'Sex' Sucksnew

The filmmakers behind Sex and the City 2 want you to think the movie is about female empowerment, and how to wield it. It's actually about totally vacuous assholes wearing clothes that will look idiotic in 10 years. The first film adapted from the HBO series, a show I enjoyed, was a mixed bag.

Clocking in at a gargantuan 148 minutes, the feature-length addition to the beloved HBO series feels a tad long.
