An alright movie!

Rating: 6/10 (4 December 2005)

This movie was very heavily weighted because it had to live up to the very successful TV series made in 1995. However I think Keira Knightly was the an alright choice for the role because she but it over well but had a hard job to follow the TV show.This movie was a. There was some humour in this movie which made it more light hearted and warming.Brenda Blethyn who played Mrs Bennet was very good, as well as Donald Sotherland who played Mr Bennet. Mattew Mcfaden who played Mr Darcey was very dashing as Mr Darcey should be, and played the part really well.The scenery was very realistic and the camera work was excellent. Even though Iliked it I can't see it being as popular as Harry Potter which was out at the time because it appeals to a restricted audience and it's an love or hate movie. I have watched this movie a few times over and I like it more than when I saw it in the cinema. A down side would be that the movie wasn't as planned out as the original but it was a film and they couldn't have it this long as well as keep the viewer entertained for so they had to cut it short. Overall a good movie.
