ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!

Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Armand using the Jane Austen novels, the director does a fascinating web of relationships, emotions and events. pink, soft, amusing, it is the type of movie who experiments a special romanticism in inspired manner. a book club and the shadow of a writer. nothing complicated but useful for the geography of the characters area. delicate feminism, a young man lost in the search of deep senses of books, the plans, the life, the projects and temptations. and not surprising end. it is a good film not only for script or cast but for the science of detail, for the fresh air, for a form of joy and bitter side of happiness. and for a lovely atmosphere. a film for chicks is the first verdict. maybe, in same measure, a film for rediscover/rereading Jane Austen. maybe... . but, more important, a lovely work.

Annie B This is the story of 6 people, all connected to each other and Jane Austen in different ways. Each of them starts in a bad place of some sort, and through Jane and each other, they each learn lessons about life and love. Sappy? Not really. I did not have high hopes for this movie, but I loved it by the end. This movie made me want to read more Jane Austen. Like right away. I have read only two of her books and I know that after I read the rest this movie will be doubly pleasing. However, I still immensely enjoyed the movie. It is endearing, funny and enjoyable. In the beginning I had a hard time keeping the characters straight, however by the end I was smiling way to much at how everything turned out. All in all, a very lovely chick flick. :)

fdarcy I don't know if this is one of the best films I have seen. But this is certainly one of the most intelligent. films based on books (and I'm referring to Austen books, I didn't read the novel it's based upon) tend to be irritating, often insulting the original books and the intelligence of their readers. when the film tries to stay "loyal", in many occasions it is nothing but a poor shadow of the original book.This film is nothing of this sort. Those who made it really loved and understood Jane Austen (and literature in general). Anyone of admires her books will find in this movie lots to think about. And still, it is also a movie, with beautiful and interesting characters, none of them is made ridiculous or flat.Small movie, but worth every second of watching.

bluechipmunk Despite the fact that all the protagonists are incredibly lovely, the movie begins grounded in reality. Nothing works, everything is broken. And then, like the best Jane Austen fare, it descends into a realm where men are sensitive and fairy tales do come true.This movie has fantasy men for all.First, the incredibly handsome and charming science-fiction nerd will stop at nothing to win the heart of a woman who has really not given him much to work with. But don't we all wish that there were wonderful men suitably devoted and persistent? In real life, it's usually a sort of weird guy who is hopelessly awkward and won't take a hint (if it's anyone at all).Then the husband who runs off with another woman... only to see his ex-wife at opportune moments (while she are lunching with an incredibly attractive man, for instance). A husband who comes back for her, even more in love with her than before. Every woman who's just been dumped for the secretary wants her husband to see the error of his way, to be sensitive enough to write her a letter about how flawed his choice was...In short, it is a Jane Austen book all of its own, with some piece of true love for everybody.
