This movie was seriously terrible, and the reason for that was simple: the characters we see in this movie are not the characters we know.
Usually what made this show great was that you could, at some point in your life, identify with one of the four characters.
But simply hearing Carrie say to Big when he gives her a TV for their anniversary that "hmm, jewelry would have been nice" made me cringe. At least his present was from the heart, since the story behind it was that he enjoyed watching an old movie with her the other day. To be honest, Big is usually not the kind of character I would ever see settling down and being "controlled" by a woman, so to me, he did an awesome job. I mean, after a long day at work he decides to make Carrie happy and go with her to a movie premiere. I mean, c'mon, this guy is doing everything to make her happy. And what does she do? Complains all the time and then cheats on him with Aidan in a foreign country. This movie made me hate Carrie, the whole time I kept thinking she was acting like a spoiled 16 year old. At no point did she stop to think. I mean,even though she was never perfect in the series, she was someone who would stop and ask herself rhetorical questions every five minutes. For someone with so much experience in relationships, she was so stupid. The other characters were also equally dumb, Miranda was maybe the only one that was still half normal.
All in all, I just wish the producers of this film would have stayed true to the characters and focused on what really mattered instead of trying to impress us with a bunch of superficial things, which in the end, made everything in the movie look shallow.
score 2/10
