The theater packed with screaming girls in stilettos was worth the price of admission. The Minneapolis girls pretended to be from Miami for one night and the crowd was rowdy, fun, and responsive to the movie.

There are also great cameos by Liza Minnelli (performing Single Ladies) and Miley Cyrus. Goodness.

Dude, this review is what got me off the couch to go see SATC. Honestly. I’m a major fan, but have been discouraged by the negative reviews. But you and your blog are super funny and so I trust you. And you know what? I really liked it. People don’t know what they’re talking about.
Buhaha! Thank you!
