'Sex and the City' (Opens May 30)

I've just got to get past Candace Bergen and Jennifer Hudson in the movie.

From what I've read, Candace Bergen only has one scene. Not sure about Hudson, but I'm pretty sure majority of the movie focuses on the girls. Did anyone see the pics from the London premiere? Sarah Jessica has this big peacock head piece thing... It seemed like Carrie Bradshaw was attending the premiere, not SJP.

I am a humongous fan of the series, I own the complete set on DVD and I'm not sure how many times I've watched all the episodes. I'm very excited for this movie. It's going to be a good summer for movies!

I can't wait for the movie. I love watching the shows beacuse of Evan Handler (Charlotte's 2nd hubby, Harry) Man do I love that guy.
Can't wait to see the movie!!!

I also enjoy watching Miranda and Steves relationship more than some of the others.

Haha, I agree. I don't know what she was thinking but I guess people were looking for her to take a risk because that's usually what Carrie does.

I went to a midnight showing last night, anyone else?? Who's ready to start talking??

[*Liz*]

Me too. (Boyfriend works at the theater so free screenings. I loved it; cried several times. I don't care what reviews/critics say, I enjoyed it.

[laughingplace<3]

I saw it today and thought it was a good movie. I did find it a bit odd that when Miranda was going to tell Carrie about what she said to Mr. Big, the first time, it completely changed.

I also didn't like Carrie getting back with Mr. Big. I thought it was very cliche, and it would have been better if they kept it that they broke up.

I completely disagree. I think that the majority of the fans wanted Carrie to get her happy ending with Big, and it would've been horrible if they ended the movie with them still split. I do think the whole movie was very predictable, but it was still fun. It felt like a big valentine to the fans, even more than the series finale...

Charlotte is finally able to have a baby, Carrie gets her wedding, despite a bump in the road Miranda and Steve end up happy, Samantha is back in NY, can admit to being 50 and is still fabulous and happy. Yay yay yay!



I teared up twice... when Charlotte revealed she was pregnant, and when Carrie was reading all the emails from Big.

I thought the overall style was in keeping with the series as well. I expected it to be less graphic but there everything was, more in your face than ever due to the big screen!

The only thing that bothered me had nothing to do with the actual movie...there was a girl in our theater who could not have been older than 10. She looked like your stereotypical mean girl if you will... very prissy, huge expensive purse on her arm, skirt and tank top and wedge heels, hair in a ponytail sprayed to the high heavens and a sour look on her face. I first saw her in the ladies room and was shocked when she came in the same theater. She was there with her mother, and every time there was a suggestive scene I kept thinking about her watching this, and it actually made me sad. Why would any mother bring such a young child to this? It's rated R for a reason.

I actually thought it was fairly tame, given the way the series was. Yes, there were a few 'scenes', but there was only 1 really graphic scene involving Miranda - totally out of character for Samantha. The other scenes involving the girls were rather tame (except for Dante)

I found most of the plot weak - it felt a little thrown together and a lot of the characters did not react the way they would have given the tv series. For example, I was disappointed that Smith gave up on Samantha so easily. He was always a fighter and to just let her walk off was disappointing. It almost seemed as if his storyline was just there for filler. And for that matter, the 'old' Samantha would have paid a visit to Dante before leaving Cali - nope...not in the movie.

I was happy with Charlotte & Harries storyline - Yeah!!!

Miranda & Steves' plot line seemed rushed too.

Carrie & Big....I just wish the storyline had of been different for them. I am happy to see them together, but the depression part of the movie was boring. I wish in the end, to have made it a true fairy tale ending, that it would have turned out that Big was the sole buyer for the new penthouse and they would end up living there happily ever after.

I liked Jennifer Hudsons character, it was a nice storyline!

I just wish the series was still on....

I saw it today and I liked it...I am just a little upset at Samantha...I understand what she gave up to be with Smith but he was a great guy to her...I guess that is how she wanted here life...SINGLE...I hope they will make these movies every so often so we can catch up on their lives...I would see them all...

I definitely agree! The romance between Carrie, and Big and Carrie and NYC have been the underlying love stories the whole time....even when Carrie was with Aiden and the Russian. I believe the writers always intended Carrie to either be single in NYC or with Big...which I thought was PERFECT....just like Cinderella!

I loved the movie and thought it was great. I did think it was a little tame compared to the HBO series but at the same time thinking about those huge screens and all that sex would have been a little "in your face!"

Just like when the series ended, now that the movie is out and I have seen it, I am sad it is over. It is like having good friends move away...but thank goodness for DVD's!

Did anyone else hear the rumor someone was going to die?? It was all over IMDB and every time the phone would ring or when Steve went to Buddkhan I kept waiting for the (excuse the pun) other shoe to drop. I actually went and saw it again because I was soo nervous the first go thru. I thought it was ok. It didn't feel quite like the series to me, I can't explain it. There were some good parts i enjoyed and it's cool that it's all wrapped up and we know how it ends.

[elmjimmlm]

I had read the same thing about someone dying...I told my friend before the movie started and we were nervous the whole way thru...I kept thinking that it was going to be Mr. Big...So glad it was a rumor and not true...

[PirateLover]

Did anyone else hear the rumor someone was going to die?? .

I had heard the rumor as well, but a few days before the premiere, one of the producers or writers (can't remember who right now) came out and actually said that they would never do that, and guaranteed that none of the main characters die.

i loved the movie. i was a little dissapointed on samantha not hooking up with dante but other then that i loved it. sooo glad carrie and mr big ended up together at the end.

I loved it! Cried many times, happy and sad tears. I adored the series, and wasn't disappointed at all with the movie. I loved how seemlessly fashion and NYC remained supporting characters.

I'm very glad Miranda and Steve worked things out, as they were always my favorite. Miranda can just be so.....difficult, sometimes.

And did anyone else notice Stanford and the cigarette while Carrie was getting into the car to go to the library for the wedding? That bugged me for some reason.

Oh, and you know I had to weigh in on Jennifer Hudson's role. Completely unnecessary, IMO. I couldn't even understand what she was saying half the time.

Anyway, can't wait for this movie to hit DVD.
