 You didn't like The Visitor that much? I thought it was the best so far this year! I also see we agreed exactly on Sex and the City.

Update for the Unrated cut. It's longer and it works much better on DVD. And it actually takes full advantage of the R-rating.

 You didn't like The Visitor that much? I thought it was the best so far this year! I also see we agreed exactly on Sex and the City.  Well, I won't lie. I did find The Visitor a bit disappointing. I thought the story occasionally stepped into some ridiculous territory, and I think that kept me from really connecting. Loved the performances, though. Overall, I'd still recommend it. Glad you liked it, though! And yeah, SATC just didn't do much for me. I enjoyed it as an entertainment vehicle, but I was just plain irritated by most of it.
