The movie was much better with Richard Gere and Julia Roberts

Rating: 2/10 (6 July 2006)

Sucked sucked sucked.......and I love Meryl Streep. I REALLY disagree with the previous poster who thought Streep was great. She's done a variation on this role to death. Didn't you see 'She-Devil' or 'Death Becomes Her'? She was basically the same yet much funnier.I just wrote a letter to David Poland suggesting he's greatly underestimating her box office pull: she might be the BEST guaranteer of box office among female stars right now (I'm talking this decade)...but again..this was so routine. Her 'bitchiness' was more about editing than acting (Do you think wearing a different outfit and tossing a coat on a desk ten different times requires skill?). Hector Elizondo..oops, I mean Stanley Tucci, made no sense, Anne Hathaway made even less, and none of it was their fault. This was a horribly written/adapted piece of crap.
