"I'm only one stomach flu away from my ideal weight."

[loracs]

The most memorable line from "The Devil Wears Prada", which we went to see this afternoon.

 stonebender & dbubley liked it well enough,   clever_doberman was more lukewarm about it and I believe that is 106 minutes I will never get back.   I didn't care about one person in the film.  Meryl Streep was a bitch of a boss and she did an excellent job of it, but even that performance didn't save the movie for me.  If you're into fashion, there's a lot of eye candy.

Eh! I only liked it because I went in with rather low expectations to begin with. I only knew what Prada was because I'd seen Sex In the City. I figured it wasn't my kind of movie, but Meryl Streep might be good. The movie was more predictible than I thought. Meryl Streep was good at being a bitch, but the movie wasn't nearly as good as I thought it might be, even with my low expectations, I just wasn't disappointed. I think they relied too much on Meryl Streep. The boyfriend had beautiful eyes. I did think to myself, "Well, at least it's not an Austin Powers movie.

I liked the line where the bitch coworker whines bitterly at the heroine, "You don't even deserve it! Why, why you eat carbs!"
