Sex And The City - The Movie DVD

Advantages: Eventually it ends
Disadvantages: A romantic comedy that's neither romantic... or funny

...recently forced to sit through Sex and the City. This should give you the gist of what I'm about to say. You may wonder why I'm bothering to review the film. After all, as a heterosexual British male in his late 20s, I'm about as far as it's possible to get from the target demographic. I'm not SUPPOSED to like the film, if you want to get right down to it. But the fact is that this meandering pile of self-indulgent toss bored me and enraged me (often ...
...foaming rant across cyberspace. Sex and the City is, for those of you who've been lucky enough to avoid it, a big screen adaptation of a TV 'comedy' about four friends in New York. The series was in turn based on the best-selling book of the same name by Candace Bushnell. It was championed in its day for the then-unusual spectacle of women talking frankly about sexual pleasure, even though the book persistently refers to male genitalia as 'unmentionables' ...

Advantages: Easy to watch
Disadvantages: Basically an extended episode

...I'd write a review on Sex And The City from a males point of view. Before any comments are made I was dragged along with my girlfriend and had no choice in the matter! She is a massive fan of Sex And The City and over the years I've been subjected to my fair share of it so while I know the characters and some of the background, there is plenty that I don't know. From what I can gather, the Sex And The City movie is set a few years after the last ...
...of as "that one off Sex And The City." There is no doubt this film is purely aimed at women! I went on the opening night and the cinema was at least 90% women. This, obviously, meant that there was a ridiculous amount of "oooohhh's" and "aaahhh's" which got quite frustrating at times. I'm a person who wishes people would just shut up in the cinema! So, as a bloke what did I think? It was ok. There is no way I'd go watch it again even though my ... Read review

Advantages: Great chick flick one for the ladies
Disadvantages: Maybe not to everyones taste

...and heartbreaking moments but as most movies there is a happy ending. Carrie has some amazing outfits and I love her black Dior shoes. As I said earlier if you like your fashion you will like the outfits. Like the series they cover all 4 of the girls lives highs and lows and relationship issues. I personally think it is a must see but tip keep tissues to hand but I will not spoil it for you all I can say is its worth seeing. I have already pre ordered the DVD on its release I believe its out in September 2008. I have read there is a possibility of a sequel to the movie possibly bringing Aiden back as they did have a scene made but editied it out. I doubt there will be a series 7.... Read review

Advantages: Get your SATC fix once more
Disadvantages: Might have been better as a few special episodes

...this movie is the strange feeling that you are watching T.V. with hundreds of your friends. Apart from the fat guy in the corner. He gate crashed. If you don't appreciate people talking, laughing, nudging or generally being alive in the cinema while you try to watch your movie, you may want to wait on this one to come out on DVD. Which it better. In saying that, I take a rifle to the cinema (in my mind) and there is usually quite a high body count by the end of even the most innocent film. In fact, the more innocent the film, the higher the body count…damn kids. HOWEVER! This film didn't bug me too much. It manages to create quite a comfy atmosphere and there's plenty time to laugh your little ass off at any funny moments without missing what they say next. 200cm3 I hit a point half way in where I started to notice how much I needed to go...

Advantages: Getting another dose of SATC and the perfect round up to the TV show
Disadvantages: None unless you don't like Sex and the city!

...I was a big fan of the sex and the city series and own all the box sets. I had always hoped there would be a 7th series or even better a movie and low and behold this year saw the much awaited release of 'Sex and the city - The movie'. Oh boy was I excited!! So off my friend and I went to see it with great expectations - both of us hoping it would be everything we wanted it to be and both also wondering if any of the things would happen that we had discussed might since we had heard they were making the film!! So what's it all about? Both the series and the film centre around 4 New York woman who have experienced living and dating in the big city. They have all had their ups and down through out the series of trying to find the right man, general life and also experiencing good or bad sex! The woman who are, Carrie, Miranda, Samantha...
