we attend a screening of sex and the city last week. neither of us watch the tv show, but r worked on it and received tickets to the cast and crew screening. i wasn't impressed at the beginning but then grew to enjoy the rest of the movie. as r pointed out, there were a lot of classic storytelling elements that made the movie good: the romantic ending to miranda and steve's story, the cinderella tie-in, charlotte's inevitable confrontation that turns out quite differently than she had imagined. also, the sets look fantastic!
yesterday, we saw indiana jones and the kingdom of the crystal skull. i have only seen the first indiana jones and must've missed a lot of references to the previous movies. it was a string of action sequences, and i found it enjoyable. it's no brilliant plot. the crystal skull actually looks kind of cheesy. but isn't that the point of summer action movies? i think cate blanchett's performance made it worth watching.
more to come as the season passes...
