It has been two days since I last watched this movie and I am still hooked on it! OK, I already loved the series. The first movie was OK, made me cry in the cinema and all that. This second one, on the other hand, made me cry, made me scared, made me happy, made me laugh, made me question and made me reaffirm my belief on these beautiful ladies and the glory of being a woman! Well Ok I'm only 24 going on 25, people would say I'm not yet a woman, just a little lady but who cares? It's just a matter of opinion and boo y'all who dare say I still look 19. Well alright I don't look 19 anymore but you know what I mean LOL!
Right. Why do I love SATC2 more than I do the first one? Well first is the fashion and the shoes and the witty conversation that touches upon real life. Smack me for not getting up to date with a lot of newly released films for this year but SATC2 is by far the closest to reality of a movie I can get thus far. Like come on, which other movie this year that I've seen touches upon the reality of married life, children, the past coming back to haunt you and the topic that has always been a big issue - oppressed women in the under-rated religion of Islam? Second, I love it for its setting. Abu Dhabi, people!!! I have always wanted to throng through the terrains of the dessert and experience the luxurious heat with its gems and spices and beautiful colours. Besides India, where else can we feel exotic? Well ok Brazil, fair enough but I'm no fan of it! UAE and India have always been on top of my list so I'm singing an ode to Abu Dhabi and SATC2 and all things sandy and have dates (the fruit) in them! Thirdly and but of course when the setting is in a Muslim country there will always be discussion of halal and haram and the things discussed are always about the women in their veils, the burqa and the niqab. But please do watch this movie and you will LOVE it so much. Why? Because it champions Muslim women!!!
That's about all the detail I'm gonna talk about because you might not have seen it and I hope with this little post you'd want to see it now. For serious, I'm still hooked up on it. Fine fine fine the socialist feminist in me might be factor to this discussion because otherwise why am I so worked up and excited about the positive portrayal of women in a Western film that discusses "the bad religion"? But trust me, you will love watching this. Oh the flowy dress, the full gowns and the accessories *dreamy sigh* Carrie Bradshaw, too. She's one of my favourite women characters and an icon to me too. Hmm what more can I say? I'm in love with it! I hope they sell the first and second film box set online so I can watch them thousands of time again and again.
PLEASEEE if you haven't already. GO. WATCH. SEX. AND. THE. CITY. DEUX!
