    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      "Love Letters of Great Men", which Carrie borrows from the library, was a prop created for the film and no such book existed during production. Demands from fans wishing to purchase the book led to many editions of a "Love Letters of Great Men" book being published. The official tie-in version was compiled by John C. Kirkland and released the same day as the film, and other editions were compiled by Ursula Doyle and Becon Hill.
    • Goofs
      Carrie returns books to the main branch of the New York Public Library. That branch has not been a lending library for more than 60 years.
    • Quotes

      Mr. Big: Ever Thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours.

    • Alternate versions
      An extended version version exists. While it shortens a few shots, collectively, by about 2 seconds, it adds about 5 minutes. The major additions are - 1. When Carrie tries on her outfits before she leaves her apartment, the rest of the girls, including Lily, try on her outfits as well. 2. Right before Carrie leaves the apartment, she disconnects the computer. 3. Carrie walks through the Mexican house alone for a bit. 4. When Miranda find her new apartment, she goes in, looks around and tell some guy that she is interested in it. 5. Following the scene where Samantha and Smith have sex and talk about Samantha feeling distanced, she and Carrie talk on the phone - Carrie is using a public phone - and Samantha tells her she will be coming much less to New York in order to take care of her relationship with Smith and Carrie is surprised. 6. Following the scene where Carrie buys the Vogue issue, she meets with Charlotte and they go trick-and-treating together with Harry and Lily and a neighbor shows her condolences, which makes Carrie wear a mask for the next door. 7. Following the scene where she types "Love..." on her laptop, Stanford calls and invites her to a party where he is bored and she declines.

    Nice for Fans But Not Great

    It has been a while since I watched the original series so when the movie started I found it cute and nice seeing these characters that I liked back together again.

    And there interactions at the start are the movie keep it entertaining but when you head into the plot that's where things come off the rails.

    I don't understand the plot and I think that is an issue. I won't go into spoilers but it just seems so strange that they decided that this is what they would do.

    I also find that this movie doesn't work as these characters have already reached their original ending if you get what I mean.

    Charlotte has a baby, Carrie and Big are together, Miranda has her family and Samantha sound someone she could be with. This all happens at the end of the show because that is the end of the story for these characters. This can sometimes seem forced for lack of a better word.

    The jokes are also very 90s cheesy sitcom jokes too. But some people like that.

    So I would say watch it if you are a fan of the show but be prepared to be disappointed by some decisions, I think you'll enjoy it for the most part.
