if you love the movie, you love this 
2008-09-01
For any of you whining and moaning and nagging that it isn't like the show, get a clue. It says "From the Original Motion Picture". For anyone confusing "HBO: Home Box Office" for an ACTUAL box office, apologies, but the only "motion picture" of SATC is the one that just came out in 2008 in actual movie theatres.
If you want the tv show theme song, nope, you aren't going to get it here.
If you want La Belle et Le Bus Boy from the Paris scenes in Season Six, nope, you aren't going to get it here. If you want a CD that has a Fergie song on it that you think is g.l.a.m., well, you might be disappointed on that too.
If you ACTUALLY WENT AND SAW THE MOVIE, you will know what you are in for. The songs on this CD are the exact same as the movie, including the over-the-top-yet-perfect orchestral rendition of the SATC theme song.
If you went to the movie and loved that the songs helped catch you in the emotion of the moments of the scenes, you will love this CD. All of the songs on this CD are quite intense, either with the sad soul-croonings of Auld Lang Syne or the jumpiness of Fergie's Labels of Love (great intro to the movie though). It's hard not to feel overcome with various emotions (How Deep is Your Love, Heart of the Matter and How Do you Mend A Broken Heart) and joys (It's Amazing and All Dressed in Love) during each of the overwhelmingly fun and/or poignant tunes.
If you did NOT see the movie but you liked the show and figure this will be a great substitute until you do see the movie, you will likely feel lost in the beats and dramatic tempos. Don't bother getting this CD until you've at least seen the movie.
Plus, I am not saying everyone who loved the movie should love this CD. For some, they will love the movie plot but find that the music was melodramatic at times and not worthy of purchasing the soundtrack. That's fine. That makes for a legit review.
Just don't give it a low review and whine that the Movie Soundtrack CD didn't have music from the show on it. That's lame.
Really, it's all quite common sense. It would be like me getting the soundtrack from the most recent Batman flick and then whining endlessly that it didn't have those '50s bee-bop tunes from the old black-and-white TV show. I'd be silly to expect such things!
... and apologies for being harsh, but really, I'm disgruntled by the frequency with which people leave negative reviews for their own mistakes and for ordering the wrong item. That issue lies within the reviewer and nothing else.

Good Buy 2008-07-28
My girlfriend had been waiting to put this CD in the car. She enjoyed it from the opening track to the final beat. If you loved the show or the movie, this is a must-have.
satc cd 
2008-07-24
Saw the movie and then purchased this. It's okay- some of the music is too loud for me.
Feels like I'm watching the movie all over again! 2008-07-11
This CD was amazing! Listening to it made me feel like I was watching the movie all over again. And the last song on the disc was beautifully written and makes me love Sex and the City all over again!
worthless purchase 2008-07-09
I purchase quite a few CD's but I'd advise you to skip this one unless you're into an enchanced version of the original theme from the TV series.
My music tastes are eclectic and well rounded, but I would have been better off donating the cost of this CD to charity instead of wasting my money.
Hudson soars, but Fergie crashes & burns 
2008-07-09
Aside from the amazing end-credit song by Jennifer Hudson, which features a stunning lung-busting vocal performance and bodes well for Hudson's long-awaited debut CD (hello, where is it two years later?!), there's not much else to recommend on the soundtrack - Fergie's cut is embarrassingly bad and unlistenable, the Nina Simone remix is pedestrian and can be found on other compilations, and most of the Bee Gees remakes are tepid at best. Buy Jennifer's single and skip this.
So Much Better Than Expected 2008-07-08
This soundtrack is my favorite listen in a long, long time. Surprisingly, even the Fergie track has grown on me. The entire album is fantastic. It won't disappoint and is fitting for many moods.
Sex and the City orginal motion picture soundtrack 2008-07-07
I love the first two songs. After that it go downhill, the whole CD are the real original but the order of the songs should make some adjusment. If you serve all the good things from the beginning as an appetizer then your entree and other will be tastless. I have been playing the first two songs since it is really really good.
They should add the original Sex and the City TV show track to make it perfect for anyone.
seems to be more 2008-07-06
The music is directly from the movie, and it is good. It says something on the jacket about an additional CD. Many good titles on the CD.
