DVD Reviews of Sex and the City - The Movie (Special Edition)

DVD Review: awesome
Summary: 5 Stars

So I don't have the special edition(but hope to soon)...but I just watched this movie twice in a 24 hour period, once normally and once with M. P. King's commentary. And I've NEVER watched a movie with the commentary playing, especially not one this length(SATC was longer then I expected, over 2 hours). The film is so fun. You laugh, cry, then laugh while you're crying.
The commentary is amazing. For anyone who loves this series and has seen the all the episodes(over and over and over again!), he is eloquent, funny, tells the best little movie tidbits and was a complete joy to listen to! I was exhausted and literally could not stop watching/listening! He tells interesting things about production, things in the background, actors who appeared in episodes who he just had to have back for the movie. It was a really exciting gem for any SATC fan.

DVD Review: One of the best movies this year.
Summary: 5 Stars

Why are men who were not fans and got "dragged" to see the movie by their wives even reviewing it. "I'm too macho for these types of movies!" Give me a break!

Now for those who are really interested, this movie does not let the fans down and it is one of the best movies I've seen this year. I can't wait to add it to my collection. My girlfriends and I laughed and cried and everything in between. It tugs at your emotions! Wow. I saw it 3 times, and still want more!

DVD Review: SUCKS IN THE CITY!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars

This movie was horrible. I mean it, bad writing, bad forced acting, completly predictable I was embarassed for them all. This should have been a great film but they rushed it out..anyone who liked it is blinded by the series (which was great) but I ask all don't by this DVD and support idiotic filmmaking in the US anymore. Hollywood thinks they can take a dump in a box and write special edition on it and we will buy it. This was made realitivly cheap and fast thinking who cares the public will buy it and we will get PAID on the backend...so if you want better films made dont buy the bad ones!!! I didn't even want to give it one star

DVD Review: 3 stars because it's more than 2
Summary: 3 Stars

Not wanting to be stoned by a pack of angry stiletto ninjas, I made this review on the run. After the movie I thought was a porno, I stood up and was very disappointed at the plot. Who cares about your life, was my initial reaction but than I had not noticed how loud I said it. The room was on fire with pumped up women shouting inanities about crack and heroine. I tried the pokemon method but it didn't work. Overall, I had to get out of there and this is why I give this movie only 3 stars.

DVD Review: A GREAT REUNION
Summary: 4 Stars

I own the collector's set (which is so beautifully boxed) and have watched every episode of Sex and The City, and wanted more. This movie brings the girls back, making it appear to be three additional sequels. I felt the emotional twists and turns of Carrie and Miranda, the new softness of Samantha, and who couldn't admire Charlotte (the Melanie Hamilton of Gone With The Wind)--minus Charlotte's squeals! ...although her experience in Mexico brought her to "real life" and the humor was needed.
There was less of the men, and very little of the children, but this is about a follow-up on the girls. I liked Jennifer Hudson's inclusion, as she was just what Carrie needed with her gentle voice and manner (and a great voice on the track).
The fashions were beautiful and unique as they always were (although I didn't go for the blue bird!!).
The movie (as the series) shows what true friendship is-- those you can really count on one hand. Carrie's New Year's Eve visit was evidence of how intuitive they are with each other.
You'll probably watch this more than once and if you were a fan of the Sex and the City series, you won't want to go without watching this movie. I'd simplify it by girl:

CARRIE; Forgot she was thinking only of what Carrie wanted.
MIRANDA; Still overburdened with work and family and learned the consequences.
CHARLOTTE; Ever the optimistic/ ever the "mothering" type with her hopes for her dreams to come true.
SAMANTHA Mellowed and still sexy at 50 - Still the authority the girls reach out to.

Now wouldn't it be great to those devoted fans to see these women as SENIORS??????

Description of Sex and the City - The Movie (Special Edition)

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
