When sex becomes a joke, city becomes Sex and the City 2

The first time I heard about Sex and the City (SATC) was through the "Southern Weekend" when I was still a little bit sharp, and I learned about the four women with different temperaments in the twisted waist city and fashion dramas except for the wealthy soap stalls. . And then it started to look like no match until the last season. The TV version ended six years ago. After SATC, many movies and televisions want to jump into the trap of fashion dramas, but unfortunately it is difficult to surpass the limelight. The female friends around me seem to have almost nothing to dislike about SATC. Some of them went to buy a genuine DVD collection after the TV finale. Open a fashion photography party, and some are more brave, go to NYC alone to find love. The first film version was released four years after the TV finale. The charm of the wedding dress with peacock feathers is infinite, but it makes the prince linger outside the church again and again, although there are still some corners where feminists criticize Carrie's marriage, most (women) people's hearts , I still hope she can find her favorite.

The time inside and outside the city flies by. Those people, those cities, those theaters, always inadvertently deduce all kinds of emotions on the stage of life. Two years after the film version, the New York foursome finally returned last Thursday. Unlike the previous TV series that needed to take care of the 30-minute plot development, and unlike the first movie version, which used Carrie's wedding as the center of the show, the SATC after getting married and having a child has a lot of significance. What about declaring the passing of those things that the foursome regarded as life?

I don't think the quartet is particularly old. After all, they are all in their 40s. If there are no wrinkles, it would be too inconsistent. After all, the main audience of this restricted level is mature women. The time-travel at the beginning was very happy, but it was a bit weak when it came to the real big show. No wonder the imdb score was not even 4. It used to be dramatic, this time it was (mostly) comedy (Samantha's), and this woman was just so hilarious. It's a pity that this kind of story with jokes and dialogue, plus the gay wedding and karaoke scenes that pay tribute to classic Hollywood musicals, is really loose, no matter how high Carrie wants to open her skirt.

The location is also changing. In the past, it was a NYC city sightseeing advertisement, and this time it was a travel style film by Abu Dhabi. Exotic could have made a lot of interesting possibilities for international exchanges, but the screenwriters just couldn’t do it. Miranda's career has changed, and her repeated lectures on Middle Eastern culture and language are extremely blunt. Wouldn't it be more interesting to compare it with her former lawyer's life? Scheherazade and the Indian butler are good foreshadowings, but unfortunately in the end, it makes people want to bump into tofu. After filling the rich and prosperous part of the Middle East, the rest is basically a satire of the culture there, and no one will actually go to One Thousand and One Nights. Can't the fashion underground party be more creative besides borrowing layers of skin? Airport taxis are actually broken until Toyota, we have to watch the "flying carpet"! The love of the Indians could have been a bright spot, but unfortunately, the relief for the special hardship did not even take a head. The Birkin bag is so tugged that only the handle is broken (...warranty cover...)?

Carrie's small Middle Eastern hat is amazing, and it should go well with the pair of embroidered shoes later. But I really don't like the big brown suit of Dior J'Adore and dinner date when I met Aiden at the market (Is it just to hide people...?). Samantha's shape is very eye-catching and fits her personality very well. I'm a little worried about the weight of her earrings. Who can tell me how heavy earrings can be for my pierced ears? The decor of the other two is also beautiful. There are a lot of costumes, but they are not distributed according to the characters of the four people: in the desert, when the four-member group such as the female version of 007 appeared, it was very pompous, but unfortunately, Charlotte and Samantha were confused just by looking at the clothes...

Went out late at night on Saturday At the time, many girls at the door were taking pictures beside the light box of the stills. The azure moonlight and the street lights wrapped around the entrance of the huge cinema, the fragrant clothes on the temples and the constantly flickering starlight, the movie that just ended seemed to overflow. The topic that Carrie discussed, worried, and discussed again, the kiss, the Danish architect, everything, was originally a gorgeous dream of a woman wandering in material, man, and lust. Real life, love, marriage, and family do not belong to the world of SATC.

You and me, the two of us, oh wait, and a Rolex and a Black Diamond.
