The "Girls" are Back!!!

Any person who has at least a single synapse firing understands that SATC 2 is NOT a gritty documentary of real life New York women but an over-the-top FANTASY of 4 uber-women who have spent most of their adult years striving for perfect lives. These lives include becoming a partner in a high powered law firm, becoming a mother of adorable, perfect children, bedding any man in NY and marrying Mr. Big. Since last we met (SATC 1), the ladies have achieved their dreams. And yet they find their lives are not perfect. The law partner works in a high stress office where the senior partner has no use for her even though she sacrifices her person life for the office. The high society mother has 2 children who cry non-stop, often for no reason, and nothing she can do will make them the perfect children she desperately desired. The party girl finds that menopause has zapped her libido and she needs to carry around a tackle box of vitamins and hormones to make it through the day. And the bride discovers that Mr Big is really John, an over stressed Wall Street exec, who just wants to come home, eat dinner and watch TV.
Over the course of the next 2 1/2 hours, the ladies learn that you have to live for each moment in order to be happy. That troubling times pass, either on their own or with action, that people often are held accountable for poor judgement and poor behavior and that you should cherish the relationships you have rather than the ones you thing you are owed.
Dispersed during this lesson learning time, there are sex, alcohol, fashions, burkas, birkins, very politically-incorrect jokes and hijinks that are taken out of Marx Brothers movies.
So, if you are looking for a meaningful experience, watch Schindler's List, if you are looking for 2 1/2 hrs of summer escape, go see SATC 2.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
