This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

One of the best movies by Woody Allen even if he himself did neither write it nor directed it nor starred in it, or, for that matter, has no direct role in making the movie whatsoever (as far as I know).I love almost all movies by Woody Allen and I love this imitation simply because it is not only an excellent imitation but also an excellent movie on its own.I wonder if there was a secret collaboration between Allen and David Frankel. I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case and what we are facing is an insider joke.Maybe in 1995 Allen was not yet ready to move his movies away from New York, and this is the product,

Gwen (Sarah Jessica Parker) has a steady boyfriend and a great job at an advertising agency. But, that's not good enough for her parents. At her younger sister's wedding, the duo hound Gwen about setting a date for her own nuptials. To make peace, Gwen and her boyfriend go ahead and mark the calendar. However, in short order, Gwen learns that her own mother is having an affair with a male nurse (Antonio Banderas). And, that's not all. Perhaps there are more family members indulging in extra-marital activities. Does Gwen's potential marriage have a snowball's chance in Miami? This is a terrific film, very funny and very clever. The script is awesome, as, for example, Gwen asks her mother why she is involved with a nurse, "you mean, not even a doctor?". That's just one line but the movie is loaded with them, to the point of infinite joy. Parker has her finest hour, even considering where she has gone since the film was made. Her Gwen is lovely, funny, brilliant and acerbic. The rest of the cast is also quite wonderful, with Mia Farrow, Gil Bellows, Carla Gugino, Kevin Pollack, Jeremy Piven and more. The Miami setting is exotic and beautiful, the costumes are first-rate, and the production values are mighty. If you have somehow let this film pass you by, rectify that mistake. Head to the library or video store at once, even if you are supposed to be working, and sit down to laughs and laughs in abundance.

This is Sex and the City set in Miami. Sarah Jessica Parker does exactly the same thing she does when she's Carrie. Sit at a laptop, go on dates (even though she's engaged) and ponder about life whilst comparing it to friends and families.It's like if Sex and The City and The Royal tenenbaums met each other in a more realistic way.Antonio Banderas, Mia Farrow and Jordan Marcus are very entertaing also. However Naomi Campbell isn't. So thank god her screen time is just under 5 minutes.It's a good entertaining movie though and funny in parts. I recommend it.

This is a decent movie but WOW is it derivative, SJ Parker is playing basically a female Alvie Singer from Annie Hall, especially the monologue at the end is almost a word for word reworking of the one at the end of "Annie," substituting "Miami" for "needing the eggs."This character is also a bit similar to Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City, this may be how she got that job...
