Reasons I hate the film The Devil Wears Prada


1. It's always on TV.

2. Anne Hathaway is meant to be unattractive and like she needs to lose a few pounds. Its ridiculous. Anne Hathaway is really annoying, but she is really good looking. No one is buying that ugly duckling BS.

3. Its not funny at all.

4. People with shitty jobs can't afford to live in totally cute apartments in Soho.

5. There is no friend chemistry amongst Anne Hathaway and her friends. Their 'banter' is appalling. They all seem like knobs.

6. We are meant to feel sorry for her because of all the crappy things she has to put up with at work. Everyone has had shitty jobs. I used to have a job that involved checking for fungus between the toes of old ladies. And that was a volunteer job!*

7. Apart from a few cute outfits in the post-makeover montage, Anne Hathaway totally looked better before the makeover.

8. It's not charming at all. Or insightful. Or enjoyable.

9. The fact that it is so crap is bad for Emily Blunt, who I really like. She is married to Krasinski in real life!

*Chambo and I once volunteered at a hospital where they did a lot of hydrotherapy with oldies who had had hip replacements, strokes, etc. We would get in the pool and teach them aqua aerobics. But first we had to check between their toes for fungus. It sounds worse than it was.
