Sex (ish) and the City Movie

Leisure Girl and her miraculous sister ventured into a Santa Cruz movie theater to see the much anticipated (well, by Leisure Girl at any rate) Sex and the City movie.


The results? Mixed.
Is the movie worth seeing? Well, obviously. Are you really going to miss out on Sex and the City? Don't you want to know what happens next? Of course you do, don't be silly. And much of what made the TV show fun was there in full force. Amazingly bizarre clothes, expensive shoes, and cute boys (Leisure Girl's sister was a fan of Dante especially). But some things, sadly, seemed to be missing. The sex, for one, as well as a lot of the fun of the show.
Perhaps forty-something women in long term relationships aren't quite as voyeuristicly interesting? Weird sexual predilections are better suited to a half hour format? Hard to say.
All in all, worth seeing, but only as enjoyable as one of their slower episodes.
