Critic Reviews
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
It's a fitfully engaging romance, it's just not Pride and Prejudice.
-
Ken Tucker, New York Magazine
Keira's cat-smile suggests such supernal all-knowingness that, with Austen's adapted dialogue (via Deborah Moggach) tripping off her tongue, she comes off as an eighteenth-century Maureen Dowd.
-
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer
Dare I say that even Jane Austen herself would have delighted in the final triumph of Ms. Knightley's quick-witted Elizabeth in this film? Yes, I do, and all the highbrow and middlebrow cinephobes of the world be damned.
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
I just feel like I've seen this so many times.
-
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
As historically authentic-looking as Pride & Prejudice is, it has far more invested in emotional authenticity -- you feel engaged every moment.
