The new Sex & The City film premiered in London on Monday night and… The movie is getting mixed reviews. Not good! The well-respected Times only gave the pic 2 out of 5 stars! Here are some highlights of what their critic has to say: - 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 ...

Last night was the world premiere of the Sex and the City movie, and it was held in London for some reason even though none of the movie or tv show took place there.  The first major review is now out, from the London Times Online, and they thankfully give it 2 stars out of 5.  Granted, the guy admits the movie may be more enjoyable if you don’t like jokes in your jokes, if you're a brainless lemming or if you're record breakingly queer.

After a while I began to reason like one of the characters: maybe the problem was me. [From Times Online via We Smirch] The London Times should have sent a woman ...
