Critics Consensus

Straining under a thin plot stretched to its limit by a bloated running time, Sex and the City 2 adds an unfortunate coda to the long-running HBO series.

The Indian Express

The sequel, Sex and the City 2, wipes any urges towards mirth. You watch in mounting disbelief as the disgruntled girls ( not women, never) come on to whinge about every single thing that's in their lives.

Rated: 1/5

Though the sequel doesn't pack as much juice as the original movie, Sex And The City 2 doesn't leave your martini glass empty.

Rated: B

Deep Focus Review

King allows these women no room for growth, even within a two-and-a-half-hour movie. They all end up just as they were, ever obsessed with surfaces and labels, which is disappointing.

Rated: 1/4

It's the only part of covering the show I dreaded for good reason. It's bad. Really bad

It’s far from perfect, with the girls losing their original depth and becoming mere caricatures—but fans of the series will still find enjoyment, despite the mess.

It's Terrible. The major strike against it there really isn't a main plot point. It's made up of subplots. This results in terrible editing and pacing. This drags more and more than the first did despite being he same runtime. Big & Carrie are only in this together about 20% of the movie and they don't have the same chemistry as the first for some reason. Everything acting, music, and surprisingly cinematography wise is just ok. They waste a beautiful location on dumb pointless gags that never add up to anything. There really is no climax to this movie either. The subplots just kind of resolve and some forced in wild antics happen in the last 20 minutes because it wasn't exciting enough I guess so they had to add something in a reshoot. It feels so pointless all the last minute gags. Even if you like the show stay away from this. It's completely pointless and a terrible sequel and film.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
