Sex and The City: The Movie

I went to watch the Sex and The City Movie last night and I have to say it was Fabulous!!!!!!. It was opening night and two and a half hours long but it did not seem that long. The cinema was full last night and it seemed to be three catergories of people, there were the girls watching with their friends, the gay men, and couples (you could see the look on the men's faces that they really did not want to be there!!!!)

There was a guy walking round selling packets of sweets, and if you bought one, you got a free Sex and the City cloth bag. I don't think he even made it into the cinema as he got bombarded just as he left the shop. I am not sure if this was an opening night promotion or they will be giving these with every purchase while the film is running. There has been loads of hype about the film, and a couple of weeks ago, I had read in a downmarket magazine that one of the girls dies!!!!! I am happy to report that is rubbish, they were all very much alive when the credits rolled at the end of the film!!

You can watch the trailer below...

You do not had to have watched the series, but it definitely helps as the film takes place three years after Big (or John as we now know him!!!!) rescued Carrie from her slap in Paris!!!!! There are references to things that have happened in the last series and you need to at least have an idea of the history of the girls. It is very well written and there are a few twists, near the beginning just when it is getting to be predictable something happens to throw a spanner in the works!!!!. There are also a few surprises and the usual plug of fashion brands such as Louis Vuitton, Manolo Blahnik, Gucci and a huge plug for Vivienne Westwood.!!!!!!

The film takes place over a period of about five months as it follows the girls lives, there are a few of the old guys including the gorgeous Smith Jerrod, Mr Big, the adorable Stamford Blatch and Anthony (the wedding designer!!!!) I would love Stamford or Anthony as my GBF (gay best friend!!!!) as they are fabulous!!!! There are others in it, but these are my personal favourites!!!!

Regardless of what the media have said about the bitching and back stabbing between the girls, they are great together on camera and this film definilety needs all four of them as they bounce off each other and after all it would not be Sex and the City without all of them as they are all so different and each bring their own individuality to the film.

I would abso-**!*-lutely recommend this film if you are a Sex and the City Fan and hopefully in the future there will be another one, as I am thirsty for the next installment!!!!
