Well I liked it, you have what you are suppose to... the 4 girls, New York and stories about love and Sex. Carrie with auburn hair is really cute and I hate Big but this is a private matter!
What I feared happened; the story is what I thought they would do because it was the easy way... I won't tell it here because I do not want to give the plot away. Despite this few negative comments I liked it... some good jokes, some tender moments... the same humour we have been used to during the various TV seasons. I was happy to see then again and on big screen.
Between the different girls you have the different aspects of love life. I must say I have a tender feeling for those four ladies, I saw them for the first time when I was studying in the UK almost 10 years ago. Since I have seen most of the episode, probably all and have them on DVD. They made me much curious about sex (if that is possible) and they made me read few things. Thanks to them, not directly, I must say I learned quite a few things.
Sex is great, joyful and fun... exciting and mind-blowing... exquisite and sweet. It is not about performance or how many times you do it... sex is an art form and everybody can learn it. It is not a physical contest but it is all about feeling and connection... many men do not understand that and many women too. It is something we need to learn. It is not innate! Reproduction is! Pleasure is not! We men are mostly to be blamed but through my different relationships I have realised that many women do not know their own body. It is a learning process to really enjoy sex. It comes from this stupid society that depicts sex as dirty and bad. A society that does not want to hear about it or talk about it and only points out the deviant and stupid practices (Max Mosley, Elliot Spitzer...) Some need to go to extremes and this is not much better. For good sex you need just to be two, preferably be in love but it is not an unconditional necessity, and then let your bodies feel, touch, kiss... (censured!!!!)
Back to the movie itself, I am not a big fan of the money and label part of the show... this is a big part of New York, of Manhattan and often of today's society. And to be honest although the sex part is fun, it is sometimes misleading in my opinion. I must be the only guy to like it, men are made fun of (I make often fun of myself so I don't mind) all the time and although they deserve it they are not responsible alone for the mess relationships often end up in. Ladies you have to learn few things about sex too, not only men!
I have been twice in New York in the last two months (once for holidays once for work) and I love that city. It is just amazing. I love the old skyscrapers (no Freudian psychoanalysis please), the different parts of Manhattan, central park... I just like it... May be one day I will go to the cinema school there.
In a nutshell the movie is good, you have what you are suppose to get, no big surprises but if you love the show and the girls and New York you will like the movie.
