The Pros:

Great dynamic between the characters.

It’s been twenty years but our main characters haven’t missed a beat. I thought they channeled their original characters extremely well and adapted to their new situation with flair. I loved the banter between characters and thought everyone put on a great show.

The cameos were terrific and can I just say that Lucy Liu has not aged a day! Wow!

The fashion was on point, but honestly I expected nothing less here.

New and fresh while still bringing the nostalgia.

It’s not always easy delivering on a sequel of an iconic film set 20 years later. I’ve seen a lot of other movies fail in this department, but I thought that The Devil Wears Prada 2 managed to find its groove with its approach.

Everything worked seamlessly to keep the original vibe of the film going while still taking into account that a lot of time has passed since the first entry. The balance worked for me personally.

The Cons:

A touch too long.

The pacing was fine overall. I thought a few of the story-lines seemed a little forced without enough time to flesh them out, but nothing felt too dragged out.

That being said, I think this movie should have been about an hour and forty minutes tops.

Things were a little cheesy and predictable, but everything was very entertaining nonetheless.

I thoroughly enjoyed my watch.

So am I in or out?
