And WTF were they thinking Grin

I've seen it before, but I'd forgotten how utterly appalling it is!

I don't even know where to start.

Carrie has just entered in her tuxedo for the gay wedding scene....

YANBU. It’s truly truly dreadful

birdsdestiny · 09/06/2018 21:11

It was so so bad. And I loved Sex and the City. I loved Carrie which I know is unusual but I liked the fact she was hopeless and well human.

Processedpea · 09/06/2018 21:15

I saw this at the cinema and everyone loved it

HarrietKettleWasHere · 09/06/2018 21:16

Liza Minelli singing single ladies.....Shock

I like Lindy West's review, in which she described it as "essentially a home video of gay men playing with giant Barbie dolls."

IHeartKingThistle · 09/06/2018 21:23

And it's so long! Or did it just feel long?!

9amTrain · 09/06/2018 21:25

Am I the only one who likes it?

HarrietKettleWasHere · 09/06/2018 21:25

No it's mega long. It's an hour before they crack on wit the actual 'storyline'.

I'm still watching. I want to know if it can possibly go into the 'so bad it's good' territory.

It's the outrage over the telly!

Lollyb86 · 09/06/2018 21:26

I quite like itBlush as just a popcorn flick... I love the original series

TheMobileSiteMadeMeSignup · 09/06/2018 21:26

The second movie doesn't exist. It was terrible.

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 09/06/2018 21:27

Went to see it at the cinema.. Paid money to see it!

nuttyslackster · 09/06/2018 21:28

I thought it was absolute drivel. Loved the TV show and first film tho.

ShotsFired · 09/06/2018 21:32

LM doesn't so much sing "Single Ladies" as chew it like a tough steak... Grin

HarrietKettleWasHere · 09/06/2018 21:34
Grin

It was the 'dancing' to it! Where did her neck go? Confused

The first film was fantastic. This one is just unbelievably dire

Pinkyponkcustard · 09/06/2018 21:42

I feel so sorry for the little one playing Charlottes daughter she sounds so distressed!

EnthusiasmIsDisturbed · 09/06/2018 21:42

It’s was awful

I cringed through the film and people cheered because it had ended not because it was a good film

They must have signed up for it and were not able to back out before they read they script. Well I like to believe this

HarrietKettleWasHere · 09/06/2018 22:50

Charlotte wailing that she can't cope with the toddler tantrums when she doesn't work, has a plush lifestyle and has full time help Grin

IHaveBrilloHair · 09/06/2018 22:52

No, no, no.
That film is embarrassingly bad.

FineAsWeAre · 09/06/2018 23:03

I had forgotten how bad it is. I loved the tv show and the first film but the second is horrendous. I turned it off after the wedding!

ManchesterGin · 09/06/2018 23:11

When they sing Kareoke Confused

Laurence of my labia is also one of the worst lines in a film. Ever.

TheHodgeoftheHedge · 09/06/2018 23:15

I actually liked the first film but I think the second is in such poor taste I can't quite believe it was made in the 21st century.

JustVent · 09/06/2018 23:16

I went with my best mate. We walked out 30 minutes I got the film because it was so fucking awful.

And that’s coming from two avid SATC fans.

lisasimpsonssaxophone · 09/06/2018 23:22

It’s the worst film I’ve ever, ever, ever seen. Ever. EVER!

I feel angry just thinking about it.

Charlotte and Miranda crying over drinks about motherhood and then marvelling at how other women manage it ‘without help’.

Samantha giving that guy a hand job in a restaurant in full view of everyone and then making out like the locals are all horribly sexually repressed for not being ok with it.

Carrie whining at Big for not buying her any jewellery for her birthday.

The four of them ‘hilariously’ running through a souk hiding from some angry Arab men, disguised in burkhas lent to them by some local women who - PLOT TWIST - also like designer clothes! You guys! They’re just like us! Who knew?!

I hate it. I hate it.

I HATE IT.
