I am not a movie reviewer so I'm reluctant to blog on this but I just saw it last night and just have to get my thoughts down.
I'm a huge fan! Loved the show, loved the first movie. This one was a bit of a disappointment of many levels.
I got to see the movie last night when a client of mine who was scheduled to shop for summer fun-wear got 2 tickets free for a premiere in Chicago through her company. She offered to take me and I could not say no. I was dying to see it. Plus, to see it with mostly women all dressed up SJP style was too much to pass up.
The event was very nice. The movie was long and really way too unrealistic, even for Sex and the City. The beginning was awkward and forced and crazy over the top. The chemistry between everyone seemed forced for most of the movie. I won't give anything away so don't worry. What I will say is as much as I loved the fashion in their show and first movie, the fashion in this was mostly absurd and unrelatable. Don't get me wrong, so much of it was beautiful. But if you ever want to know what to pack for a trip to the Middle East this will not be the movie to watch for ideas.
Anyway, I was disappointed. Although, the movie did leave me wanting to run home, put on my stilettosand wear them for everything. Walking around my home in my comfy wear, running across the street to catch a cab, pretty much everything. Although I'm fairly certain I would not look like SJP. (do you think her feet ever hurt?)
Would love to know what you thought.
Side note to movie. After the premiere we went to a steak house in Chicago for an after party. Cosmos (of course), wine, appetizers and beautiful cupcakes. The most fun was the people watching. All ages were represented and all styles too. Very fun watching the clothes (most good, some not so much) and the women.
You should post a picture of you and your friend. I'd love to see what you chose to wear for the evening!
