Absolutely Terrible,

Rating: 1/10 (16 February 2006)

if i could choose a vote less than one believe me i would, this film butchers a classic novel. The brilliantly done BBC adaptation, unlike this film, actually portrayed Jane Austens book in a true light showing characters, speech and places the way they would have been. i am a great lover of Austen and especially Pride and Prejudice, all the way through this film i became increasingly annoyed at how badly done it was and the thought that other people may actually like it. no offence to the actors but they did not fit the characters at all, the film lacked so much. there were some good shots but the just appeared to be there to impress. as a film it was OK but it was not Pride and Prejudice. i will say, plain and simply, YOU CANNOT FIT A NOVEL OF THAT SIZE INTO A TWO HOUR FILM.
This film would appeal on the whole to people who have no idea about the time the film is set in, the actual Jane Austen story and its humour (rather then Hollywood's distorted modern "humour")
