"Being a huge fan of period dramas, literary adaptations and Keira Knightley, I was delighted by the latest adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. It is everything a movie should be, and then some. Great storytelling, an amazing soundtrack, an innovative director and a splendid soundtrack, it is definitely a movie you should own. It tells a classic story of Elizabeth Bennet, a smart, boyish heroine who meets the handsome Mr. Darcy, and judging solely on first impressions, believes he is "the last man on Earth she could ever possibly be prevailed upon to marry". Of course, it wouldn't be a Jane Austen adaptation if it wasn't for numerous plot twists, complicated character connections and humorous plays on words. Keira Knightley is perfect as Elizabeth, the role which not only propelled her to stardom, but also earned her an Oscar nomination in 2005. She is everything a classic heroine should be - sensual, expressive and beautiful, maybe even a little more than she should ha ... "

"By Tricia Olszewski Elizabeth Bennett is not a giggler. The heroine of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice is quick-witted and headstrong, capable of being charming and even playful but more known for sharply speaking her mind, even if it does ruin the mood. She’ll smile, she’ll laugh, but under no circumstances will Elizabeth titter like a schoolgirl. Unless, that is, she’s being played by Keira Knightley. Straight from her miscasting as a bloodthirsty tough in Domino, Knightley is charged with another girl-power portrayal in British director Joe Wright’s version of the early-19th-century classic. And though she’s much better suited to this role than her last, Knightley’s dippy interpretation of Elizabeth undercuts the strength and appeal of Austen’s character—and therefore the love/hate romance at the novel’s center. It doesn’t help that this seems to be the 100th recent retelling of the story. Actually, it’ ... "

"Men - don't let your women bring this home for you to watch.Women - if you love your men, don't bring this home for them to watch. Keep this DVD on the shelves at Blockbuster and reduce the nation's divorce rate.Becoming Jane is painfully slow, not terribly interesting, and sloppily written. Since next to nothing is known about Austen's life, some genius thought that Jane Austen's life must have been a combination of her novels. So we, the movie viewing community get conned into this. I'm not an Austen hater -- Pride and Prejudice is very good (movie and TV mini versions) and I didn't mind Emma either. Here's an example of the sloppy story, which makes you unsure of how to judge the characters: Jane is furious at a boy who leaves her to take care of his family... later he comes back to her, they're both happy, then she leaves him because it's best for her family. Both times we're supposed to side with Jane. Come on. Consistency ... "

"The thing I like about this movie the most is that, as Elizabeth slowly begins to fall in love with Mr. Darcy- so does each and every member of the audience fall in love with him. By the end of the film you cant help but feel entirely satisfied. You can only call me Mrs. Darcy when you are perfectly and totally and completely incandescently happy. "

"I watched Pride and Prejudice last night. I did like it a lot, more than I expected to. It was captivating...in a love story kind of way. By the end of the movie I new that I really loved Darcy too. "

The fell-asleep tag

"As I was browsing the site, I came across the "fell-asleep" tag also known as the "fellasleep" tag. I added the tag to a few films. Some movies with this tag are: Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Pride & Prejudice, The Godfather, The Matrix...what a strange list of movies. Does falling asleep during a movie say something about the movie? The sleeper? Neither? Does the "fell-asleep" tag create a list of movies that you should watch when you're not feeling sleepy? Does it create a list of people who aren't as passionate about films as others? Or does it just mean nothing to anyone except that the person who fell asleep should just be getting more sleep?
