Devil Wears Prada

Pros: Nice clothing.
Cons: Flat, detestable characters; this isn't the publishing world I worked in...

In some ways, I was looking forward to watching the film adaptation of The Devil Wears Prada. Set in New York City's worlds of fashion and publishing, it's a close look at the mayhem of when a girl from the homey midwest arrives smack dab in the ...

Pros: Streep. Hathaway. Tucci. Entertaining movie.
Cons: A few slow places. I didn't really like Andy's friends.

I have never really been interested in high fashion. I have seen some pieces that looked really nice, but there is no way I could afford them. If by some way I could afford some of them, I seriously doubt I would ever find any of those things in my size ...

Pros: Good acting (particularly Blunt and Tucci), often funny
Cons: Script could have done with a little sharpening up

The Devil Wears Prada starts with a young woman, Andy (really Andrea) Sachs (Anne Hathaway) preparing for a job interview. We see her getting ready, with a less than perfect sense of style, while other women in the city are also preparing – ...

Pros: Streep, Hathaway, music, clothes
Cons: Not everyone in the fashion world is this b-itchy, are they?

I have to admit it. I went to this movie for one primary reason. I wanted to see the latest fashions. Wrong! I went to the film because I thought the trailers showed promise and I believe that Meryl Street may be the best living actress in the world. ...

Pros: look, cast (especially those comfortable in hell: Streep, Blunt, Tucci)
Cons: predictable

Glenn Close and Meryl Streep are two formidable actresses "of a certain age" (Close was born in 1947, Streep in 1949) who have won acclaim in an impressive range of roles. Each recently starred as a fashionable, successful, and devilishly demanding boss ...

Pros: Very cute story, with terrific performances by Streep and Hathaway.
Cons: The jerky boyfriend.

The Devil Wears Prada is one of those movies that I think most people will enjoy. With an engaging story and two terrific actresses (Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway), there's a lot to enjoy here.The plot is a simple one. Andy Sachs ...

Pros: Excellent cast, acting, and storyline.
Cons: It's not going to appeal to all audiences.

My wife finally roped me into watching The Devil Wears Prada (2006); she states she wanted to watch it because she has always been a Meryl Streep's fan and had heard a lot about this movie believing it was a humorous corporate fairytale. I agreed ...

Pros: Streep, Tucci, some funny moments. Hathaway anchors the story with heart.

Cons: Predictable plot and writing. Humor falls a bit flat in places.

Midway through The Devil Wears Prada, the 2006 film directed by David Frankel and starring Meryl Streep, I began to experience the odd sensation that I had seen this movie before. I hadn't, actually, but something about it kept reminding me ...

Pros: Tucci, Streep, Blunt, some interesting characters, insight to fashion industry
Cons: cookie-cutter plot, too predictable

We have seen the basic storyline before; as a girl tries to make it big in the city, taking on a position that is over her head, and almost succumbing to the beast that is the industry. But, The Devil Wears Prada tries to makes its way out of the ...

Pros: Smart, funny, chick flick that can be enjoyed by all (including this guy!)
Cons: Didn't care for the ending myself.

and he's oh so good and he's oh so fine, he's a dedicated follower of fashion, so sang the Kinks many years ago. I'll confess, that I am not a dedicated follower of fashion, although you wouldn't catch me dead in a polyester suit or tie. Every ...

Pros: Streep, fun coming-of-age story
Cons: romantic subplot

When I started watching < b>Ugly Betty last year, it reminded me of The Devil Wears Prada, a movie I'd heard a lot about but hadn't seen. I finally amended that this weekend, and as I watched, nearly every ...

Pros: some funny moments and excellent performances
Cons: syrupy story where dark comedy would have been better, one-liners that need a tune-up

The Devil Wears Prada is three films in one, mostly because it copies from two other films, each of which had a different point to make. The result is a three-headed beast that churns up laughter, moments of poignance and passable entertainment - but ...

Pros: Meryl Streep; Some amusing wit
Cons: Old cliches; Old theme; Doesn't examine the industry like it should have

The world is full of young, determined professionals who work hard and dedicate themselves to achieving their dreams. Some of these individuals never reach their ultimate goals while others manage to achieve what they want, but often at a price. This ...

Pros: Fun movie, lots of nice clothes, Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep
Cons: Perhaps not such a universal appeal, although my husband did want to see it...

When trying to decide on a movie to see recently, the only one that got halfway decent reviews was The Devil Wears Prada. Based on a novel by Lauren Weisberger, I thought this might be the right blend of “chick-flick”/comedy that I needed. I ...

Pros: Fashion. Meryl. Adrian.
Cons: Strayed from book - irritated me.

Preamble Good Afternoon Movie Fans! I've been waiting for this date - Friday, June 30 - for what seems like forever. Yes ladies and gentlemen...it's the national release of the movie, The Devil Wears Prada. And unless you've ...
