What are critics saying?

San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle

The best American movie about women so far this year, and probably the best that will be made this year.

89

Austin Chronicle by Kimberley Jones

In its cinematic incarnation, Sex and the City has lost none of its bawdiness yet gained a more profound sense of soberness. Parker, especially, who in the last season of the show bordered on insufferable in her affected squeaks and shrieks, is allowed to go to very dark places – to be, in fact, quite unfabulous.

88

Chicago Tribune by Jessica Reaves

Michael Patrick King's screenplay hits all the right notes, building on the warmth and familiarity of the series (which King also wrote).

83

Entertainment Weekly by Owen Gleiberman

A movie that taps directly back into the show's primal appeal, which is the sweet, sad, saucy delight of sharing these women's company.

80

New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman

The movie's beating heart is the friendship between the women, who had found some sort of happiness by the show's 2004 finale. Now they're all at a personal crossroads and need one another more than ever.

Los Angeles Times by Carina Chocano

Can't rightly be called a romantic comedy in the dismal, contemporary sense, though it is at times romantic and is consistently very funny. It's also emotionally realistic, even brutal.

Premiere by Emily Rems

It gives you everything you ever loved about the series, and blows it out into super-size cinematic proportions.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer by Athima Chansanchai

In this film, the clothes and the city are characters as vital as the four leads, and they don't disappoint. But don't expect any trend-setting in the manner of the series. This is a runway that begins and ends with the movie.

Philadelphia Inquirer by Carrie Rickey

The four women couldn't be better - or better matched. As always, Parker is the standout, cracking your heart and cracking you up with equal ease.

USA Today by Claudia Puig

Amid the style, sass and sexiness is plenty of sentimentality, especially at the satisfying conclusion.
