7/10
surprisingly enjoyable!
29 September 2005
It was with some trepidation that I went to see this film, believing that I would not enjoy it and that it would in no way compare to the book or the 1995 adaptation. However I floated out of the cinema! A lavish production with lots of giggles and I thought brilliant performances from Keira Knightley and Matthew McFadyen. The romance was believable, if somewhat 'rushed', having to squash lots of happenings into a 2 hour film, but I think I'll have to go and see this again. For a big screen production it works. However I suspect die hard Austen fans may object to the differences in the film to that of the book. But go and see it and judge for yourselves...
