Amazon.co.uk Review
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

Synopsis
If you’ve been yearning for all those girly chats, sassy lines, fabulous outfits and parade of Blahniks and Choos-- don't despair -- the fab four have catwalked their way into a feature film. At long last, Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha are back. They're older, wiser and wittier, but have times really changed, and importantly, will Carrie get her fairytale ending with Mr Big?

4.0 out of 5 stars SATC.....which got me to thinking, 27 Jun 2008
I've waited so so long for this to be released and will purchase the DVD straight away. I've seen it at the movies 3 times and each time I did I was all dressed up in happiness. It can be said that it may be slightly overlong for non fans but your in for a treat. To see our gals up there on the silver screen strutting there stuff is dvine. They are all icons of our time and it shows. The set pieces are fabulous and New York is the fifth gal we all love.
The storyline is very in keeping with what we know, but as always it throws up some curve balls as we know life does, no one has the perfect life and SATC always showed that and the fact that you need to get up, smile and CARRIE on regardless. Great one liners, fab shoes and clothes, laugh out loud moments and tears aplenty. It really makes you laugh, cry, smile and makes you remember to think more of your friends and loved ones. The soundtrack is also very well put together with an eclectic mix of sounds and styles, just like an outfit Carrie would mix up.
It's gonna be a fab feelgood movie we can all return to when we need some tender loving care forever more. If your ever in a Mexi-coma, you won't be for long. Sex And The City Heaven is here.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sex and the City, 3 Sep 2008
By C. MacLellan (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
On the 6 June 1998, a show called Sex and the City debuted on the male dominated cable channel HBO. But this wasn't the smutty show most would have been expecting when they tuned in. What they got was a well-written, sassy comedy-drama, by not one, not two, but four strong females. Six years, 94 episodes and an uncountable number of boyfriends later, these four New York women had changed TV, women and sex forever.

Its fours years later and we're back with New York's favourite girls. Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and her `man-friend' Big (Chris Noth) are house hunting, and more importantly, still not married; Samantha (Kim Cattrall) has relocated to LA to further the career of boyfriend Smith (Jason Lewis); Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is struggling to juggle work and family life; and Charlotte (Kristin Davis) and her family her about to receive a massive jolt.

With a whole two hours and twenty minutes of running time, writer/director Michael Patrick King should have been able to create a film which pays respect to all four characters and the actresses who portray them.
In its place, he has created a story which is completely centred on Carrie and her on-going `quirky' relationship with Big, and by the time the credits start to role, this has become complete tedium. Usually a storyline of this nature would have been given time to develop of a number of episodes, or even an entire season, of the TV series, but instead the other characters and their stories have been sacrificed to squeeze it all into the already overly-long film.

Samantha is shipped off to Los Angels, but this has very little effect over the story, as she appears to be able to pop-up, when ever she's needed in New York, at a moment's notice. However, the resolution of her storyline is probably closest to the true nature of the show.

Miranda's story could have been more intelligent, by exploring her struggle between the career that she loves and the family she loves just as much. But King decided to go for the shock factor, and in doing so, has given Miranda's husband Steve (David Eigenberg) a complete personality change, to squeeze in the storyline, with very little explanation or back-ground leading up to his change.

Charlotte, and more importantly Kristin Davis, comes off worst from the script. The news which rocks Charlotte and her family will resonate, not only with those who felt her pain during the TV series, but also to women to who have gone through the same experiences in their own life. But her story is just brushed over quickly, and Charlotte is reduced to squealing every so often and pooping her pants - yes, literally pooping her pants.

The good news is that, despite the poor quality of the story, King has managed to recapture everything that was great about the TV show. It's obvious that all four actresses had great fun reprising their role, and this comes across on screen, with the chemistry between them just as strong as it had been when the show ended in 2004.

The writing has been toned down slightly, but it's as smart and sassy as ever, with Kim Cattrall in particular, truly relishing being back in the role of Samantha. The characters have also successfully moved on from single, promiscuous girls, looking to get on the guest list at an exclusive club, to the girlfriends, wives and mothers which their time away from the screen has made them.

Although the lazy scripting won't gain Sex and the City any new fans, the shoes, the bags, and the return of Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte won't disappoint fans - but let's be honest, what would???

4.0 out of 5 stars A blokes review, 6 Jan 2009
By chuckles "barnie884" (Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
During the original years, the girl I was living with made me watch these as compensation for football. However I became hooked due to the quality and humour. With so much hype surrounding this movie, it could have all gone wrong..... I think although the plot for me was very obvious (you could see most of the events coming a mile away), there was less humour than before and a much more serious tone, it still worked really well. It still had the TV feel about it, could almost have been a 2 part special rather than a full blown feature film. That sounds like a criticism, but it is not as I think that is what works best. For me this has to be the very last though, the girls are just that bit too old now to make it work and it's time to say goodbye to the handbags and shoes for good.
