I'm really surprised that this movie even exists. Okay, it was obviously made to cash in on the popularity of "Sex And The City", but nothing happens! I was at least hoping that this movie would feature Big and Carrie having children as that would be the next big step in a relationship. They don't want to have kids and they advance practically nothing with their marriage! It seems like it was just an excuse to take the actresses on a real vacation to the United Arab Emirates. I mean, that's why Adam Sandler makes a lot of his movies.Another huge problem is that this movie is once again two and a half hours long! The story isn't complicated at all and it just goes on forever. It's just plain boring. This was completely devoid of laughs, but then again, I'm not sure if this was even supposed to be a comedy. It's a pity that this is the last installment in this franchise as I heard the show was at least good. It annoys me how these women refuse to even fly in coach. *1/2

Why was that film so slow? Every scene was like torture. Not funny. Plus the clothes were ugly.

Sex and the City 2 (2010) is a sequel to the 2008 Sex and the City movie, all based off the popular HBO series that lasted from 1998-2004. In this movie, Carrie is now married to Big, Charlotte has now two children and a new nanny, Samantha is single and living in New York again, and Miranda's marriage is fixed and she's in a career crisis of sorts. The girls are all gonna go away on a beyond fabulous trip to Abudabi to escape some of the troubles in their New York City lives. The actresses do a good job playing their roles, just as they always have. There is some funny/witty dialogue, and some old flames such as John Corbett come into play, so the movie does have some good things going for it. The thing that's not so great though, is the fact that this film just isn't as good or entertaining overall as the first movie or the TV show. The writing is alright at best, some good parts, but more dull parts than one cares for. The costume design is of course absolutely fabulous as Sex and the City fashion always is. I wanted there to be more meat in the plot, I think they could've went further with this film to make it more interesting. 6/10 for Sex and the City 2, still entertaining, but not as much.

Well this was... something. As much as I (surprisingly) loved the first movie, #2 was just plain offensive.It started off all right (except for that over the top gay wedding) We catch up with the girls and their significant others in NY; Carrie and Big are having growing (or couch/TV) pains, Charlotte is overwhelmed by her children and a braless (gorgeous) nanny, Miranda is working too much, and Samantha is going through the big M. This was all relatable stuff, but then Samantha gets an all expense paid trip (through Smith) and they end up in the UAE.Where every scene requires another outrageous costume change, they stay in adjoining 22,000 dollar a night suites, personal butlers, etc and its all just too, too much. And jeez the stereotyping and offensive behaviour towards middle eastern culture and travel outside America in general. It was just painful to watch. I suppose this is meant to be watched as escapism or fantasy, but still.All in, a nothing movie that had me cringing more than laughing. I will admit Big's "sparkle" and speech at the end almost had me forgiving him for his behaviour over the years.As much as I've been a fan of the girls, the entire series and the first movie I really hope this is the end. 1/6/14
