Despite the Labels, SATC Movie is a Canal Street Knockoffnew

Trust me, there's precious little to give away other than labels, for though Sex and the City is every bit as busy as its HBO progenitor was, it's mostly plotless, not to mention pointless.

It's Not the TV Show, but the 'Sex and the City' Movie Still Deliversnew

It's been four long years since we last saw Sex and the City, and boy, has it gained weight -- about two hours' worth. Clocking in at a gargantuan 148 minutes, the feature-length addition to the beloved HBO series feels a tad long. (I mean, I love Sex as much as the next person, but two and a half straight hours of it is going to leave someone sore.)

The 'Sex and the City' Movie isn't Egregious, It's Worsenew

Like that bottle of whiskey stereotypical newspaper editors keep in their desk drawer, Carrie Bradshaw is the Barbie doll recessed in the handbag of contemporary white-collar women -- she fortified their gaudiest Cinderella dreams through weekly televised teasings of possibility.

Isn't It Funny When 'Smart People' Do Stupid Things?new

On the surface of their new film, first-time filmmakers Mark Poirier and Noam Murro are in danger of stepping into all the cliche pitfalls of the genre. Fortunately, an intelligent script and a fine cast conspire to make this a sharper-than-average slice of indie satire.

'Smart People' is All Brains, No Heartnew

Smart People is about what can happen when the mind is divorced from the heart and spirit.

Solid Acting Helps 'Smart People'new

The cast is understated in painting a portrait of an unhappy, too-clever family in suburban Pittsburgh, writer/director Noam Murro hits several choice moments of sweet, sharp, and melancholy humor.

Oh, Joynew

This holiday film of dangling plot lines is hard to like, harder still to hate.

Stalin the Family

A Meet the Parents retread with the kind of giant, kooky-but-loving brood without which holiday comedies wouldn't exist, The Family Stone will have you slapping your forehead, not your knee.
