Synopsis

Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda are all married now, but they're still up for a little fun in the sun. When Samantha gets the chance to visit one of the most extravagant vacation destinations on the planet and offers to bring them all along, they surmise that a women-only retreat may be the perfect excuse to eschew their responsibilities and remember what life was like before they decided to settle down.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Verity Robins Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
abbiehouston Why was that film so slow? Every scene was like torture. Not funny. Plus the clothes were ugly.
rubysuzi They get what they want only to be insecure......and their spoiled...only Miranda is real, Samantha is disgusting Charlotte and Mr Big should know better..Carrie is sad and selfish.I wish they had better writers.. And watching TV is not the end of world.
eric262003 As a heterosexual guy I have watch my share of romantic dramas and coming to see the movie "Sex and the City" I have to say that though I don't completely hate "Sex and the City 2", then again I never had the strong feelings going to see the movie and that I never cared much for the series. I was never invested by the four leading ladies who are constantly obsessed by consuming trendy luxury while talking the talk of sexual empowerment and scoping out a rich beau. Like the series itself and the first installment, they hoped they could swing it both ways. Sadly it was bombarded with vulgar undertones and unscrupulous exhibitions that took over the concept of a serious hidden underneath it.Two years later the sequel reunites the four girls and the vulgarity has elevated to a higher degree. This the consumer-happy quartet locates themselves from their American estates to the very gorgeous, but ultra-expensive Abu Dhabi in the UAE. And though the location was pure eye-candy with the beaches and resorts, I would have felt better watching an infomercial for two and a half hours and would never have known the difference. Just don't engage in tonsil hockey within the public spectrum and make sure that you have enough dough to tip the help generously. The plot is the same crap that materialized from the series. Lawyer Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is disgruntled by her boss who constantly dismisses her. Instead of doing the sensible thing, she just calls it quits. To her it feels like a win for woman's liberation. When really it's a cop-out. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) is now married with two children wants to get away from the stress of it all even though there's help living with them. Carries (Sarah Jessica Parker) has grown over the fact that her beau is ageing and it outraged when she discovers her book was struck with negative reviews retaliates by kissing an ex-boyfriend. Her husband's reaction is priceless. And sex kitten Samantha (Kim Cattrall) wants to ward off menopause by feeding off hormones due to the restrictions of having sex in a Muslim country.And sure the film takes largely in such heavy-handed topics like menopause and culture clashes. And sure being a mother to young children can be believably overwhelming, it still feels very hokey in my mind's perspective. Sure there's some compelling jabs about declining economy and feeling heroic of child raising alone, but the fact of staying in luxurious hotels makes these ladies hypocrites especially when Carrie tips of a Hindu servant to return home to India to be with his wife.Sure I might be jabbing on the film over the characters, but in the end I'm jabbing at both of them evenly. But if I had the money like them I still wouldn't have liked the film. It just doesn't measure up in what it preaches out to be. Even the fashion looks absurd and not trendy. The women's fashion is over-the-top and scruffy. The camera-work looks jilted and very tiresome at best. Even Liza Minelli's song number looked strange like her face and body didn't match. It was quite an unorthodox experience.
popcorninhell In the unconscionably long list of unnecessary sequels, Sex and the City 2 (2010) ranks among the worst the American film industry has to offer. While the first feature treatment of the long-running HBO series was bland and serviceable, this outing is downright offensive to its audience, the LGBT community, the Muslim community and Helen Reddy's song I Am Woman. The fact that the movie is largely set in the exotic locale of Abu Dhabi (really Morocco) and 146 freaking minutes long leads me to believe that the creators were aiming at a kind of Bob Hope road movie but settled comfortably next to Ishtar (1987) as one of the largest Arabian misfires since the Kuwait invasion.While dealing with the aftermath of an ideal happy ending, Carrie is excited to see her gay best friend Sanford (Willie Garson) and Samatha's (Kim Cattrall) gay best friend Anthony (Mario Cantone) get married. Or is he Miranda's (Cynthia Nixon) gay best friend? These vapid forty-plus-year-olds wear their friends like interchangeable accessories so I can't really keep track. We as the audience have to endure a wedding more flamboyant than the Village People getting married at the Grammys, promptly followed by a movie premiere featuring pre-twerk Miley Cyrus. After meeting a sheik amused by Samantha's Samantha-ness, the four are whisked away to Abu Dhabi to enjoy the comforts of the sheik's new hotel; and maybe cause an incident or two.Based on the episodes I've seen and now the two movies I've had to endure, I can safely say that Carrie and her crew of selfish, petty, permanently malcontented Real Housewives of Saks Fifth Avenue need to disappear. They simply are no longer characters worthy of consideration and contemplation. They've become parodies of the fairer sex and themselves; no longer endearing in any way. Please go away.Okay, now that I have gotten that off my chest, let's address the vexing antics the foursome get into while in Abu Dhabi; a country with laws on female modesty. Samantha is arrested for getting jiggy with it out on the beach forcing the Abu Dhabi trip to come to a merciful end. Of course that ending doesn't arrive until after the four are almost strung up by their thumbs for wearing revealing clothing and having condoms in their purses. There's another scene where Arab women wear "the spring collection" underneath their burqa; because, you know, it's not hot in the UAE. Then there are repeated scenes of the "good-natured" ladies abusing their status before a pod of butlers. The whole treatment of the Arab world is just frightfully ignorant. You'd think college-educated women from the multitudinous island of Manhattan would be a little more culturally sensitive.I hate this movie. I hate the story, I hate the characters, I hate the episodic flow of it and I hate the offensive mentality of it. Sex and the City 2 is a broad, grotesque spectacle that can't hold sway with a seasoned fan let alone anyone who didn't grow up with HBO. It's scary to think that the best thing that one can say about a movie of this caliber is it features a 64-year-old Liza Minnelli singing a Beyonce Knowles song. Avoid this film like a pair of counterfeit pumps.
