Review: Pride & Prejudice(Movies)
Posted: Feb 14 2006, 03:16 PM
Reviewed: Pride & Prejudice
Starring: Keira Knightley, Matthew MacFadyen · Rating: PG · Year: 2005 ·
Description: When wealthy bachelor Mr. Bingley takes up residence in a nearby mansion, the Bennets are abuzz. Amongst the man’s sophisticated circle of London friends and the influx of young militia officers, surely there will be no shortage of suitors for the Bennet sisters. Eldest daughter Jane, serene and beautiful, seems poised to win Mr. Bingley’s heart. For her part, Lizzie meets with the handsome and--it would seem--snobbish Mr. Darcy, and the battle of the sexes is joined.
Review Title: The original is better · Overall Score: 6
(Overall Rating: 6, Casting / Acting: 6, Story: 6, )
My Opinion:
This was an ok version of a story that has been redone so many different times and so many different ways. I thought the one with Colin Firth was better. This one was a little more modern and the actos were ok for their charactors.
I give this movie a B.

Review Title: this is pale in comparison
Overall Score: 3
(Overall Rating: 2, Casting / Acting: 4, Story: 4, )
My Opinion:
I agree that the colin firth/jennifer ehle/ BBC version is so much better. I think that one is a 10/10 while this one has too little time for character development. The ending is also very hoaky and very hollywood. I never read the book so i can't say which is truer to the book. It was almost comical to watch to see where they would cut corners to make it a feature length movie.
