The Nanny Diaries
Grade: B-
Scarlett Johanssen stars in the movie version of the popular chick-lit novel, “The Nanny Diaries.” The premise is simple – college grad finds herself at a cross-roads and opts for a job as a Nanny rather than jumping into a career she feels unprepared for. Along the way the young anthropology student studies and learns, about life, people, and herself. Laura Linney plays her upper-Eastside employer, a stressed society mom who in turn learns from the one she employs. Alicia Keys is the wise and funny best friend.
Cute movie, but nothing amazing or original. |
