Is Sex & the City 2 really that bad?

Now I feel like I’m about 3746 years late in reviewing this. But actually, Sex & the City is something very near to my heart.

You see, the reason for this is because my 3 girlfriends and I are so similar to the four main characters in Sex & the City, it’s almost like someone stepped into our lives and based them on us. (Click here if you want a more detailed explanation.)


So in short, watching a new clip of Sex & the City is almost like watching our own lives play out in front of us, so you should know that I’m a little biased when I say I actually really loved this movie.

Of course, the actresses are looking a little worse for wear, but they are definitely ageing gracefully. Kim Cattrall, who plays Samantha, is clearly the oldest of the group – her laughter lines stand out more than any of the others.

But what I love is no matter the age, the 4 women don’t stop.


With the sex being just as good as the series and the fashion being even better, this sequel is actually a little bit awesome if you ask me.

My favourite scenes include a drunken conversation between Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) & Charlotte (Kristen Davis), in which they humorously discuss the woes of Motherhood.

Things aren’t all plain and simple for Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) either. When the 4 friends visit Abu-Dhabi, she runs into an ex, sending her whole life spinning in the wrong direction. But what happens? I’ll let you see it first.

Well actually, I’d recommend this movie; something which other reviewers have been reluctant to do. In fact, I’ll recommend the movie to all girly girls, and some boyish girls, who can relate to the dramas of these girls. Any woman who looks at this movie with disgust appears to me to be extremely un-feminist and any man? Well, they’re just men really. I wouldn’t expect them to even half understand.

So, 2 different ratings.

For Women: 9 out of 10.

For Men: 3 out of 10.
