It's been four years since we last saw our favorite New York foursome, we're brought up to date as to what's been happening with the girls: Miranda and Steve are having martial problems, as she's too busy with her career; Charlotte and Harry haven't been able to conceive so they decided to adopt a little girl from China; Samantha is now living in Malibu with Smith, still managing his career; Carrie is getting ready to move in with Big when they decide to get married. The rest of the movie mainly focuses on Carrie's wedding and the aftermath of what happens, however there are several subplots as well surrounding the rest of the girls.
Running at 2 hours and 40 min, this chick flick feels more like 4 or 5 episodes of the show just put together and labeled as a movie. While it was a fun girl movie, it would be better spent watching it on DVD with your gal friends at home, drinking martini's, although many women took this as an opportunity for a night out with the girls.
Honestly, I didn't think it was that great, but I guess if you love the tv show, you'll probably love the movie. While I never caught the series in it's original run, uncut, I do regularly watch the edited syndicated version on TBS late night and find the show and characters entertaining, I just never really got that into it. I probably won't be seeing this again until they chop it up into several episodes and air it on tv, like they've done with other syndicated shows who made a movie continuation of the series.
