    Devil Wears Prada vs. Superman

    Yes...I know ... they should never be compared. So, obviously I watched two movies this weekend. I stuck a knife behind my BF's back and forced him to watch Devil Wears Prada with me... the next day we I watched superman with him. Fair trade, non?

    So what's the verdict? My BF, who is NOT gay, said he enjoyed Devil Wears Prada a lot more than Superman. No, I'm not kidding. Devil Wears Prada was a chick flick that wasn't really a chick flick - (which is why people who actually wanted to see a chick flick thought it was the worst movie ever.) It was a very funny and witty movie and had very little romance it it. The script was well done (compliments of the book, I presume) and the acting was decent. I know Anne Hathaway was a total type-cast but this was the perfect role for her; Meryl Streep was also a very good fit. It is also very easy to relate to - espeically for anyone who's had an awkward phase - and it kept the interest going. Of course, anyone who likes looking at pretty clothes will definitely get their eye-full.

    As for superman. Well what can I say? It wasn't bad - it had a lot of nice flying sequences, a rather soap-operaish story-line, and some interesting acting. It just wasn't that good and I didn't expect soap-opera stories from the guy that made X-Men. It was also bloody 3 hours long so all I could think about at the end was whether I'd be able to make it to the bathroom. Otherwise, it's a decent rent.

    Oh summer boredom, will you ever end? The only entertaining thing so far has been Oblivion damn it!
