Something's gotta give——看Sex and the City

Gardener

土人一听洋玩意就不能免俗，所以今天赶第一场看SEX AND THE CITY。

昨天在NEWTOWN看电影，整个放映厅才4个半人（其中一男中途开溜，只能算半个）。今天可好，10：30的电影，等俺们10：45进去还在放广告，扫一眼几乎快满座的放映厅里，估计四分之三是女人，老、中、青、幼全齐了，放映过程中偶尔听到几声娃娃哭也不意外了。

电影很长，148分钟；中间笑料频生，多少可以弥补些。4个女人比电视版都老了不少，即使华服也掩盖不住岁月的印迹。几个男配还是意气风发，好象被时间冷藏过，实在很让半边天沮丧。

如果把电影当一场时装秀，SEX AND THE CITY比DEVIL WEARS PRADA养眼、轻松。四个已经不惑的NY女人象四只花蝴蝶般在城里的月光下孜孜不倦地寻找2L：Label和Love。Label不是问题，有钱就行；Love很成问题，无爱不欢。做爱做的事情很容易，要爱要的生活很困难。四个人在跌了几十年跟头后，有的修成正果，有的好事多磨；有的破镜重圆，有的百折不挠。结局永远和初衷有那么点联系，又有那么点偏差。

喜欢时装的，看完电影后一定还想买个碟收藏，可以时不时温习。这样的都市时尚宝典比杂志多了生活气息，比天桥多了些人间烟火。即使最保守的人，看了电影里的穿衣打扮也不免惊叹：原来还可以这样大胆......

如果仅仅是时装秀，也对不起这响当当的片名。所以，电影版也顺应潮流，引进几名肌肉男，还有好莱坞还魂丹——床戏，虽然不总是在床上。大概这样才可以男女通杀，保证票房肠肥脑满。

结尾众望所归，告诉傻坐在观众席的人们颠扑不破的真理：

Labels do not mean anything when it comes to love and life. （该句由LG总结）

所以，带着2L梦想来到都市NY的女人们，幸运的话最终可以实现2L梦想，只要你愿意将LABEL让位给LIFE，留着LOVE长相依、不分离。

所以，出门追梦的时候千万不要忘记：Something's gotta give.

看一个老外的观后感吧。

Sex And The City - A Bush Boy's Review

Now the line up at the Regent, was a short two miles long,
And it was only then I noticed something was slightly wrong.
Of all those waiting patiently to be ushered through the door,
The blokes were sorta outnumbered, well, I only counted four.

And the other three were wearing dresses, and what I hoped were padded bras,
Not the sort to small talk footy with, or discuss old Holden cars.
Thank Christ they served free alcohol, "A beer for me thanks Bruiser",
The waiter flung me a sly grin, and a poofy vodka cruiser.

But the movie mates, the movie, well here's a bush poets take,
I thought going in, that Sex And The City, was maybe a mistake.
But the women bloody loved it they clapped, they cheered, they roared,
Like the last few seconds of Origin, when the Queensland boys have scored.

Four middle aged sheila's talking, about sex and what's wrong with their men,
As they keep changing their clothes, like their minds, again and again and again.
Now for their age their not doing to badly, though their beauty is starting to pale,
And here's a free tip for you Andy, these chicks are no Megan Gale.

They name drop designers as often, as a cow on fresh lucerne lets fly,
And that's a little hint at the plot boys, so let's let that one slide by.
Have you noticed the names of these jokers, Dior and Louie Button?
I imagine Bill Smith wouldn't cut it, if he took a designers job on.

The plots about friendship and real life, how thing aren't always so rosy,
How you have to forgive imperfections to help your love life stay cosy.
How your sex life doesn't stop when your forty, IF girls, you continue to wax,
And the phobia I once had about sushi, for some reason is galloping back.

The stars of the show though aging , still show they've got what it takes,
Though it helps that the crew with the air brush were good and made no mistakes.
There are cameo's worthy of mention, Wedding Planner and PA. come to mind,
Animal lovers will be thrilled with the terrier, with a cushion fetish of some kind.

But in spite of my obvious bias, it's "Big" who near steals the scenes.
A man madly in love with his soul mate, and no bloody clue what she means.
Just another poor bloody male, just trying to do what is right,
Who keeps stepping on toes without trying and always losing the fight.

A few surprises pop up in the plot friends, but I'm not letting those out for free,
Go pay for a ticket you whowsers, you can't all get a free one like me.
But just to tickle your taste buds, not all fashion choices are great,
A bunch of roses is a new deadly weapon, and shoe fetish fans - don't be late.

An Italian neighbour is the spoiler, he's gets to have way too much fun,
And a quick cheeky glance in his shower, put an end to Mr Big's run.
But the good guys all win in the long run, old fans will be screaming for more,
And new chums, like me and my missus, can pick up on what's happened before.

In conclusion, though loathe too admit it, I enjoyed this damn flick from the start,
While explosions, gun fights, car chases and Clint Eastwood all miss a part.
It does have a fight and forgiveness, true mateship and humour by hell,
My wife gives it an eight, and I'm man enough, to give it this rating as well.

很幽默

改天去养眼一下。

Of all tho ...

看了点 preview, 她们确实老得挺快啊！

这周上班，下周看去，我一直是很喜欢这部剧集的。养眼，幽默，尖锐，讽刺，总之很好看。我好几个鬼子同事却说rude, boring, ridiculous, sluts。。。真不知道他们怎么那样认为。

Gardener

都说这片子是chick flick。男观众很少。昨天某女一下子买了BONDI电影院400张票，招呼朋友们一起去看。

是，我对这个电影和电视剧毫无兴趣。
但是LD好像很喜欢。

Gardener

轻松、养眼，有什么比这个更适合消磨时间？

:) 是，是。。。
不过我更喜欢的类型是“暴力，恐怖和灾难”

到电影院看这类片子才叫爽。
生活片看看电视，就够了。
btw我很搞不懂为何那几个老女人到现在还那么火。那个samantha 感觉身上的皮都有点皱巴巴了，还那么暴露。

蓝月亮

要看灾难片, 有一个片子要上, 你们可以关注一下, the happening

貌似很恐怖

这次的电影几乎全都皱巴巴的老太婆了

Gardener

昨天看了THE HAPPENING的预告片，估计是不敢去看的。

蓝月亮

其实我昨天也看了的.

只是怕挨砸, 所以没说

现在顶着钢盔说一下, 我纵观整个电影, 心里出现的最多的一个词汇是: 惨不忍睹

蓝月亮

其实电影有趣的地方还挺多的. 我们可以开个帖子另讨论.

不过说个体外话, 这个电视也就是10年吧

怎么这几个人老的这么快阿, 保养的真是不太好

像nicole kidman应该和他们差不多吧, 人家有时候还能装下嫩看不出来.

Cathyyun

10年啊，30以后的女人老的很快的，我倒觉得她们还好，只是不大经得起近景了。

joy4land

上周末看了,觉得还好啊.　有点老说明她们整容手术做的少嘛,有什么不好?
