Sense & Sensibility

Rating: 5/10 (10 September 2016)

Nothing really new to see here: if you don't recognize Eleanor and Marianne Dashwood in this you don't know Jane Austen. Elsa, like Eleanor, is cool and reserved. Anna, like Marianne, is emotional and dramatic. Both Marianne and Anna fall madly in love with a gorgeous jerk on a horse. Both finally realize the better man was on the sidelines all along, but it takes a near death experience to figure it out.
I love the music and animation but as for the plot, if you want a film with good characters and acting, watch how Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet did it. Few people watch Disney films for plot and dialogue anyway, so if this film disappoints you, perhaps you have outgrown the genre.
