Yes, I saw the movie today. Yes, I enjoyed it. The ladies looked over-the-top fabulous. If you haven't seen it, this is where you might want to stop reading.
Ok... for those who have seen it, I have one question. Okay, maybe two. Once and for all, why can't Hollywood send the message that's it's ok to be single? In movies, why do women always have to find love to be happy? There's nothing wrong with being like Samantha - strong, single, self-assured, and happy! I enjoyed the flick, however, don't let Hollywood brainwash you into thinking that you need a man to be happy! Find true happiness within yourself! I feel that Hollywood endings are so selfish on the part of writers, producers, etc. - because they give the viewer what they want but they perpetuate myths and are far from realistic. The truth is that yes, you can be single, fulfilled, and happy...with an amazing wardrobe or without. What I took away from the film (besides the fact that most women on the street will never look as stylish as Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte) is that it's the friendships in your life that are most important and will help get you through hard times.
