Sex and the City: The Movie
Review By: Dan Deevy

It’s all about life’s endless possibilities. Whether you’re talking about the television version or the new movie, Sex and the City is a story entirely about hope; hope of finding that perfect relationship, the perfect job, a perfect Manhattan apartment… basically finding your fairytale ‘happily ever after.’ And for the viewer there’s an added something to strive for; finding the perfect group of friends to help you on your journey.
Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker), Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) and Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) are four New York women who’ve been tackling these trials and tribulations together for all to see for the last ten years.

How this power foursome actually came together remains a mystery but what is not left to the imagination is how deeply they all care for each other. From boyfriends and break-ups to weddings and funerals the only certainty throughout it all was that they were always there for each other. It’s an uncommon sisterhood that they share and I mean that both in reality and in fiction. It’s incredibly rare to see this type of relationship so clearly defined and well drawn. Watching them always give me hope for the friendships I encounter in life.
Some will speculate that the other three girls are all actually just parts of ...
