Mind Numbing

Rating: 2/10 (11 April 2006)

Wow! That is the first word that comes to my head after watching this.... I don't even know. This movie was a HUGE disappointment. It left me in anger and dismay. Being a huge fan of the book, and the Colin Firth version, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Before watching this movie, I was very interested in seeing how they were going to cut an 4 1/2hr. movie (Coilin Firth version) into just over an hour. Well I got my answer. Because they shortened it so much, you did not feel any emotion at all towards the characters. There was no build up. Everything just happened way to fast. Not to mention their speech. To me it was almost like they were racing each other, to see who could say their lines the fastest. Really annoying. Speaking of annoying, Keira Knightley's hair (wig) was so distracting. Where did they get that thing-the trash. I mean It was horrible- not to mention the costume. There was a certain dress worn by a certain somebody ( i don't want to spoil it for those who have not seen it) that was so out of place. I could go on and on, but I won't. I love Keira, and I won't blame her this mistake-I mean we're all entitled to one.
