Devil Wears Prada

Photo from Rottentomatoes. Last night, my friends and I went to watch the advanced screening of the new long-awaited comedy, "Devil Wears Prada". This movie is an adaptation of Lauren Weisberger's best-seller book. Meryl Streep is brilliantly devilish in her performance as an icy, self-centred editor. It is definitely a must-see movie for all comedy lovers and the fashion-conscious.

In the movie, Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep), the montrous Editor-in-Chief of the Runaway magazine, hires Andrea (Andy) Sachs (Anne Hathaway) as a second assistant. Andy's desperate need for acknowledgement and approval from the cruel editor forces her to become 'one of them'. Soon, she transforms from a smart, size 6 journalism graduate to an obedient, size 4 assistant who wear Chanel and Jimmy Choo. Her changes of style and make-up even gain her praises from Gisele Bundchen. Despite all unreasonable demands by the 'Devil' - such as, two copies of the new Harry Potter manuscripts, Andy is able to prove that she belongs in a fashion magazine firm. However, in doing so, Andy jeopardises her personal values and her relationship with her friends and boyfriend.

Favourite line: 'There's a new diet where you don't eat anything,' Emily Blunt.
Score: 8 out of 10

Ps. Kate Moss has elevated herself from being just a supermodel to a superwoman. Note how she's able to walk without touching the ground.

Pps. On top of being the face of 14 different fashion houses and earned more than £40 million since her 'flour cutting' scandal, Kate has just signed a deal to design for UK fashion chain, TopShop.

Ppps. 'flour cutting' scandal - Your Honour, there is no evidence to suggest that the alleged illicit drug was cocaine. My client has recently being interested in making cupcakes and she likes her flour super-fine.

Pppps. Your Honour, my client would like to claim Pretty Supermodel Immunity.
