Guys' Perspective On "Sex & The City"? |
We don't care. Sorry, guys, we love you. But we just do not care whether or not you liked the "Sex & the City" movie. It's not for you.
(Ed note: this section is typically reserved for Guys' Perspectives on Girlfriend Getaways, which we find funny and are supposed to be tongue-in-cheek. The male response to the "Sex & the City" movie has been less tongue-in-cheek.)

"Sex & the City" was the box office winner this weekend, beating out the Indiana Jones film (which I definitely want to see, just not as badly). This is testament to the droves of women, worldwide, who relate to Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha in one way or another.
It is insane to me that men are finding it necessary to offer their two-cents on the phenomenon.
Counterpunch offers their male perspective on it.
We don't care.
Jake Coyle pats himself on the back for being "confident enough" to brave the "chick flick".
Congratulations.
Kyle Shamorian of Helium quips:
"First of all, its emphasis on materialism is ridiculous..."
It's a movie. Relax. You think all those toys Batman has are purchased at Target?
Do you know what we think is ridiculous?
- Car chase scenes that last longer than 10 seconds.
- Machine-gun annihilation sequences that go on and on and on.
- Steven Seagal.
And after a male reviewer for the UK Times Online sniffed and scoffed at the film, an insightful comment from one reader says:
"Why oh why are there males reviewing this movie. It's getting a little boring reading reviews by patronising oh so blah male reviewers who just dont get it. Also the movie is entertainment, an escape from today's 'meaner' times.
Tash, Adelaide, Australia"
This is not your typical "chick flick". It is an extension of the 6-season HBO series. If you didn't watch and love the series, you probably will not appreciate the movie. Don't kill it for those of us who DID watch and love the series. Go play with your G.I. Joe dolls action figures.
