Only slightly funny/entertaining ... Hathaway gets to dress nice

Rating: 3/10 (15 July 2006)

I only went to see this movie because I had read a few reviews that raved about how hysterical Meryl Streep was in this role. I can accurately state that in a theater 1/3 full there was not ONE scene which caused the audience to laugh out loud. In fact, it was a pretty silent crowd.
Sigh. Why do we keep *hoping* that we'll go to the movies and be surprisingly delighted?
I will say that the fashions were fun to see and that Stanley Tucci was the best part of the movie ... wish he'd had a bigger role. Anne Hathaway is a charming beauty and it's nice to just see her stunning smile and perfect complexion on screen. I hope Hollywood doesn't ruin her.
