The first thing you need to know is that the DVD we got evidently had a scratch because it didn't work real well. There were several places that we had to skip ahead because the DVD stuck. So I may very well have missed crucial or funny parts of the movie.
But I didn't like it. At all, really. It was ok, and it started off kind of fun and silly, but it turned really heavy and then we got into some good character development...and then it disappeared. I thought they were going to develop Meryl Streep's character more, but no. They definitely left her looking cruel and pathetic and worthy of only fear and loathing. And what is with Anne Hathaway only doing the Ugly Duckling type movies? I'm bored with it! Her character development was better, but at the end it was like they ran out of time and she instantly turned back to who she was (which was a good thing, but terribly unrealistic).
Anyway, it's a movie that if it's on tv on a lazy Sunday afternoon and you have nothing better to do, then sure, watch it. But otherwise, don't waste your time or money.
