Attempted murder and stealing of identity

Rating: 1/10 (22 February 2011)

If you have read Jane Austen's novel "Pride and Prejudice" and you liked this ... um ... movie? ... you clearly did not understand one bit of it. Where is the subtlety? Where is the wit? And when did it become okay to "pilage and plunder" classic British novels with American bad taste?
And why, oh, why did Keira Knightley have to be Elizabeth Bennet? First of all, she obviously cannot act (yep, I'm an indignant fan and lover of the book, so sue me). Secondly, she is underfed. No offense. If her performance would have been spotless I probably would have gotten over it, but as such ... her performance was not only not spotless, it was so spotted that you could have mistaken it for spotless, know what I mean? And obviously some people here have clearly mistaken it ... This was not a performance, this was a circus. The whole movie was a circus! I don't even want to begin to analyze what's-his-name's performance - you know, the faded, weak and boring human being who accidentally stumbled upon the great role of the mighty Mr. Darcy ... Please, please watch the BBC version (1995 I believe) with Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth and all the other superb members of the cast ... Do it for yourselves ...
I apologize if I seem a bit aggressive, but I feel the need to warn everybody against this ghastly production and disgusting acting and sheer terrible choice of cast, of director, of producer blah blah ... even the music was terrible, I'm sure, though I cannot remember it (see, it was terrible).
I don't usually go and comment like a maniac HOWEVER I have just seen that a person on this Earth, our planet, has voted 10 :| I would have given it a 3, but I finally decided on 1 so as to compensate ...
