Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

It's a bit frustrating really because I've seen Cashmere Mafia before in somewhere.I've seen it in Lipstick Jungle and Sex & The City. What is the point of trying to duplicate a series only having changed the cast? It's the same drama all the time, wife gets cheated on, husband and wife have marital problems like husband gets offered job to be away all the time, lady turns gay hooray!, breaking up, getting back together, the ups and downs of love lives. Four friends supporting each other. It's such a cliché.It's also the same city! Sex & The City was set in NYC, so was Lipstick Jungle and now Cashmere Mafia. You know, it doesn't always have to be in the same city, take a look at Desperate Housewives, its set in a quiet place with GREAT story-lines, not usual everyday boring ones.Come on really, its the same characters!! One who has family problems with children, one who is the smart and educated one, one who is alone and looking for the right guy and one who is witty and a dare devil.Its just the same thing in Cashmere Mafia with a lot of annoying clichés.On the positive side of Cashmere Mafia, the idea of them being a cashmere mafia was clever, the clothes were outstanding and the story-lines kind of changed a bit every now and then so it wasn't that boring. But from the minute I watched this I already knew why this was canceled SOOOOOO early. Take a good long look at Lipstick Jungle. Didn't last very long did it? What makes the producers think this is gonna last four seasons or more? But I kind of enjoyed CM, it was a little fun and quite entertaining, the acting was pretty good. To choose between Lipstick Jungle and Cashmere Mafia I would HAVE to choose Lipstick Jungle.Not that impressive but has good potential, but I just HAVE to give this low score.5.5/10

I was surprised at first to see this NYC Cashmere Mafia... Great team, interesting story.. But - ain't it too soon to make this kind of film cloning of Sex and the city?Same plot - 4 successful good looking women, Same age group - 35-45 Same place - Manhattan Same intrigue - sex, men, job struggle, to be single or married Same target audienceBut finally - why not? I really miss the Sex and the city and really like this new project, although there certainly miss the secret charm of the original, The Cashmere mafia is well done and interesting. I really like the four actresses, the styling, Manhattan and the special serious spice I feel in this film.

Four gal pals living in the Big Apple with successful jobs, fabulous lives, and drama to boot. This show sounds utterly similar to that of another show by Darren Starr, Sex and the City. The hit TV show that has won the hearts of many cosmopolitan drinking fashionistas the world over. And who could replace those four girls and their interestingly hilarious escapades and taboo issues? No one could do Sex and the City better than Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda. Lucky for Mia, Zoe, Juliet, and Caitlin their show is called Cashmere Mafia. While the TV show hasn't covered issues as that of SATC, it does offer a new insight into the world of women. Not only can women just be portrayed as the sensual, sultry, sexual beings, but something more. In Cashmere Mafia, they show that women cannot only be sexy, but also deeply passionate about work, family, and relationships. In a constantly changing society, where once women were valued for just their pretty face and social lifestyle, women are reaching new heights. I hope that this show does become wildly successful, but even more, I hope this show empowers women everywhere to strive for more and to set their sights higher.I was and still am a fan of SATC and while I swear allegiance to it, I am open to something different, something new. While Cashmere Mafia covers similar topics that can be covered in most television shows today, they weave the stories to make them delightfully amusing. So for all the Sex and the City fans, the ones who own every season, who order cosmos when they're out with their girlfriends and wear high heels when they're going to a BBQ, it's time to try something new. Maybe it's time to trade in those cosmopolitans for wine and champagne.

I've just watched both the pilot and the second episode.So far, I like the series. The second episode was better than the first, and the show definitely has potential to do better than it's currently doing.The four main characters are successful women, but they all have their flaws. Sometimes, the show does make me wonder if these women work - the show is also supposed to be focused on their work lives, but we do not get to see them work very much. (Mostly, it's just been Mia working.) The chemistry between the four best friends could be better, but considering it's only the first few episodes... chemistry can be developed over time. (The actresses are great in their own roles - it's only when they're together that you may question if they're really best friends.)Basically, while I do like this show, it could be a lot better - and hopefully audiences will give it a chance! (There were several other series that didn't get a warm reception initially, but in the end turned out to be hits.)
