a good try but better versions have been made

Rating: 6/10 (2 March 2006)

I absolutely love the 1995 miniseries version with Colin Firth. I may have been biased by watching this version before the new version came out, but I think that the characters in this version were a bit too overacted. I think Lizzy in this movie (Kiera Knightly) needs a little bit more studying of the character, and the actor who played Darcy, could not even compare to the acting skills of Colin Firth. Overall, if you have not seen previous versions of this movie, you would probably love it, but if you want a great version of this movie, I whole heartedly recommend the 1995 miniseries version. Hope this helps you decide whether or not you will like the movie.
