5 out of 5 stars Great movie!   September 8, 2008

4 out of 5 stars Finally, a production that makes Darcy 3D   September 6, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

You can always trust BBC in excellence in costume drama, both the 1975 and this version are the most authentic adoptation I've seen.

What I particularly liked about this production is that unlike the 1975 production, the '96 Mr. Darcy is no longer just Elizabeth's beau - but a character with substance, commending its own place in the story.

......and to the skeptical men readin this review, I AM preferring to the famous Colin-Firth-walks-out-of-the-lake scene..............

Before Elizabeth's visit to Pemberly, Mr. Darcy was just one of her suitors, created to give Austin a chance to show off Elizabeth's quick wit and acid tonge. Pemberly is the real entrance for Mr. Darcy. From here on, the author began to concentrate on him, giving him life, voice and presence.

So what's wrong with emphasising this grand entrance by making a bit of splash?! ^_^



5 out of 5 stars Pride and Prejudice DVD - Wonderful version of a classic   August 23, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a fantastic version of the film. Collin Firth is wonderful to watch and convincingly arrogant, yet caring and sexy. The other actors are all funny and believable in their roles. A must buy!

5 out of 5 stars Really Great!   August 22, 2008
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

I love this miniseries! I hadn't read Pride and Prejudice prior to seeing the movie, but when I finally did get around to reading the book, I couldn't believe how accurate this movie was to what was in the book. In my opinion, that very rarely happens and it's great that they were able to recreate the book perfectly into a movie! In addition to the recreation, the acting, setting, costumes, and everything else I felt was just great. A&E and BBC did a great job at capturing everything perfectly. Every time I watch this movie, I hate that it has to end. I have yet to see any other versions of Pride and Prejudice, so I have no other versions to compare this one to, but I am sure that none of the others would do this version or the book justice


5 out of 5 stars Very good version   August 19, 2008
While this is quite a bit longer than any movie (for it is a television mini-series), it was done so well! Plus, any British television lovers would find this very agreeable.
