MTRCB Ruins Another Movie For Me
Did I like the Sex and the City movie? Well...some parts yes, some parts not so much.

Now I've refrained myself from reading the reviews so as to not spoil the movie for myself and be able to form my own opinion of it.


So far these are the things I loved about the movie:


1. Conversation/Dialogue: This has always been 1 of the things I loved about this show. Some parts of their conversation are so inane and funny they remind me of my conversation with my friends. Below are some convo topics that I loved in particular.

    a. Carrie's lament and confirmation that she wore a bird on her head.
    b. The whole Witch and Sexy Kitten convo between Carrie and Miranda.
    c. Carrie mentioning that Charlotte's luck may be on the all clear since something bad had already happened to her (Charlotte).
2. Sticking to character: I loved the moments when they showed classic behavior of some of the characters.

    a. Charlotte: Her little steps and flappy behavior when she wants to escape a place. There was this one scene that so reminded me of that episode when she got hit by a taxi and met her first husband, Trey.
    b. Samantha: Having the balls to call out someone when he was interrupting her speech.
    c. Carrie: Carrie's little jumps when having fun or particularly excited about something.
    d. Miranda: Pointing out that the only Halloween costume for women are Witch and Sexy Kitty.
3. Bringing back of known secondary characters: Again this harks back to the fact that I love continuity. It's nice to see the following minor characters.

    a. Stanford
    b. Anthony
    c. Carrie's Editor. (Candace Bergin)
    d. Magda
4. Showing the dress she wore in the show's credits: They had to show this dress.

5. Smith: Hooooot!




Things I didn't like so much about the movie.

1. Scene with the shrink: The shrink's lines were so rehearsed.

2. Samantha got a dog: I've never really thought of her as a dog person.

3. So little scenes with Smith: Smith is one of the bigger reasons I wanted to watch this movie.

4. Carrie's dress in the final scene: WTF?!!!

5. The big change in Carrie's apartment: I liked Carrie's apartment the way it was.



But all in all the film was good for me. What really pissed me off was that there were so many cut scenes from the movie. And it was so obvious too. Damn you MTRCB!!! I mean they've already classified this movie as R-18 (I think). That should have already kept the minors out of the cinema so why the fuck should they still cut the scenes if not to just piss the non-minor movie goers? Dude, the censorship here just sometimes pisses me off big time. I guess I should just order a DVD of this from Spectra to see the whole film when it comes out.
