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!

What Parents Need to Know
About The Devil Wears Prada
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.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Andy's plan to use her assistant job as a route to becoming a journalist: How does she rationalize this choice? How does Andy learn to fit into the world of high fashion by wearing the right clothes, dieting, and becoming increasingly judgmental of others? What messages does the movie send about the importance of physical appearances?

Very commercialized...pretty good.

- My highlights are:
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!

Amazing movie!
Veery good movie. Shows how harsh and brutal the fashion industry can be, and is a VERYYY entertaining movie. I think any child 10+ can watch it, as long as the parents are OK with it.

Extremely interesting tale of the fashion world
Sexual Content (Pause): Some sexual allusions, Andy has sex with a guy. Violence (Not an Issue): Emily is hit by a cab (at first played for comedy, but we later see her in the hospital). Language (Pause): Many uses of "s*it", a few uses of "hell" and "ass" (1 used with "-hole"), and 1 use each of "crap" and "bullocks" (a British swear). Social Behavior (Not an Issue): Lots of lying and decieving, but Andy is able to maintain her morality (for the most part, anyway). Commercialism (Pause): Seeing as this movie is all about fashion, there are lots of brand names dropped (such as Prada), Starbucks is mentioned a few times, as is Harry Potter. Drug/Alcohol/Tobacco (Pause): Social drinking, except for one instance where Andy gets drunk.

A GREAT movie!
This is a great comedy! I think all teens should watch this. I really enjoyed this movie. I still enjoy it ever time I watch it.

I loved the movie but....
....I feel the Anne Hathoway character was a confusing role model for young girls. Here's this nice, intelligent girl-next-door character who's living with her boyfriend and who then sleeps with some writer guy on their first date. As an adult, it didn't phase me but I could see a young girl becoming desensitized toward immoral behavior and I don't think that's healthy. I think young girls need to see moral behavior portrayed in movies because they're forming their sense of 'normal' and I personally don't want that 'normal' to be living with boyfriends or sleeping around.

Watched it three times and would watch it again!
I watched this three times on an airplane and would watch it again if I could. Meryl Streep is sweetly wicked and you hate and love her at the same time. AMAZING performance there. Parents need to realize that in the end, Anne Hathaway knows that acting like all of the people at the fashion place was wrong and hurtful to those around her. SO it teaches a good lesson!
