The original Pride and Prejudice as well the A&E version are my all time favorite movies. This movie does not follow the others and leaves out many of the most entertaining parts of the others. It is good if you are not looking for a remake of the original but leaves much to be desired if you are.
This is an excellent remake of a old classic. It held my attention from beginning to end. I have watched this at least 5 times since I purchased it. The actors who played Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy were splendid!!I felt like I was there and experiencing this "era" first hand.
If you wish to get totally lost in a wonderful movie, this is it. You will not regret purchasing it and will watch it over and over again.
This has become my all time favorite movie. I only wish they would make more movies such as this! I loved it!! Mary
Ever watch a movie and do something else at the same time -like ironing, pay bills, in-and-out-of-the-room and feel like you didn't miss anything of the movie? Well, this movie keeps you in place! It will keep your attention as the story unfolds.
My daughter rented this movie and after seeing it once, we started searching on Ebay so we could add this to our DVD collection. Don't you hate paying high prices for movies, when Ebay can supply a host of sellers with movies at affordable prices?
"Pride and Prejudice" is much like "Sense and Sensibility" or "The Inheritance" - set in similar time periods. It is a romance that goes through many ups-and-downs. Some of the characters you fall in love with, others you can't stand...but that's why it's called acting.
For teenage girls who like romantic movies - you will like this! Rent it first to see - and you shall agree! Then, head to Ebay!!!!!!!
I love this movie. The corresponding to buy this movie and the feedback was awsome. I love shoping on eBay. I will continue to buy on eBay. Best service I had. Thanks so much.
I tried the Pride and Prejudice DVD in one of my DVD players and it wouldn't play at all. I took it to my other DVD player, and the first 30 minutes of the DVD paused and skipped, (The first 30 minutes is an estimate- I base this on my viewing of the movie in the theater). I was going to return it but my new puppy was chewing on the packaging. So I decided to watch with the skipping and it finally stabilized. It gets to the second to last scene where the couple finally get together and the credits roll. The very last scene "the best part" is not even shown. I was sick. I paid around $10 for the DVD. This is my favorite movie. Now I will likely pay retail $20 to own this. This was the first and last time I will order a DVD through ebay. I chose not to leave feedback since the packaging was destroyed so I never tried to contact the seller.
This is my favorite movie and I had to have it so of course I went to ebay. DVD's are usually cheaper than buying them at a store and they come right to your door. I always check first on ebay before I purchase any movie from somewheres else and 99 percent of the time they are cheaper on ebay. I love EBAY!!!
Excellent adaptation of the Jane Austen novel--a bit different from the A&E version but the story still shines through. Keira Knightly is probably closer to Lizzie's true age & does a great job with the complexities of her character. Matthew Macfadyen is not the most handsome Darcy but has wonderful sex appeal & fabulous eyes! I did take offense to the modernization of the dialog at times but the overall production is striking.
