Our Take
Lauren Weisberger's sequel novel Revenge Wears Prada took Andy Sachs into new territory — a decade on, building a bridal magazine empire alongside Emily while the shadow of Miranda loomed. The film takes its own liberties with that premise, but the spirit is intact: what happens when the women who escaped the dragon end up back in the same room as her? Director David Frankel and screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna — both returning from the original — have made something that feels less like a nostalgia cash-grab and more like a genuine reckoning with who these characters became. At $433 million and counting, audiences clearly agree. Whether you loved the book, the first film, or both, this one is worth the trip to the theater.
