Storyline Two years have passed since Carrie Bradshaw finally bagged John "Mr. Big" Preston, the man she was always meant to be with. Just as her friend Charlotte must deal with her young daughter's "terrible two's", Carrie must deal with her relationship taking a turn for the worse - Big likes to watch old black-and-white movies on TV and eat take-out food, which prevents Carrie from feeling like the free-wheeling party girl she used to be. Meanwhile, Miranda copes with a new boss that can't handle an intelligent, powerful woman, and Samantha works a public relations angle that gets the fashionable foursome an all-expense-paid trip to Abu Dhabi.

Trivia:
It was erroneously reported that due to a product placement deal with the studio Carrie Bradshaw would own a Hewlett-Packard laptop instead of her ubiquitous Macintosh laptop. Bradshaw's laptop is the same PowerBook G4 seen in the previous film.

When Carrie has her meaningful discussion with Mr. Big in their apartment, she sits down in a chair and crosses her left leg over the right one. Uncrossing her legs, she throws a cushion onto an opposite chair. In the wide shot that follows, her legs are still crossed.

Everyone knows you don't hire a hot nanny, it's the law! Carrie Bradshaw:
Yeah, Jude Law.
User Review
Stinky and Ugly
Rating: 2/10
I AM female. I love to watch a good chic-flick. However, I was so
disappointed. This movie has little to offer except constantly changing
'bizarre' costuming presented as high fashion and thoroughly
embarrassing 'ugly American' scenes of over-indulged, entitled and
rudely written characters. I went to the theater to enjoy a fun movie.
I came away shaking my head. The movie was disrespectful to me as an
American woman. Who acts like Samantha when in a foreign country, the
Middle East or otherwise? As I watched the characters make total asses
of themselves I was embarrassed for them simply sitting in the theater.
It's no wonder other countries believe Americans lack respect for
everyone and everything. Hollywood apparently does and wants everyone
to know it. Unfortunately, the general public is judged by
Hollywood--the American delivery system. It's not worth the money to
see it. If you can get it on DVD for a buck, then judge for yourself.
