Reviews
When Streep is absent from the screen, however, the interest factor plummets.
Comedy doesn’t get much blacker -- or more brilliant -- than this.
This smart and funny creation is not just wish-fulfilment for the ''Sex'' And The City generation -- it’s a Wall Street for the 21st century.
The whole thing is humbug, a giant ad for the industry it affects to critique.
Enjoyable, smartly directed comedy with a witty script and superb performances from Streep and Hathaway.
The real joy is in a smoulderingly sinister turn by Meryl Streep as Andy's egomaniacal boss.
An ideal movie for DVD: you can pick and choose moments and lines to revisit while ignoring, or trying to ignore, the thematic compromises, hectoring impulses, and structural handicaps that start to engulf the film.
Streep is a far better reason to see The Devil Wears Prada than the movie itself.
The story itself falls too frequently into the standard cliches of the awkward-girl-turns-into-a-swan-thanks-to-an-unexpected-fairy-godmother formula.
Funciona por el talento de sus actrices, por lo inteligente de su guión y por no pretender ser nada fuera de lo común. Fue una de las sorpresas del año pasado y con justa razón.
There are some witty lines and pretty outfits, but when it comes to diabolical satire, The Devil Wears Prada merely strikes a pose.
An insipid script by Laws of Attraction co-writer Aline Brosh McKenna packs a few droll one-liners, but mostly the film only aspires to its chick-lit roots.
...there's simply no denying the effectiveness of virtually every aspect of the production...
If you have ever held an office job, you probably have encountered the "boss from hell" and Streep manages to make the character both amusing, scary and touching (sometimes simultaneously). She alone makes the film worth seeing.
Makes one pine for any comparable '50s working-girl comedy (or, for that matter, 1988's Working Girl).
Moralista, sí. Predecible, un poco. Pero divertida, ingeniosa, ácida y exquisitamente disfrutable... especialmente por el extraordinario trabajo de una verdadera deidad de la actuación: la Sra. Merryl Streep.
If some sixtysomething nerd who read books about galactic empires and hasn't even touched a fashion magazine can love this movie, anyone can.
A film for those over the age of 14 is hard to come by this time of year. Don't let "The Devil Wears Prada" sneak by without giving it a look.
