"The Nanny Diaries" tells the story of the emotional and often humorous journey of Annie Braddock (Johansson), a young woman from a working-class neighborhood in New Jersey, struggling to understand her place in the world. Fresh out of college, she gets tremendous pressure from her mother to find a respectable position in the business world although Annie would prefer to trade in her blackberry for an anthropologist's field diary. Through a serendipitous meeting, Annie ends up in the elite and ritualistic culture of Manhattan's Upper East Side -- as remote from Annie's suburban New Jersey upbringing as life in an Amazon tribal village. Choosing to duck out of real life, Annie accepts the position as a nanny for a wealthy family, referred to as simply "the X's." She quickly learns that life is not very rosy on the other side of the tax bracket, as she must cater to the every whim of Mrs. X (Linney) and her precocious son Grayer, while attempting to avoid the formidable Mr. X (Giamatti). Life becomes even more complicated when Annie falls for a gorgeous Park Avenue Hottie (Evans), and she's forced to re-examine her life and the direction in which it is headed.

My main gripe is Johannson's acting, which is borderline complete garbage. She's vapid and seems bored much of the time. Not to mention confused about her lines as well as how she should react to the script. Alicia Keys could have also done with a replacement. I'm sure her and Johannson couldn't convince a single person that their on-screen friendship was sincere. The plot was somewhat hackneyed, but the execution was okay. This movie wasn't groundbreaking, original or even "good." But it wasn't bad either.

I love thus movie that's Why I'm buying it. Favorite part was with the nanny cam, that was so funny she let those women have it.

Such a gr8 movie!
