So last night I received the call of all great super-friends,
“The Wingman Call.” Every guy knows what I’m talking about, when your friend is
being dragged by his girlfriend or wife to some boring event, party or in this
case a chick flick. So I asked: what’s the movie she wanted to see? And he says
to me, “Sex and the City!” Now normally I would’ve just said, “I got you.” But
this is chick flick times 100. So I was going to say that the wingman call
wasn’t working and then it hit me: my wife was going to want to see it and I
wouldn’t have to be a wingman. So I killed two birds with one stone.
Now for all who don’t know what Sex and the City is, it was
an HBO series that won many awards, about 4 women who live in New York and are best friends through
everything. From boyfriends, to breakups, child birth, cancer, and just living
in New York,
everything every woman in the world thinks about and oh yeah “SEX!!!!” So, the
movie takes place 3 years after the ending of the HBO series. First we have
Miranda (Cynthia Dixon). She moved to Brooklyn
to be with her son and her husband, who cheats on her because he wasn’t getting
any sex from her, and after six months they finally decide to and she says,
“Can you just hurry up and finish!” WOW!!! So they go through the movie with
him asking for forgiveness and her denying him. Finally after 5 months, and
some therapy she forgives him. Second we have Samantha (Kim Cattrall), who
moved to Hollywood with her younger model
boyfriend and comes to New York
every chance she has. A new neighbor moves in next door, who was having sex
every night with a different woman, and she wanted to be with him. This is where
a lot of the nudity of the movie comes in with lots of sex. (Valkor’s note:
What’s Sex and the City without the Sex right?). Well at the end she breaks up
with her boyfriend just because she felt she wasn’t making herself happy and it
was all about her. Third we have Charlotte (Kristin Davis) who lives with her
husband and adopted daughter. They find out that she is pregnant; she realizes
that her life is perfect and she is nervous because she thought she couldn’t
have any kids so she believes that something might happen to the baby, but of
course nothing happens and she has the baby with no problems. Last but not
least we have Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) an author who falls in love with
Mr. Big(Chris Noth). He buys her this big penthouse condo, makes her the
perfect closet (which every woman in the place was like awwww when he showed it
to her and every guy was like oh shit I’m in trouble), and they agree to marry
each other. Long story short he gets the wedding day jitters, leaves her stranded at the alter, she goes
into depression, the girls are there for her and after everything she forgives
him, they get married anyway and everything is great at the end of the movie.
The Good
Everything!! This movie was a great surprise. Every time I
thought it was going to get to that part where I was going to hate it,
something funny happened. This movie was funny from beginning to end especially
when they went to Mexico and Charlotte didn’t want to eat or drink anything at
a five star hotel except for some yogurt made in Poughkeepsie, because its
Mexico. She gets her workout, relaxes and in the shower drinks water and tries
to get to a bathroom, can’t and she poops her Poughkeepsie. Mario Cantone makes a couple of
appearances in the movie and makes some funny comments as well and it’s just
one funny thing after another.
The Bad
The only thing that I can say was bad is nothing
unfortunately I really wanted to hate this movie but I actually liked it a lot.
Sorry Guys this movie is definitely worth watching and taking your significant
other to watch you will laugh through the entire thing.
The Ugly
N/A
So, in conclusion go watch this movie it’s great and I’m
giving it 5 stars this has been Epic-1 tested and TOV approved!!
Peace up out!
