(1 - 49) of 49 OFCS Rating: 86% Fresh Page   1   "[A]dapted ... by Deborah Moggach and directed by Joe Wright with as much feel for what it means to be a novel as any adaptation of one I can think of."   Blogcritics.org   Alan Dale "Sumptuously filmed and brilliantly acted, this new "Pride & Prejudice' is a cinematic gem."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker "A fresh take on the old story with very handsome visuals, a cured direction and top-notch performances from Knightley and most of the cast."   european-films.net   Boyd van Hoeij 8/10 "Most impressive is the gentle slide that the sensible Lizzie takes into romance – the realization that she loves Darcy dawns on her as simply as the gorgeous opening sunrise."   Freeze Dried Movies   Brian Juergens A- "Joe Wright has met the challenge and delivered a film that should please fans, but thrill those who miss a little heart to go along with their tea and disapproval."   FilmJerk.com   Brian Orndorf C+ "CliffsNotes version"   AboutFilm.com   Carlo Cavagna "Without the sharp edge of Austen's language, kissy images just look mushy, and don't do justice to golden girl Keira Knightley."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 4/4 "It would be most inconvenient [to loathe this movie] since, having already seen it (thrice and counting), I swore to love it for all eternity."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   David N. Butterworth A "It gets a pleasantly fresh, youthful and modern treatment, while staying true to the author's work."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz "This new 'Pride & Prejudice' is faithful to the spirit of its observer-recorder of two-hundred years ago."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Donald J. Levit 6/10 "za obi%u010Dnu publiku, %u010Dije %u0107e potrebe za kvalitetnim filmom zadovoljiti ova holivudska obrada knji%u017Eevnog evergrina, koja po svemu sude%u0107i nije posljednja."   Index.hr   Dragan Antulov 3/5 "Una película irónica y romántica, con lujos de ambientación y fotografía, fiel al espíritu de la novela de Jane Austen en que se basa."   Uruguay Total   Enrique Buchichio B+ "When all the obstacles between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy are eventually removed, you'd have to be stone dead not to have your heart melt at least a little bit."   eFilmCritic.com   Eric D. Snider 3/4 "Lavishly presented and tranquil in its sumptuousness...Wright's disciplined direction and Knightley's high-spirited performance fortifies this profound production."   Movie Eye   Frank Ochieng A- "The same old story about finding Mr. Right, but shows that if your take on the familiar tale is sufficiently deft, it can be as fresh and enchanting as Austen's book itself."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 5/5 "An enchanting screen version that breathes new life into Austen's classic novel, thanks mainly to a superb performance by Keira Knightley."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 3.5/4 "Of Austen's novels, none is more beloved than this one, so it's good to see it once again brought to the screen with the pride which it deserves."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli '3.5/4' "Will send even the stoniest hearts into a rhythmic pitter-pat."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 9/10 "Adds up to an entertainment that is surprisingly transporting."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen "This isn’t your grandmother’s Pride and Prejudice but, surprisingly, it’s not a travesty of the book either."   Pajiba   Jeremy C. Fox 8/10 "If you thought people played too many 'head games' in relationships nowadays, check out the rules that these folks had to abide by way back when. It’s nuts!"   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 3/5 "When it comes to adapting Austen I'll take period charm any day over loud noise and India, but only if it's done with a bit of ambition - this production fails to find any."   FilmFocus   Joe Utichi A- "Wright mines new territory with bold casting moves, and a realistic earthy production design"   Old School Reviews   John A. Nesbit 6/10 "A film with zero pace that centers around a forced romance and more dancing than Saturday Night Fever and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo combined."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick 2.5/5 "full review in Greek"   Movies for the Masses   Joseph Proimakis 4.5/5 "Incredible to see something so familiar reinvented so accessibly to "mainstream audiences" while still remaining true to the source material; kudos to Deborah Moggach!"   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery '3/5' "The real find is Matthew Macfadyen as the aristocratic Mr. Darcy."   Film-Forward.com   Kent Turner 3.0/4.0 "... the classic chick flick story long before any flick found the word chick."   MovieCrypt.com   Kevin A. Ranson 2.5/4 "I wasn't moved by the romance, but the lush art direction, pretty music and gorgeous cinematography did get to me."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest A "...that most unusual of films - one that improves upon its golden age forebear. "   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 4/4 "English director Joe Wright's fresh, vivid adaptation of Jane Austen's much-filmed Pride and Prejudice is an eloquent reminder that times change but people don't."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh A "Pride & Prejudice is a lovely production, with spectacular estates and soft, golden hues, but it's far from a musty affair."   Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema   Mark Pfeiffer 5/10 "In truth, there is little wrong with this film that would not have been excusable if it were the first version in two decades rather than six months. PRIDE AND PREJUDICE is competently made."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 3/4 "A good, old-fashioned movie with a pretty star, a good heart and no cynicism"   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes "[I]t's beautiful and luminous and sexy and rambunctious and suspenseful and passionate and visceral... Oh, it's downright exhausting just thinking about how wonderful and even necessary this movie is."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 3.5/4 "This is a vibrant, funny film that doesn't feel like a period piece. (And I mean that as a big compliment.)"   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan 4/5 "A aura de inevitabilidade da conclusão torna a experiência relativamente previsível, mas a trajetória até o desfecho é, sem dúvida alguma, repleta de charme."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca 4/5 "At least these filmmakers make it properly cinematic, finely focussing the story while keeping it gritty and realistic"   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline A "It may be the best, and most faithful theatrical film adaptation of the book ever."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten A- "Pride & Prejudice is literature come to life on the screen."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 4/5 "... this production is an oasis of class and style: filmmaking in the very grand manner."   JWR   S. James Wegg 2/4 "Comes across as prim and rigid, a feature bound by a corset."   Charlotte Weekly   Sean O'Connell "As historically authentic-looking as Pride & Prejudice is, it has far more invested in emotional authenticity -- you feel engaged every moment."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek A- "Breathes new life into characters and conversations never before quite wholly free from the printed page."   Decent Films Guide   Steven D. Greydanus 6/10 "Stilted yet sentimental, the melodrama leaves one feeling more depressed than elated, and Keira Knightley is far too beautiful to be anyone's 2nd choice."   Modamag.com   Susan Granger 3.5/4 "Sumptuously produced and terrifically acted, this lively and pricelessly funny depiction of a fiery romance in Regency-era England is an across-the-board triumph."   Reel.com   Timothy Knight 3/4 "It's funny, but it's mean."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw "Click here to see review"   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf 3.5/4 Read review   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick  (1 - 49) of 49 OFCS Rating: 86% Fresh Page   1
