Lack luster
|
I recently purchased this film in addition to the 1997 version (starring Kate Beckinsale), not having seen either before. Hoping to recreate the elation I experienced when purchasing both the 2006 and the A&E Pride and Prejudice versions (both wonderful adapatations), I was rather disappointed. Overall, I would rate this version 2 stars instead of the 3 I give to the 1997 release.
Although I identify with the actors in the 1996 adaptation (they are well known in the US), this film overall is lack luster. The main elements of the novel are portrayed and the individual acting is fine, but this version is just not as good as the 1997 production. The costumes lack authenticity and the era is not well represented. It was almost like watching a hybrid version of the 1997 release and Clueless.
If you are interested in purchasing this film and you haven't seen it yet, I would highly recommend you rent it (along with the 1997 version) and come to your own conclusion. I will be "regifting" this one... |
