AWESOME! Yes I am 9. Yes I have seen it. Its good but may make kids really conscious about their bodies. Do skip through the "kissy" part because I have seen it and -believe me- its nothing your kids need to see.Andy does ditch her fashionista boss in the end though and , BTW, Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep are AWESOME in this video! Meryl Streep was as good as she was in Mamma Mia!

What Parents Need to Know
This review of The Devil Wears Prada was written by Cynthia Fuchs
Parents need to know that the movie features cruel judgments about body size and fashion. Characters are materialistic and catty (usually as comedy, though some hurtful comments are also made). Characters use mild language (s--t) and drink alcohol. Lots of mentions of high-end fashion brands. Younger kids won't be interested, since the subject matter won't mean anything to them.

How does Andy learn to fit into the world of high fashion by wearing the right clothes, dieting, and becoming increasingly judgmental of others?

More on The Devil Wears Prada
What’s the Story?
In THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, socially conscious journalism major Andy (Anne Hathaway) takes a job at Runway fashion magazine as second assistant to ruthless editor Miranda (Meryl Streep). Andy is told repeatedly that if she survives a year, she'll be able to get a job at any magazine, but has no idea how tough her year will be: Her primary jobs are fetching coffee and outfits from various designers around town, and running personal errands for Miranda. Andy is also at the beck and call of first assistant Emily (Emily Blunt). Worse, she's reminded daily that her clothes are ugly and that she's "fat" (at size six). Art director Nigel (Stanley Tucci) gives Andy a makeover and devotes herself to pleasing Miranda, leaving her live-in boyfriend Nate (Adrian Grenier) and best friend Lilly (Tracie Thoms) feeling abandoned. But even as she's seduced by a cynical writer (Simon Baker) and enticed by the sense of power the fashion folks claim for themselves, Andy never loses her moral sensibility.
Is It Any Good?
Sometimes over-the-top and sometimes sentimental, Prada is most notable for Meryl Streep's remarkably subtle performance as super-diva Miranda Priestly. While the movie loves its costumes and montages (often together), the plot is creaky and the target far too easy: Everyone knows the world of haute couture is cutthroat, imperious, and lurid.
Streep's Miranda is complex and compelling. Though her outfits and superciliousness are as outrageous as everyone else's, Miranda tends to speak quickly and quietly, to assume her supremacy even as she's vulnerable.

I rate this title iffy for age 11 and give it
- My concerns are:
- Inappropriate sexual content
Awesome... But skip through some parts

- My highlights are:
- Good role models
Perfect from 10 and up. Good Role Models
I feel that Anne Hathaway in this movie is a great role model. Her boss in the movie was rude, and unappreciating of her work, but Anne didn't give up. She perservered and that is a good message to send to kids of age ten and up. This movie was also entertaining.

Great for Tweens, not for younger
The use of alcohol is at a minimum and is less than most movies than seen in today's movies, however this is not a PG movie either. This definately need to be a PG-13 movie due to the body image issues and stong language. It is great for tweens and givens them something to really to recognize with. Every tween can identify with one of the characters in the movie.

Very commercialized...pretty good.
This movie was great, especially with Anne Hathaway. There is some cussing, but it's not that bad; there is also minimal drinking, but that should not be a big issue either. Overall, a girl into shopping will like this movie like I did!

THE chick flick
Streep's acting is superb, and the overall message is to fit in with you can, but never totally conform to what everybody else is doing. This movie though, is 100% chick-flick, not for guys who feel manly about themselves.

Streep fans must watch:)
Meryl Streep nailed this role as Miranda. Is there anything she can't do?Andy is seen drinking but not in a trashy way, she sleeps with a guy on a first date,nothing is shown. No nudity, though it is implied. Designers are advertised as well. Amazing movie overall, and a must-see for all the Streep fans out there:)

Very good, on and off.
This movie was verryyyy good, but it was one of those where the Main story is cute, but her social life stinks and is boring. The whole time I was watching it I am like....Get back to the part at Miranda Priestly's. Those parts were good and Meryl Streep Is dynamite!

Great for 12 and up!
This is such a wonderful movie and really makes you laugh! It's a great film aside from the begining with the women getting dressed and the foul language.

Not exactly good.
I thought this movie was good if you are looking to watch a movie with younger kids. However, I would not watch this movie again.

Funny and fresh!
Both of my kids, Braden and Sophi have seen it and LOVED it! I wondered what they could be boasting about, so decided to order it from Netflix. After watching it, I realized why they liked it so much. It was funny, realistic and great! A definite must for your Netflix queue, or on your Blockbuster list.

Good film for girl girls and women from about age 10
There is nothing particularly wrong with this film - apart from seeing women get dressed right at the beginning, but if you fast forward that then the film is suitable for any age, but I would say that they have to understand that the `cheese` diet isn't a good idea if they want to go skinny!
