The Devil Wears Prada

时尚女魔头观后感英文版

The preview of The Devil Wears Prada was brilliant:it introduced all the major players and set up the premise nicely.Best of all,it was how the movie actually begins,so it didn't give away anything.Fortunately,the movie itself matches the preview in both tone and substance,making Prada an enjoyable experience.

Andy (Hathaway) moves to New York City to be a journalist,and her break might very well be working for Runway,the ultimate fashion magazine in the world.Well,not exactly what she sets out to do — she becomes the second assistant to Miranda Priestly (Streep),the ultra-demanding editor-in-chief.Her job involves doing Miranda's errands such as picking up her dry-cleaning and coffee.Besides,Andy has no interest in fashion or office politics.Immediately,she is a fish out of water.Miranda's first assistant,Emily (Blunt),doesn't think much of Andy either.Miranda,however,thinks Andy is smart (and "fat") and different,somebody for her to groom.

Frustrated with her demanding and unreasonable boss,Andy seeks advice from Nigel (Tucci),who helps her transform into something that Miranda could take more seriously.It works.As Andy's confidence improves,her ambition to win Miranda's trust and approval becomes stronger.She starts to cater to Miranda's every need,ridiculous schedule and demand at the expense of her own personal life,jeopardizing her relationship with beau,Nate (Grenier).Before she knows it,she's becoming more and more like Miranda.

Streep (The Prairie Home Companion) has found a delicious role in Miranda Priestly.Her portrayal of the ice queen is perfection,what with her dead glares and a voice that never rises above certain level and yet filled with barbs.You simply can't take your eyes off of her.In comparison,Hathaway (Brokeback Mountain) is slight and obviously inexperienced.However,her genuine disposition and earnestness are very fetching,and her awkwardness around Streep is actually an asset to the role.

Blunt (Irresistible) is perfectly cast as Miranda's shallow but amiable first assistant,Emily.She manages to turn in a fun and nuanced performance,showing us a nice,mean edge but also vulnerability.Tucci (Lucky Number Slevin) has a great time playing the flamboyant but kind art director,even though the character is rather stereotypical and one-dimensional.Grenier (Entourage) has a nice supporting role as Andy's sweet and understanding boyfriend.Baker (Something New) plays Christian Thompson,a charming author with an ulterior motive.Rounding out the cast are Thoms (Rent) and Sommer (Death 4 Told) in minor roles as Andy's best friends and conscience.

The script by McKenna (Law of Attraction) has a light and fluffy feel matching the tone of Weisberger's best-selling semi-autobiographical novel.The Devil Wears Prada is a satire,an exposé of the brutal and superficial world of fashion (and publishing) in the guise of a coming-of-age story.The observations are generally sharp and witty,but also superficial and cartoonish (the jabs at wafer-thin models or insecure fashion designers are trite) at times.The story itself isn't all that fresh,and is quite predictable.What is fun about the film is the subject matter and the character of Miranda Priestly.Streep is a joy to watch.

Director Frankel (Entourage,Sex and the City) is mostly known for his television work.He instills a good sense of humor in this production,and the pace is impeccable.Mostly,he seems to stay out of his actors' way and let them do their job.Streep,for example,makes you believe that she is the devil incarnate but in fact,she is much of a slave herself to the real devil:fame,power and fortune.The question Andy has to ask — "Who are you and what do you want in life?" — isn't really that deep or profound or earth-shattering.The good thing is that the film doesn't take itself too seriously.Everything is handled in a tongue-in-cheek fashion.That makes it a devil of a good time.

Stars:Meryl Streep,Anne Hathaway,Emily Blunt,Stanley Tucci,Adrian Grenier,Tracie Thoms,Rich Sommer,Simon Baker,Daniel Sunjata

Director:David Frankel

Writers:Aline Brosh McKenna (based on Lauren Weisberger's novel)

Distributor:20th Century Fox

MPAA Rating:PG-13 for some sensuality

Running Time:109 minutes

Yes,the acting was wonderful.Hathaway and Streep were great,and the chemistry between Andy and Emily really made you believe it.However,the end of the movie leaves you with an "eh" feeling.You don't walk out feeling happy,scared,sentimental,or anything.To be honest,the plot seemed much like Princess Diaries for awhile,and then had an ethical twist at the end.And if you haven't read the book,you sit there wondering if Nate is going to be mailing Andy grilled cheese sandwiches from Boston,as they both have jobs in different states.The biggest disappointment is the comprimising of values in that Andy does not stick to who she is,and continues to dress in overpriced clothing--and loses a dress size when she is already very healthy looking.This movie makes anyone who is a size bigger than 6 feel fat and not worthy of nice clothing.Overall,the acting was great,the morals were horrible,and the plot leaves you unfulfilled.I wish that this amazing cast would have chosen a better script.

To be yourself ---The Devil Wears Prada

On the way to dream and happiness, how can wekeep our original purpose and innocence when facing the objection, others’ viewand the blind following environment, really make me think heavily. Through that movie, we know that to be ajournalist, Andy gave up her opportunity to go to Stanford University and theoriginal purpose she went to runway being Miranda’s assistant was help her openlots of door.

And at first she laughed at her colleague and kept her own style.Her courage and innocence for her dream really make me respect on her. However, as a series of things happening, shechanged gradually. Fashioned clothes made her acquaint lots of different people,serious attitude to work put her into an important position, meanwhile, busywork made her get distant with her friends and family. What’s worse, she evenforgot to write. I still remember that plot: when Miranda’s call coming, shetried her best to get a flight for Miranda, when getting off the taxi, she evenforgot her dear father.

When being pointed out of her change by her father, herfriends, her boyfriend and her colleague, “I have no choice” has become hermost powerful excuse.The more she devoted herself to her “beneficial” job, thefurther she’s away her close and her original dream. Fortunately, she realizedher missingand was be herself at last. The dialogue between Andy and Nate“I turned myback on my friends and family and everything Ibelieved in, and, that, that forwhat?”“For shoes and shirts and jackets and belts” which impresses me a lotshows off the losing of Andy when she worked for Miranda and also the losing ofmost people in modern society.

It’s wonderful to pursue our dream and happiness,however, in the materialistic age, wemay always be lost in money, power and glory. I believe that all the officialhope to serve public at first but as time goes on, some of them forget theirdream and become the one he ever hates deeply. We hope to live a happy life,but what a happy life means? Harmony family, close friends, healthy body, goodincome, and what’s more, doing things you love. The problem is that when tryinghard to achieve those we are likely to be buried in the busy work for great incomeand power which seems to be the guarantee, getting away from our love, losingour health, suffering the pain from the boring and disgusting job. Just like Mirandainthis movie, resplendent and confident in public, but when it comes to herprivate life, the dragon lady is so tender and sensitive. What I talked above is not mean to criticizeanyone in that movie or any kind of people in real life. Everyone has hischoice on the way of life, his own style of life and the pursuit of life. Whateverhappens, to be yourself can always make you happy and enjoy the life, just likeNate and Nigel.
