I liked it...

Rating: 8/10 (1 November 2005)

I read too many reviews of this movie before seeing it, and was almost put off by it.
I have never read the book nor watched the much talked about mini series, so I didn't know too much about the movie other than the hammering it seemed to take in the reviews about how it didn't live up to people's expectations et cetera.
But for me, I thought it was a fun movie. There was good chemistry between Elizabeth and Mr Darcy. When Elizabeth hated him, you feel hate for him, when she liked him, so did you... Mr Collins was a real laugh and Judi Dench was scary as ever. Great support cast for the two main actors. From everything I have read in the posted reviews about there not being enough emphasis placed on the support characters - for me, there didn't need to be. The two main characters were complex enough to keep you entertained.
Great movie for me, really enjoyable. I'd recommend it to anyone without any problems.
