Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert What a pleasure this movie is, showcasing actresses I've admired for a long time, all at the top of their form. | 15 | |
eye Weekly Adam Nayman This film is ridiculous — the average episode of Sex and the City plays like Italian neo-realist drama by comparison. | 1 | |
ReelViews James Berardinelli While the dialogue lacks some of the crispness of Sex and the City, the film as a whole proves to be more tolerable because the characters aren't as fundamentally repugnant. | 13 | |
Rolling Stone Peter Travers Think Sex and the City without the sex. | 5 | |
