It's wonderful if you haven't read the book

Rating: 5/10 (11 May 2008)

This is overall a pretty good film. Keira Knightly, the hot young thing she is, and all the other actors and actresses do well. The script is good and everything. But it doesn't even compare to the absolute masterpiece of the book. The other Pride and Prejudice movies are longer for a reason. There was so much explaining and events that that omitted. I know in this day in age, having a long film easily bores people, but I actually think it would've helped the movie. If you haven't read the book, you might think it's an absolutely amazing movie. If you read the book before hand, you will probably be disappointed.
