Not as good as the BBC version!

Rating: 3/10 (3 July 2006)

Altogether i didn't really like it.
I was very disappointed with this version of the pride and the prejudice! To begin with, it was a bit difficult to understand, i had to keep explaining what they were saying and meaning to my friend.
The dresses were a mixture of tow different era's so didn't really match the story, which is set in the regency era or early 1800's not the late 1700's! And one of the dresses, the one that Bingley's sister wears to the ball looks like it's just come of a modern runway, in the 21st century. Very disappointing! Even if it is a nice looking dress.
Also in the BBC version, there is a difference between the decor of the houses of Mr. Darcy and Lady Catherine De Bourgh, which shows an important difference of character. But when in comes to this version - one is just as tacky and show-offish as the other.
Also what happened to Mr. Bingleys other sister? This film is missing very many things that would make it better! There a few good points however, and i do think it is worth seeing just so we can be nasty to it when comparing it to the BBC version.
