An agreeably shallow comedy.
Anne Hathaway is Patricia Field's latest fashion victim in this limp semi-satire.
The whole thing is humbug, a giant ad for the industry it affects to critique.
Top CriticThe Devil Wears Prada is two films in one: a caustic, energetic satire of the fashion world and a cautionary melodrama.
The biggest problem with the movie, however, is that it tries to make a big deal out of a subject that has been beaten to death in the tabloids and the media.
The Devil Wears Prada is primarily an occasion to celebrate Meryl Streep as a grand comedienne.
If Hathaway's Andy drives the pedestrian narrative -- idealistic girl learns the value of staying true to herself and her "real" friends; snore -- then Streep is the movie's soul.
Nimbly assembled and tartly performed
An ironic measure of the film's research into the fashion-mag scene is the fact that there's almost no journalism in it.
A movie I daresay I may have enjoyed even more than the book. Don't tell my high school English teacher.
No Princess Diaries here, but royal fun.
There are some must-have luxuries here, first of which is Meryl Streep's fascinating performance as the fearsome Miranda Priestly.
The Devil Wears Prada isn't a brilliant film, but it certainly is an entertaining one.
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.

I now love this movie and call it one of my favourite movies its funny, entertaining and just great to watch, it has a great cast and just thoroughly enjoyable, i have to say i absolutely love Meryl Streep in this movie, she is fantastic and that strong character scariness she had going on was really attractive!
Fantastic movie and being a person who hates fashion and everything about as its just not interesting you can still very much enjoy this movie!
