very good! better than I thought it would be

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2006)

I really liked this film. One of the best I've seen all year. I've read the novel and I thought it was alright so when production of this film took place I was both curious to see it and also "meh" since the novel to me could've been better on many other levels.
When I went to go see the movie, I was taken aback. At first glance, Meryl Streep does not "fit" the character of Miranda. But as the movie progressed I really liked her. Anne Hathaway did a good job too, but at moments I found that she was trying too hard. I really thought that Emily Blunt did an amazing job at playing Emily, her one-liners were hilarious. By far, my favorite character is Nigel, if you go see the movie, you'll see why.
In total honesty I thought this movie was going to turn into crap, but instead, the movie kept my attention throughout the entire movie. For me, I was able to keep up with everything since I've read the novel, so everything was just a refreshment really...but if you haven't you might have problems keeping up with some things, but it's not TERRIBLY CONFUSING so it's all good.
I really liked this movie, the plot lines got twisted around a little bit, but in overall I think it was for the better. I'm really looking forward to buying this movie on DVD, that's how good it is
