Now that HBO’s Girls has finally premiered, the hate can officially begin. Anything that had that much critical hype was bound that have a strong backlash. One of the critiques I was prepared to read/hear was the lack of diversity on the show.
This was how the show should have ended (I won’t get into my feelings about the series finale again).
If you watched the show, I don’t know how you could have hated the movie. I wasn’t enamored with the show but liked it for the most part (except for the end). But the movie was enjoyable, albeit predictable (everything ended the way I thought it would based on the trailer). It was a little too long as they tried to cram a season’s worth of storylines into a little over 2 hours.
The first hour of the movie was like Fashion Porn to all the women in the crowd (I don’t think I’ve ever been to a movie that was sold out and had so few men* attending and I’m no stranger to chick flicks).
They better not make a sequel. There is no way they can extend their stories any further.
* My “Man Card” has finally been revoked because I saw Sex and The City before I saw Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. This was a long time coming.
