This movie is perfectly done, the moment of realisation that Andy has when Miranda tells her what she did to Nigel was no different to what she did to Emily gives me goosebumps every time. The slow change throughout the movie all leading to that boiling point. It's just *chefs kiss*
@@MayMay-20000 yeaa I can understand that Andy's job isn't really good for her (the demand, the stress it put her) but the phone thing and the birthday bit, even if she's doesn't like her job it's still her job at that time, that's not cool and the birthday, it's not like she completely ignore/forgot about it, she even try at the end to make up for it but nope "nvm you missed it cuz you care so much about your job and not me!" I get the movie try to show us the job is the "evil" one but that bit just doesn't sit right to me ;-;
I will never not be able to watch this movie without hating the boyfriend and her friends. Miranda is iconic and the industry is brutal. love the commentary this movie makes on the fashion industry, it's so smart and multifaceted. the devil doesn't wear Prada the devil reaps the benefits of their friend's job and guilts them while doing it. ANYWAY great commentary!!!
I get her boyfriend was mad over her working on his bday but he was toxic Af. He didn't support her working where she was, her friends were assholes when her phone rang at dinner and kept throwing the phone around which could have caused her the job. Her boyfriend didn't say shit either and kept throwing a hissy fit because she was still working at runway. She was growing and he acted like it bothered him. There's so much he did to feel "bad" for him when he was pretty much trying to control her. Where she works, when she works, what she wears, etc... Toxic! Lol
I think that Nate and her friends' mindset was that Andrea didn't actually wanted to be a runway girl at first, she didn't care about fashion and the magazine's values so when she starts to change her essence for a job they find that behaviour incoherent. I don't think they were entirely toxic, they were just concerned about her and what her work environment was doing to her personal life.
It's not just a matter of her career choice. It's the fact that her career choice was starting to change her values and who she fundamentally was. If you liked your partner cause they had certain traits, but their career started to change those traits, you'd be upset too. If Nate liked her cause she didn't care about fashion or looks, but slowly she started to become the complete opposite of that, then yeah, it's understandable that he'd be upset or concerned. If Nate liked her cause she's not the type of person to backstab people or step on people to climb to the top, but she started to go in that direction cause of her industry, of course he'd be upset. She was changing for the worse the longer she was in that industry, which is why she ultimately decided to drop out of it. She didn't want to become like Miranda. If you don't have enough self-awareness, you won't even realize you've started to change for the worse. Nate could have done a better job with dealing with the issue and communicating, but him being upset was understandable.
Its always interesting to watch reactions to this movie bc only women, queer people, and maybe SOME guys get how the boyfriend isn’t really a good one. The birthday she missed? Yeah it sucks but it gave her the opportunity to meet people in her field that isn’t an every day thing. It was huge. Instead of understanding they make her feel guilty for taking that. They mock her job, and rarely ask her about it or respect it tbh. I feel like mostly women and queer people notice these things as many have been in that position (undermined in what they do). If a guy is apologetic to his gf and says to her he missed a party due to a huge work opportunity they wouldn’t be villainized as much
As a queer guy I watched the movie recently and after I was done I was just mainly pissed off at her boyfriend and friends. I thought that was an unpopular opinion but I guess it’s not.
I'm queer and I find the "Nate-hate" super immature. He was actually the most patient and understanding. that's so great about the movie. You really see everything through Andy's eyes and you root for her. But from a distance there are quite a few moments where she's being immature. a more mature version of Andy would look back and say; we were all growing up but I might have gone easier on Nate; he was not the issue.
All the boyfriend had to do was stick it out for a year. This was always going to be a temporary thing. He knows she has to get through this job and it's going to be crazy hours and demands but that at the other end, it's going to open so many doors for her. Yet he's somehow treating it like she suddenly doesn't love him anymore. So she missed your birthday because of unforeseen circumstances. You still had a good time with your mates and you have a birthday every year. Celebrate it again on a day next week when she's home. If my boyfriend came to me and said look, it's going to be shit for a little while but it's going to allow me to follow my dreams, I'd be like hell yeah, we'll make the best of it. You bring me that cupcake at midnight and I'll eat it while you tell me about how insane your work event was and we'll watch TV.
Plus, you can't tell me that he has never once missed her birthday. He works in a restaurant. Long, irregular hours and nighttime work. He wants her to drop her job for him, but has he ever done that for her?
I always wondered if Emily’s actual name was Emily. Or if that was the name Miranda just gave to all her assistants because she never cared to learn their actual name until Andy.
It is her name. She must’ve called her other assistants by “Emily” because she liked her and now that she liked Andy, I can see Miranda calling her new assistant “Andy” now
Emily is her actual name. But why would Miranda distinguish Andy from Emily after that job interview? Andy didnt even try to pretend to want to work there. Word of advice to young folk; when you interview for a job; you do not have the upper hand. Andy's job interview was terrible. She was ill prepared and didn't do her research. Miranda might have been aloof but honestly, I would not hire someone like Andy after that poor interview.
Aye guys, I loved this film since seeing it for the first time. Having said that, I did have a problem with the male/female portrayal...This job was a great gateway to working as a writer. The networking is invaluable. There will be other birthdays, but this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Her boyfriend & friends should’ve given her more support. Her friends had no problem accepting swag & a bag, equaling a car payment, at all, yet they were so condescending about her job. If the script was flipped, we would expect Andi to support her man. Woman always move for the man... I resented how she was treated by her so-called circle. She left when she reached her limit & not before &, what she learned had nothing to do with fashion, but she’d carry for the rest of her life. Great film! 🖤🌹🖤🧛🏻♀️
Totally agree. There's a lot of discussion as to whether her friends or bf where acting crazy but Andy was changing her personality to fit into a toxic job. Hell, if that happens in my circle of friends they would worry the same and viceversa!
@@chipacita90 She was under incredible pressure. Her bf & friends can’t be supportive for a a couple of months to a year? They all knew what her true goal was. Why sabatoge her with guilt trips? Women support their partner, sometimes financially, to help make their dreams come true. Give me a break....
@@jwhite-1471 no problem with that but there is a problem that andy crawls back to nate and she apologises instead of showing he was in the wrong i dont mind stories where people are flawed but it does have to admit they are flawed and the film seemed to show them as being the right ones when they weren't
@@jwhite-1471 The problem is not that she has toxic people in her life. The problem is that the toxic people in her life won. They gave her zero support, cost her opportunity, and the narrative of the film portrays them as justified. No one is asking for a "Disney-fication."
Tbh you guys have been my only safe spot where I de-stress from uni. I’ve been so stressed but these videos have been making me feel like I’m watching the film with you lol. Keep up the good content guys! :)
If you’re looking for another Anne movie I highly recommend “The Intern”. Robert De Niro is in it and it so touching and hilarious. They play off each other well, and there’s some familiar faces y’all might recognize. ❤
A kiss on the cheek is just that - a kiss on the cheek. But to find everyone else a "villain", but not her friends or boyfriend that literally bullied her out of a dream job. Interesting...
I dont agree. When your bf, friends and family are warning you that your job is turning you into something you're not, maybe its true... i think andy's decision on quitting in the end its because she realized that.
Damn I liked her, I didn’t think she was evil, I think she was just very good at her job but got swallowed in it. But I respected the her cause at least she was straight up but Andy in my opinion under estimated the job at the beginning and didn’t respect the field or care to find out what the job even entailed😭.
I agree 100%. She came up in a cut throat business, was she unapproachable and distant??? Maybe. But if she happened to be born a Man it would be fine...Frankly, I hate the double standard.
@@TheAshMcG if she was born a man it wouldn’t be different. It just shows that the fashion business is tough and only tough people can run it. Even if Miranda is a man, she will still need to be ruthless and be hated by some because of it. Business does not look at your gender, it looks at your value and profit you’re going to make. Just like the old guy wanted to replace Miranda with the younger Jacqueline, he doesn’t care about gender, just that jacq is younger and less expensive than Miranda is.
@@mks2042 Last I checked men make more money in corporate america...I know this by personal experience, I work in commercial real estate. When a woman is a hard ass, and no frills, she is a bitch. When a man acts the same way, he is just doing his job. There is a double standard....but I agree with you to an extent, only very resilient people have longevity in certain fields....
I’m guessing rob is the movie connoisseur yes this movie is a classic also met Streep is a icon and a legend and one of the greatest actors of our time with twenty one academy award nominations and three best actress wins with one in supporting category
if the roles were reversed, the BF would get all the same criticism as now but TRIPLED because a man working long hours is ABUSE. He missed her birthday and told her to relax there's other birthdays, Im sure ALL women would LOVE that .
Great reaction but the volume of the movie was so low I could barely hear 🥴🤦🏻♀️ and how can you guys not see how awful the boyfriend was!! He didn’t support his girlfriend or want her to grow!! 😡😡🤯
Rumor has it the line in the car when Miranda tells Andrea everybody wants this. Everybody wants to be us, was supposed to be everybody wants to be me, but Meryl wanted the audience to understand how much Andrea had changed so she changed the line from me to us.
I had this on dvd when I was like 7 and used to watch it over and over again just because I liked the fashion in it (could barely even understand english lol). this is my first time watching in over 10 years and now I finally understand everything, great movie
Bryce said he hasn't seen many Anne Hathaway movies. I would recommend the movie "Intern" where she plays with De Niro. It's so wholesome 😍 Plus you guys said that you want to watch movies of different genres, I would also recommend "Interstellar" (Hathaway plays a supporting role there)
I'd be pretty pissed off, if we made a clear arrangement with partner, what one year i work fucking hard, cause it will open the door to my dream, and then them started wining about my late shifts or, even better, what I actually started to like my job, gain new interests. Saying what i "lose my integrity" (wtf), but it's ok to moved to another state if i want to be with them when they get the cool job. (whatever, im here for Stanley Tucci
i hate how her friends and her boyfriend were so toxic bc they couldn't stand andy growing as a person and learning new things about the industry. her missing her boyfriend's birthday was not that big of a deal he should should understand that she was following her dream (meeting up with publishers etc). but at the end when HE gets his dream job he's thw good deserving one but not her when she got hers ????
The character of Miranda is based on Anna Wintour who is the editor of Vogue and the woman who wrote the book worked for her at one time. The thing about Emily going to Paris was dumb because she wouldn’t have been able to go anyways after getting hit by the taxi and Miranda wouldn’t want her hobbling around behind her.
I find the title of the video so interesting - "this lady is pure evil" - it's enlightening to see what people take away from this film as I would argue that she is not.
The hiring ending speaks a lot about Andy, she's so important that her departure disappoints Miranda, that's why even when Miranda called everyone to talk bad about her, the fact that she makes Miranda do that means she's worth something to her.
The true villains of this movie are the boyfriend and the friends ugh literally despise them Also even though Miranda is not the nicest, I totally understand why she is that way being a woman in a high position she can’t allow herself to be soft and nice since that will only lead to her not being taken seriously and disrespected
This movie is amazing!! Another rom-com that’s perfect to react to is “My Best Friend’s Wedding”. It stars Julia Roberts, and imo it’s one of the best rom-coms ever!
Honestly I liked Miranda she was just like any male dominating in their career, only difference is she’s a woman she’s a dragon lady but males are seen as powerful 🤷🏾♀️ the bf and friends honestly when you watch it again they didn’t support her yes she did start to change but she still tried to please everybody and she missed one birthday and all of a sudden she’s a horrible gf, then her friends only seemed supportive when they got gifts
The real villain is Nigel. When Irv asked him how much the cancelled photoshoot was gonna cost him; Nate didn't hesitate to tell him. Nigel loves Runway and Miranda but.... he loves himself, too. He already knew that Miranda was deemed 'too expensive' by Irv and that James Holt was looking for a partner. What I got from this movie is that, Miranda is all about loyalty. Emily is too chaotic to be an efficient assistant. But she's loyal to the bone. Which is why Miranda kept hiring second assistants. Andy is not personal assistant material but she had a drive to succeed and despite everything; she stayed loyal. Miranda pays people back in loyalty. It's nothing personal; it's business.
Yes that is Emily Blunt. Andy's boyfriend is Adrian Grenier ( From Entourage) , Christian is played by Simon Baker ( Who was in a show called The Mentalist) and the character that Meryl plays is a parody take on Anna Wintour who has run Vogue mag. For years and also the Met Gala (Anna has a rep for being a total bitch) the whole movie was a parody on the fashion world and how vapid it is.
Sorry to be a yr later lol, but I have to disagree. Parody is meant to be funny this is realistic. Shit like this happens or happened ya know, for the author. The book was revenge and the movie showed more then Andy's one sided pov. Were there a few chuckles yea, but no one was laughing at the presentation of Miranda, Emily, Andy, and her friends.
Meryl is a gem -- I think you would really enjoy her performance in the movie The River Wild -- It was a movie I wish I had gone to see on the big screen -- also her performance in Doubt is genius -- hard to even fathom that its her in that role
I think Andy got Miranda's respect because 1) She stuck it out long past many of the other girls and 2) She left on her own terms instead of quitting out of frustration or being fired. Andy made a choice to leave because she didn't want to be like Miranda... the fact that Miranda seems to acknowledge this AND respect her for it, shows that deep down Miranda knows she's a monster. But she probably also feels like she has to be that way, as a woman in that position. However flawed that thinking is, that's her life and who she is. Fun fact - when preparing for this role Meryl Streep chose to talk in a soft voice rather than yell... because she wanted to be soft and feminine but still intimidating. The kind of villain that could simply cut you with her eyes while saying nothing. I think she achieved this.
LOVE AND LIVE for this movie ❤👠 “That’s all.” Meryl Streep/Miranda Priestly = 👑 Never find Emily a mean girl/bi*ch she’s just a stress out of her job. The real villains and whiners are Andy’s friends and Christian.
Perhaps you didn't notice, but the boyfriend is pouty, whiny, completely self-absorbed and one hundred percent non-supportive. He's the actual bad guy in this movie.
@@Naahi95 The majority of people who react to this movie share that opinion. Of course, if you would chain yourself to an emotional two-year old who would sabotage your career and treat you like garbage, feel free! I would celebrate your choice. But I certainly wouldn’t do that myself. It’s called having some self-respect.
Love Meryl Streep but couldn’t stand Miranda 😂 constantly degrading and being toxic to her employees. Love the ending when Andy realises she doesn’t want to be like Miranda so makes the best decision for herself
For me the boyfriend is much more relatable than Miranda, this narrative that her friends are worse is absolutely stupid. I would never treat my employees the way Miranda does, it's degrading. Think about how many mothers and fathers have bosses like her, imagine the people who have no option but to stay at a job that pays poorly for many hours, it is obvious that a job like this will affect their personal life. I would try my best to support a partner's professional struggle, don't get me wrong, but if I saw that my partner had a bad time at work I would definitely say something, the problem here is how he talks and how he approaches her decision and in That's not what Andy wanted in the end.
To be honest I do not think the boyfriend was evil in any way. There are some people that value their social relationship more than their job and viceversa, and when those values get into conflict in a relationship, it makes it unstable and the partners lose trust in each other, so it usually leads to break up. Exactly thae disbalance of personal life and job life is a very common reasons for divorce. Not only that, but In the movie the job was not shown as Andy wanting to climb up the ladder of her carreer or doing something she was wholeheartedly interested in, it was shown as a highly exploitative, in-humane, double-crossing and corrosive work environment that ultimately took over her personal life in exchange of one or other connection to what she really wanted her carreer to be. If the movie dared to claim at the end that such an environment was acceptable all along and the boyfriend, friends and Andy herself doubting it and retracting from it were due to close-mindness or cowardice, the message of the movie would be VERY different, or better said, it would not be The Devil Wears Prada. The closest thing to a villain in this movie was the Fashion Industry itself personified in Miranda as an active perpetrator of its negative traits, she IS the Devil after all.
*FINALLY!!* I suggested that you guys watch The Devil Wears Prada a dozen times. It's my favorite film because I love Fashion and the Workforce Commentary. It's in the same vein as Whiplash and Black Swan. 🤗💖
The only issue I have with this movie is how unapologetic it is about the boyfriend. He gets to be shitty with no consequences and Andy ends up being portrayed as the sole bad apple in that relationship.
The amount of satire in this film is wonderful, honestly one of my absolute favourites. Meryl is an absolute icon in every sense of the word, to me this film always felt like a classy dig at the very real ongoings within the fashion industry. The cast was awesome too, it was also a neat touch that Gisele Bundchen one the highest paid supermodels of all time, was included (Serena- woman wearing glasses at the front desk with Emily Blunt) as a gossiping Runway bitch.
The U.S. idolizes work. It's ridiculous how many people in the comments feel like Andi's friends and boyfriend were the villains. Other cultures would never.
Actually, Andie does become like Miranda. She learned to work hard and achieve goals. She came to dress the part in a place where that was critical. Even when she gets out of the car and walks away, she does it on her own terms. After Miranda sees Andie towards the end, she smiles because she sees that Andie has grown into her own person and pursued her life and career her own way. Also, Meryl is funny at times. "Take a chance. Hire the smart fat girl."
23:17 HAHAHA I thought literally the EXACT same thing!! Like the words that flitted through my head were verbatim "He's circling her!! Like a fucking shark. Or some kind of predator or something!!"
Just curious, are we supposed to read lips on the movie clips?( lol) I’ve mentioned this so many times prior, but the volume on any show or movie is always so low, i could not hear the dialogue. ????????
The boyfriend was not a good charcter. He was not at all supportive of her job. Also her friends were horrible. The better she became at her job the more her boyfriend and friends became judgemental. I did not like that at all.

@@mks2042 Last I checked men make more money in corporate america...I know this by personal experience, I work in commercial real estate. When a woman is a hard ass, and no frills, she is a bitch. When a man acts the same way, he is just doing his job. There is a double standard....but I agree with you to an extent, only very resilient people have longevity in certain fields....
I’m guessing rob is the movie connoisseur yes this movie is a classic also met Streep is a icon and a legend and one of the greatest actors of our time with twenty one academy award nominations and three best actress wins with one in supporting category
Andy’s friends are haters. If the boyfriend was the one working all the time, nobody would say a thing. So annoying.
He works in a restaurant in nyc of all places. Irregular, long, nighttime hours. But Andy’s job is the strain?
if the roles were reversed, the BF would get all the same criticism as now but TRIPLED because a man working long hours is ABUSE. He missed her birthday and told her to relax there's other birthdays, Im sure ALL women would LOVE that .
i love yall lmfao
(completely monotone) 'oh she's slaying' 'oh go off queen' 9:45
also yall picking up on christians weird vibes from the beginning (especially the guy on the left clocking it _immediately_ ...) very slay very nice
Great reaction but the volume of the movie was so low I could barely hear 🥴🤦🏻♀️ and how can you guys not see how awful the boyfriend was!! He didn’t support his girlfriend or want her to grow!! 😡😡🤯
This movie is legit why I work in fashion journalism today lol
This movie is the reason I’m in fashion school today 😅
Legit? Please tell me you don't use that terminology in your field of work. Trends are for the desperate.
@@GullibleTargetlol jeez loosen up a lil bit cupcake 😂
Seeing this movie as an adult you realize her boyfriend was the actual villain and her friends were shitty.
Rumor has it the line in the car when Miranda tells Andrea everybody wants this. Everybody wants to be us, was supposed to be everybody wants to be me, but Meryl wanted the audience to understand how much Andrea had changed so she changed the line from me to us.
Omg this is one of the best movies ever and hope you see Andy’s boyfriend for the villain he is!
oh how much he sucks
Unfortunately they didn’t😭😭
Of course they didn’t, they are man
He isn't a villain.
@@kassiogomes8498 he is.
The gentleman at the ends (black cap) reaction to the giant closet reveal was super-sweet 🥹✨😂🥰
the way i hate her boyfriend with the fire of a thousand suns 😄 ... this movie is so good!!!!! iconic 💜
"hates him with the fire of a thousand suns" that's a direct quote
😂😂😂
Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci were always the standouts in this movie to me lol.
“Look here, SIX..” 😂😭🤣😂🤣
@@dunbardunelm3924 😭
I had this on dvd when I was like 7 and used to watch it over and over again just because I liked the fashion in it (could barely even understand english lol). this is my first time watching in over 10 years and now I finally understand everything, great movie
Bryce said he hasn't seen many Anne Hathaway movies. I would recommend the movie "Intern" where she plays with De Niro. It's so wholesome 😍
Plus you guys said that you want to watch movies of different genres, I would also recommend "Interstellar" (Hathaway plays a supporting role there)
I agree! Both very good roles for her, I liked her in the Intern movie and Interstellar. I also liked her in Bride Wars 🤣 such different roles
25:26 “sorry champ” I laughed so hard at this. That is exactly the type of guy he is.
fr lol
He's more real with her than her bf is. *shrug*
I'd be pretty pissed off, if we made a clear arrangement with partner, what one year i work fucking hard, cause it will open the door to my dream, and then them started wining about my late shifts or, even better, what I actually started to like my job, gain new interests. Saying what i "lose my integrity" (wtf), but it's ok to moved to another state if i want to be with them when they get the cool job. (whatever, im here for Stanley Tucci
Yes, that's the worst part of the movie, when he expects her to move states to his new job after how he acted about her temporary job. F that.
The villains were the boyfriend and her friends. Zero support. She said it was only one year and she could move on to better things. Love the movie.
honestly, Andy's boyfriend is of villain in this movie.
i hate how her friends and her boyfriend were so toxic bc they couldn't stand andy growing as a person and learning new things about the industry. her missing her boyfriend's birthday was not that big of a deal he should should understand that she was following her dream (meeting up with publishers etc). but at the end when HE gets his dream job he's thw good deserving one but not her when she got hers ????
Love this movie. Audio was soooo low though. Could barely hear...Having subtitles helped though..
The character of Miranda is based on Anna Wintour who is the editor of Vogue and the woman who wrote the book worked for her at one time.
The thing about Emily going to Paris was dumb because she wouldn’t have been able to go anyways after getting hit by the taxi and Miranda wouldn’t want her hobbling around behind her.
Another amazing Anne Hathaway movie I would recommend is Ella enchanted. It’s wonderfully funny ❤️
YES love that movie
The audio of the movie is very quiet compared to the commentary's audio.
I think there is too much music in the film. They can't put it on RUclips
@@kassiogomes8498Lowering the volume doesn’t fool Content ID.
Rob seen every movie there is😂😂
Y’all are my fav the hype y’all give when her fits are transitioning and the monotone “go off queen” and “slay”
Finally!!! You posted it!!! This is one of my favourite movies, thanks for uploading and hope you enjoy it :) have a wonderful day guys.
I find the title of the video so interesting - "this lady is pure evil" - it's enlightening to see what people take away from this film as I would argue that she is not.
The hiring ending speaks a lot about Andy, she's so important that her departure disappoints Miranda, that's why even when Miranda called everyone to talk bad about her, the fact that she makes Miranda do that means she's worth something to her.
don’t know any other youtube channel that’s consistently posts as much as you guys and i love it 🫶🏼
Such a great movie!! Your movie reactions are great.
The true villains of this movie are the boyfriend and the friends ugh literally despise them
Also even though Miranda is not the nicest, I totally understand why she is that way being a woman in a high position she can’t allow herself to be soft and nice since that will only lead to her not being taken seriously and disrespected
Never underestimate the appeal of a man who supports your ambitions
This movie is amazing!!
Another rom-com that’s perfect to react to is “My Best Friend’s Wedding”. It stars Julia Roberts, and imo it’s one of the best rom-coms ever!
Honestly I liked Miranda she was just like any male dominating in their career, only difference is she’s a woman she’s a dragon lady but males are seen as powerful 🤷🏾♀️ the bf and friends honestly when you watch it again they didn’t support her yes she did start to change but she still tried to please everybody and she missed one birthday and all of a sudden she’s a horrible gf, then her friends only seemed supportive when they got gifts
The real villain is Nigel. When Irv asked him how much the cancelled photoshoot was gonna cost him; Nate didn't hesitate to tell him. Nigel loves Runway and Miranda but.... he loves himself, too. He already knew that Miranda was deemed 'too expensive' by Irv and that James Holt was looking for a partner. What I got from this movie is that, Miranda is all about loyalty. Emily is too chaotic to be an efficient assistant. But she's loyal to the bone. Which is why Miranda kept hiring second assistants. Andy is not personal assistant material but she had a drive to succeed and despite everything; she stayed loyal. Miranda pays people back in loyalty. It's nothing personal; it's business.
Yes that is Emily Blunt. Andy's boyfriend is Adrian Grenier ( From Entourage) , Christian is played by Simon Baker ( Who was in a show called The Mentalist) and the character that Meryl plays is a parody take on Anna Wintour who has run Vogue mag. For years and also the Met Gala (Anna has a rep for being a total bitch) the whole movie was a parody on the fashion world and how vapid it is.
Sorry to be a yr later lol, but I have to disagree. Parody is meant to be funny this is realistic. Shit like this happens or happened ya know, for the author. The book was revenge and the movie showed more then Andy's one sided pov. Were there a few chuckles yea, but no one was laughing at the presentation of Miranda, Emily, Andy, and her friends.
You guys should watch “how to lose a guy in 10 days”
15:17 Rob’s 2nd hand embarrassment face/ reactions are so funny and so relatable
I can barley listen to the movie my volume is to the max I’ll appreciate it if y’all make the sound exactly like yours
Meryl is a gem -- I think you would really enjoy her performance in the movie The River Wild -- It was a movie I wish I had gone to see on the big screen -- also her performance in Doubt is genius -- hard to even fathom that its her in that role
Actually her friends and her bf are the most evil ones in this movie. 😂
The real villains are the boyfriend and friends😫
I think Andy got Miranda's respect because 1) She stuck it out long past many of the other girls and 2) She left on her own terms instead of quitting out of frustration or being fired. Andy made a choice to leave because she didn't want to be like Miranda... the fact that Miranda seems to acknowledge this AND respect her for it, shows that deep down Miranda knows she's a monster. But she probably also feels like she has to be that way, as a woman in that position. However flawed that thinking is, that's her life and who she is. Fun fact - when preparing for this role Meryl Streep chose to talk in a soft voice rather than yell... because she wanted to be soft and feminine but still intimidating. The kind of villain that could simply cut you with her eyes while saying nothing. I think she achieved this.
You guys need to watch “ Do revenge” !!
Princess diary is so goooood
This is such a great movie. Miranda is iconic.
OMG!!! Reel-Time + The Devil Wears Prada = Perfect sunday!!!
LOVE AND LIVE for this movie ❤👠 “That’s all.” Meryl Streep/Miranda Priestly = 👑
Never find Emily a mean girl/bi*ch she’s just a stress out of her job. The real villains and whiners are Andy’s friends and Christian.
The way I screamed when I saw the notification
Also the title should be “Andy’s boyfriend and friends*** are evil”
Emily’s coworker friend Serena is supermodel Gisele Bündchen (and soon to be Tom Brady’s ex wife 😬)
Perhaps you didn't notice, but the boyfriend is pouty, whiny, completely self-absorbed and one hundred percent non-supportive. He's the actual bad guy in this movie.
Maybe they don't view it that way. It's called having an opinion :)
@@Naahi95 The majority of people who react to this movie share that opinion. Of course, if you would chain yourself to an emotional two-year old who would sabotage your career and treat you like garbage, feel free! I would celebrate your choice. But I certainly wouldn’t do that myself. It’s called having some self-respect.
@@Naahi95 Only people that is blind to red flags and toxicity don’t see the obvious.
The guy in the middle could be such a great joker for halloween 🃏
Wasn’t crazy about how this was edited. Felt like all the good parts were cut out.
yoo what happed to the audio
Love Meryl Streep but couldn’t stand Miranda 😂 constantly degrading and being toxic to her employees. Love the ending when Andy realises she doesn’t want to be like Miranda so makes the best decision for herself
For me the boyfriend is much more relatable than Miranda, this narrative that her friends are worse is absolutely stupid. I would never treat my employees the way Miranda does, it's degrading. Think about how many mothers and fathers have bosses like her, imagine the people who have no option but to stay at a job that pays poorly for many hours, it is obvious that a job like this will affect their personal life.
I would try my best to support a partner's professional struggle, don't get me wrong, but if I saw that my partner had a bad time at work I would definitely say something, the problem here is how he talks and how he approaches her decision and in That's not what Andy wanted in the end.
THANK YOU!!! I don't really like the boyfriend either but calling him and the friends the "real villains" is insane.
I’m so excitedddd this is literally my favourite movie ever
To be honest I do not think the boyfriend was evil in any way. There are some people that value their social relationship more than their job and viceversa, and when those values get into conflict in a relationship, it makes it unstable and the partners lose trust in each other, so it usually leads to break up. Exactly thae disbalance of personal life and job life is a very common reasons for divorce. Not only that, but In the movie the job was not shown as Andy wanting to climb up the ladder of her carreer or doing something she was wholeheartedly interested in, it was shown as a highly exploitative, in-humane, double-crossing and corrosive work environment that ultimately took over her personal life in exchange of one or other connection to what she really wanted her carreer to be. If the movie dared to claim at the end that such an environment was acceptable all along and the boyfriend, friends and Andy herself doubting it and retracting from it were due to close-mindness or cowardice, the message of the movie would be VERY different, or better said, it would not be The Devil Wears Prada. The closest thing to a villain in this movie was the Fashion Industry itself personified in Miranda as an active perpetrator of its negative traits, she IS the Devil after all.
Her lame boyfriend is actually the villain of the movie
Me at my job not knowing what to do every time 😂
This is my all time favorite movie. So far you guys watched Easy A, Jennifer's Body, and Mean Girls. Those are all my favorite movies
*FINALLY!!* I suggested that you guys watch The Devil Wears Prada a dozen times. It's my favorite film because I love Fashion and the Workforce Commentary. It's in the same vein as Whiplash and Black Swan. 🤗💖
The only issue I have with this movie is how unapologetic it is about the boyfriend. He gets to be shitty with no consequences and Andy ends up being portrayed as the sole bad apple in that relationship.
I hate liars who pretend they never watch something just to make a reaction of it
I actually respect Miranda's work ethic, especially in such a high stake position and business - gotta work hard to reach those levels 😸👌🏼🌸
oh heck yes!! i love this movie so much!!
also speaking of early 2000s...y'all should definitely do how to lose a guy in 10 days. i feel like you all would love that one!
The amount of satire in this film is wonderful, honestly one of my absolute favourites. Meryl is an absolute icon in every sense of the word, to me this film always felt like a classy dig at the very real ongoings within the fashion industry. The cast was awesome too, it was also a neat touch that Gisele Bundchen one the highest paid supermodels of all time, was included (Serena- woman wearing glasses at the front desk with Emily Blunt) as a gossiping Runway bitch.
The U.S. idolizes work. It's ridiculous how many people in the comments feel like Andi's friends and boyfriend were the villains. Other cultures would never.
The Breakup from that same year with Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston is pretty good.
They said they based Miranda's character after Ana Wintour 👀
umm i hope when you say this lady is pure evil, you are talking about the boyfriend, who is the real villain in the movie ...
Actually, Andie does become like Miranda. She learned to work hard and achieve goals. She came to dress the part in a place where that was critical. Even when she gets out of the car and walks away, she does it on her own terms. After Miranda sees Andie towards the end, she smiles because she sees that Andie has grown into her own person and pursued her life and career her own way.
Also, Meryl is funny at times. "Take a chance. Hire the smart fat girl."
it was v interesting watching you guys react to Christian. you guys clocked that he was a sleezebag so fast and i appreciated your character read!
I can’t even lie this movie is such a guilty pleasure for me
Movie audio is too low.
"Oh, she's slaying!"
"Go off, Queen!"
😂😂😂
I watched this movie last year and it was awesome.
Nate is closer to on the outs than you think.
Look at the outfit Andy's wearing at the end. It's not designer, but it's not her old clothes either.
Yes, she finally has her own style with clothes she likes.
By the way, is she still with Nate ?
@@a.g.demada5263 they might work something out....Nate is emotionally quite mature.
@a.g.demada5263 no she is not. They parted on friendly terms.
@@videohistory722 ah ok thank you. That was unclear for me
Anne was great in 'Brokeback Mountain'- the whole cast was phenomenal!
23:17 HAHAHA I thought literally the EXACT same thing!!
Like the words that flitted through my head were verbatim "He's circling her!! Like a fucking shark. Or some kind of predator or something!!"
Just curious, are we supposed to read lips on the movie clips?( lol) I’ve mentioned this so many times prior, but the volume on any show or movie is always so low, i could not hear the dialogue. ????????
It’s probably for copy right reasons. Or maybe their ears just hear different during the editing.
i'm a bit drunk rn, but tbh u guys are my favorite boys on the internet and i just wanted to say that
“I haven’t really seen a bunch of stuff Anne has been in.”
“You’re gonna love Tucci.”
“…okay.”
Hahahahahaha
The boyfriend was not a good charcter. He was not at all supportive of her job. Also her friends were horrible. The better she became at her job the more her boyfriend and friends became judgemental. I did not like that at all.
I feel like no one ever notices that Emily Blunts friend Serena is model Gisele B
