In der Modewelt New York Citys, wo ein schlecht gewähltes Outfit schon das Ende aller Karriereträume bedeuten kann, ist das Fashion-Magazin "Runway" eine Institution. Den letzten Feinschliff bekommt die einflussreiche Zeitschrift durch die fein manikürte Hand Miranda Priestlys - der mächtigsten Frau in der Modewelt. Ein Job als Mirandas Assistentin könnte der frisch vom College kommenden grauen Maus Andy Sachs die Türen zur Welt des Journalismus öffnen - auch wenn Mode nicht gerade ihr Metier ist. Als Andy den Job, für den Millionen Frauen morden würden, bekommt, ahnt sie noch nicht, welche Hölle ihr bevorsteht. (VOX)

Eine altbekannte Geschichte. Aus einem braven Mädchen wird eine potenzielle Schlampe, die hier und da eine Affäre hat und langsam ihre Freunde verliert. Schließlich kommt es jedoch zu einer intimen Wendung, und sie lässt alles hinter sich und wird wieder das kleine verschreckte brave Mädchen. Dieser Film bietet nichts Neues, aber er hat bekannte Gesichter und schöne Kleider. Meryl ist hier wie immer mega-perfekt. Ich gebe dem Film 6 von 10 Punkten, aber ich empfehle ihn trotzdem sehr. ()
A run-of-the-mill movie with an uninteresting story. If it weren’t for that phenomenal creature Miranda Priestly - played by Meryl Streep who obviously really enjoyed herself - then you would most likely forget everything you see in this movie immediately. A harmless and inoffensive movie that, thanks to Streep, gives the impression of being something a little more than a mere romantic comedy about how an American girl learns the right moral values. If the picture had been all about Miranda instead, it could have been excellent. ()
Despite feminists insisting relentlessly that there are no differences between men and women, I believe that this particular film is enjoyed more by women (and by men with a tendency towards fashion design and hairstyling). However, I don't reject it myself, even though it was full of clichés and quite predictable. It was a very undemanding comedy, which is why I found it quite relaxing. I even laughed at some of the jokes. I don't particularly like Anne Hathaway, but I'm very fond of Meryl Streep, who can give an excellent performance even when the movie is complete nonsense. Emily Blunt is pleasing to the eye, and Stanley Tucci is an actor I always look forward to seeing. I wasn't ecstatic, but on the other hand, I don't consider it a waste of time. / Lesson learned: Clothes make the man. But who makes the clothes? ()
As a light-hearted diversion it's perfect, but as a popular comedy from an attractive setting and with four great actors, I was quite disappointed. Hathaway tries her best, but she can't pull it off on her own, Blunt and Tucci play second fiddle, and the excellent Streep alone isn’t enough to elevate this big fashion show to a high average. I can't say I didn't have fun, but Simon Pegg and his How to Lose Friends & Alienate People is a whole different thing. 65% ()
The Devil Wears Prada confidently presents itself as an exclusive product from the world of haute couture, even though it is, in fact, a ready-to-wear garment from a film quality perspective. The romantic and comedic elements are unremarkable and the story itself is unfortunately quite shallow. Essentially, it is a modification of the story of the ugly ducklings who transform into dazzling prom queens overnight. Anne Hathaway undergoes a similar transformation from a likable girl next door who doesn't know what mascara is (!) to an elegant supermodel who could easily grace the covers of international magazines (which, incidentally, is what Anne's character did). The aspect that describes and criticizes the relationship of subordination and manipulability with people is interesting, but even that is superficial and Veber dealt with it infinitely better in his film The Toy. All in all, the only thing of value is Meryl Streep's performance as a confident, perfectionist professional, which is flawless, and the actress effortlessly handles a role significantly younger than she is. Although I must admit, I didn't quite believe she was the mother of 8-year-old twins at 57. Despite essentially being kitsch, it is lightweight kitsch, well-directed, and does not descend into self-parody. Overall impression: 50%. ()
