Critics Consensus

A rare film that surpasses the quality of its source novel, this Devil is a witty expose of New York's fashion scene, with Meryl Streep in top form and Anne Hathaway more than holding her own.

Deborah Ross

The Spectator

It's Meryl's movie, everyone says, and in a way it is. She gives a furiously funny performance as a furiously nasty bit of work... But, as I said earlier, scenes without her suffer horribly.

An agreeably shallow comedy.

Lessons of Darkness

Makes one pine for any comparable '50s working-girl comedy (or, for that matter, 1988's Working Girl).

Rated: C

Solzy at the Movies

When you think of the final years of Fox before the Disney acquisition, The Devil Wears Prada is one of the standout films--they don't make them like they used to.

Rated: 5/5

If looks can truly kill, Meryl Streep's Miranda may very well be the fashion industry's most notorious serial killer.

Rated: 3.0/4.0

Herald Sun (Australia)

This one goes out to anyone suffering the whims of a tyrannical employer. For you, this will be so much more than a fun, fashion-conscious comedy. It will be therapy.

Rated: 3.5/5

A recent college graduate lands a job at the prestigious Runway magazine, becoming the assistant to the devilish editor, Miranda Priestly. This was one of those movies that’s been on my watchlist for a while that I finally got around to watching. I really enjoyed it, despite knowing nothing about the fashion world. The comedy felt natural, realistic, and not over-the top. I loved the performances from Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Stanley Tucci. It’s a great film that explores the sacrifices people make in the pursuit of success, as well as themes of ambition, work ethic, and personal growth. ”The Devil Wears Prada” is a funny and entertaining film with some good heartfelt moments mixed in. It’s definitely worth a watch if you’ve never seen it before!

Meryl Streep really outdid herself. A great movie which displays dilemmas that everyone goes through when they try to seek a work life balance.

The Devil Wears Prada totally surprised me. I’m not really into fashion, but this movie made me appreciate it in a way I never expected — both as an art form and as an industry that influences way more than just style. The storyline was super engaging and kept me hooked the whole time. And as much as it pains me to admit it… I actually ended up liking Miranda Priestly. Her arrogance was brutal, but there was something oddly admirable about her power and presence. My only gripe is that it felt like the movie ended too soon — I would’ve loved to see a bit more closure between Andy and Miranda. That final smirk was subtle (and probably her version of a big gesture), but a more definitive "happy ending" would've made it feel more complete.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

My comfort movie!! I love everything about this movie. From the music, to the transition scenes, to the dialogues, to Meryl Streep's performance, all the way to the cute dumb look the boyfriend gets on his face. I have not one bad thing to say about this movie. If I could only watch one movie for the rest of my life, this would be it.
