Utter rubbish

Rating: 1/10 (23 April 2008)

I can't begin to tell you how unspeakably awful this adaptation is. Luckily this has been done admirably well by previous comment makers on these pages. Although I will quickly mention the one bit that actually makes my blood boil it is so unbelievably wrong. In the Regency period in England if a man went barging into a ladies bedroom when she wasn't dressed there would probably have been a public scandal!!! If you enjoy Jane Austen then do not see this film and please ignore the panderers who gave it 10/10 and then proceeded to make excuses for all the mistakes in the script, casting, locations, costumes etc. Nothing makes up for the mistakes, this is just a very bad film and it's best if we ignore it - perhaps it will go away. The BBC mini series is so far beyond better than this unwashed toilet bowl of a film so please see that instead and be happy!
