Not Quite Usual SATC Type
PostedJune 7, 2010
ValenciaVixen
from Valencia, CA
The movie starts out fabulous and over-the-top with usual SATC style. The wedding scenes were very fun and the flashbacks to the 80's were humorous. As always, the NY scenes were great with phenomenal fashion.
When the location changed to the Middle East the movie energy changed dramatically. It became more serious when there were heavy conversations about marriage and motherhood. The girls needed to have more fun. The "I Am Woman" scene could have been more production -like instead of a realistic Karaoke event. It didn't have "pow" with a "wow" factor. It was just girls singing, not THE girls singing.
I don't understand why Michael Patrick King chose the UAE for a location. It didn't make sense.
I would have thought that Paris would have been a great oversees location with a fashion show trip for Vogue. There would have been a lot more romance and fun in Paris. The repression in the UAE was hard to watch.
I understand the thought to have the girls travel overseas, but NY was also an important character to the storyline. The movie seemed to lose its way when NY was not in the movie. The fashion didn't work in the UAE. It was disjointed.
Overall, it was enjoyable, but disappointing.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
