1. I haven't yet
I can't believe Meryl Streep could play more
evil than she did in Manchurian Candidate, but
I hear she does.

3. I saw it last week.
It didn't change my life, but it was very enjoyable. And Meryl was fantastic.

4. I really liked it.
I saw it with about 20 gay boys and they all liked it too.

5. Viewed it last week with my daughter - we both had read the book
and the movie takes a different twist at the end. Was an enjoyable escapist chick-flick.

6. Am I going to want to go out and buy fashionable clothers
instead of my jeans and denim workshirts?

Can't afford to buy new clothes right now.

7. Saw it, meh
Yes Streep it good in it but I thought it was just too superficial and not very interesting. Anna Hathaway look gorgeous in it.

15. Indeed - I missed the Lily storyline as well. I wish they had kept
truer to the book - but it IS Hollywood after all.

10. I enjoyed it. Meryl Streep is just fantastic
and the supporting actress who plays Emily is great, too. It was a fun way to spend a few hours, I'd definitely recommend it. Meryl Streep can say more with a glance than many actors can say with an entire movieful of dialogue.

18. Frothy, but fun
It ain't gonna win any Oscars, but I had a good time watching it. It's fun if you don't expect anything deep
