I couldn’t help but wonder, is this movie going to be any good?
Tuesday, May 13th, 2008Tragedy struck the Sex and the City World Premier in London last night when Sarah Jessica Parker was viciously attacked. The unprovoked act occurred outside the Leicester Square Cinema as Parker arrived for he film. An unknown Carrie hater flung a Phillip Treacy-inspired chartreuse mushroom at Parkers head, which pierced her soul spewing out a garish bouquet of dyed flowers. However in a move right of NBC’s Heroes, Parker sprung up, picked up her brains and smiled wide for the cameras.

Unfortunately her movie didn’t fare as well, receiving only two stars from Times reviewer Will Pavia. Says Pavia
“There may be a problem with a film when a narrator constantly tells you the meaning of what you have just seen, gift-wrapping each scene with a moral. There may be a problem with stretching Sex and the City into a two hour and twenty minute film - it can feel like a never ending dinner party: however pleasant the courses, after a while you can hardly eat another one.”
Hmm, oh well, we’ll still see it and at least the reviewer did acknowledge what his problem may be.
“None of these problems seemed apparent to the women who sat around me in the cinema in Leicester Square, laughing and weeping in quick succession. After a while I began to reason like one of the characters: maybe the problem was me.”
Yes, we agree. So everyone with with a couple of X chromosomes and our gay buddies (and metro-dudes) unite. May 30th should be fun. Btw, no Sara Jessica Parkers were harmed during the premier of the movie or writing of this post.
