stroppy worst, Carrie a materialistic drama queen, and Charlotte - did she even have a storyline? Even her pregnancy announcement was muted, after so long trying. It's like the writer couldn't think what to do with her character, as she was the only happy one, and the only memorable moment for her was pooing her pants! I don't think I would have bothered signing back up for that! And the bit with Big in the car as he leaves Carrie waiting to get married - the acting is terrible! I cringe just thinking about it. He doesn't sound at all believeable. I also agree with other reviewers about the extras - so not work the extra £5!

Summary: Quite disappointing
Comment: I've been a fan of the series since it began and was really looking forward to the film. How disappointed was I, the series finished with happy endings but the film drags out gloomy storylines which take up most of the film meaning it's fairly depressing to watch and the adult humour is barely there, also the whole thing comes across a bit cheesey, especially some of the acting. The ending is very predictable and I was let down by the writers and felt like the whole thing was pretty pointless, i'm hoping a sequel is not on the cards!

Summary: 2 disc special edition - Sex and the City
Comment: I pre-ordered the 2 disc special edition from Amazon and as promised it was delievered slap bang on my doorstep on its official release date. Well done Amazon. Anyhow saw the film at the pics, fantastic. Decided to buy this edition and boy what a waste of money. Stick to the normal edition. I thought there would be loads of interviews with the cast but there was just one with SJP and the writer Michael King. A look at the wardrobe dept. and a commentary on deleted scenes. Nothing too much to interest you there. If you are a big fan though you would probably invest in this edition but otherwise save your cash, buy the 1 disc DVD and purchase the soundtrack of the album (which is awesome) with the money you have saved.

Summary: Can't hold a candle to the series
Comment: What happened to Carrie and her cool friends? All the personal growth, the intellect, the warmth and the realness of the series has been traded in for shrill superficiality and blatant materialism. Suddenly, Carrie and her friends come across like 16-year old mall rats trapped in the bodies of fortysomething women. All they do is shop, talk about shopping, and whine about men. This is NOT what made the tv series so enjoyable! It is like a very weak version of five seasons of SATC, where nobody seems to have learned from life's experiences. Had the series been any less brilliant, this would have been an okay movie (long in the tooth and predicatble from A to B though...) But following the marvellously witty and original series, the movies seems cheap, derivative and really only to have been made to cash in quickly. What a shame.

Summary: What I was waiting for
Comment: It was wonderful to see the girls finally on the big screen after 4 long years. The film contains excitment,sadness and a couple of laughs.
If your a die hard like me, you will not be disappointed.

As light and frothy as the Vivienne Westwood wedding gown that's an unofficial fifth star, the film version of Sex and the City is both captivatingly stylish and sweetly sentimental. Viewers who loved hanging with Carrie Bradshaw and her three pals during the series' TV run will feel as though no time has passed. Except that it has: Carrie and Big are poised to make a Big Commitment; Miranda and Steve are facing the breakup of their wonderful family; Charlotte and Harry have added to their brood; and Samantha (are we sitting down?) has been devoted to hunky Smith for five full years. Still, in all that time, the women's style, conviviality, and appetite for bons mots have only grown. When practical attorney Miranda learns that Carrie is considering moving in with Big (in possibly the coolest apartment in Manhattan), she can't help but frown in that but-you-might-lose-everything way. Carrie's retort: "For once, can't you feel what I want you to feel--jealous?!" The cast is spot-on, as always. Sarah Jessica Parker is effortless as the angst-ridden yet practical, stylish yet vulnerable Carrie. Kim Cattrall is deliciously decadent as Samantha, but she's wiser now and knows herself and her needs for a real relationship. Kristin Davis, as Charlotte, has quietly become the most gorgeous among the beauties, her sleek presence both winsome and sophisticated. And Cynthia Nixon (Miranda) shows nuance as a woman torn between betrayal and grudging hope. Supporting roles include Candice Bergen as the Vogue editor who anoints Carrie "The Last Single Girl in New York," and Jennifer Hudson, as a starry-eyed, ambitious romantic who represents the new generation of SATC women. Through it all, New York is a benevolent cocoon that envelopes and nurtures the women and their friendships and careers. No matter that none of them appears to have any semblance of "real" family; as long as they have each other, and Manhattan, all will be right with their world. --A.T. Hurley
