The five Bennet sisters -- including strong-willed Elizabeth and young Lydia -- have all been raised by their mother with one purpose in life: finding a husband. When a wealthy bachelor takes up residence in a nearby mansion, the Bennets are abuzz. Amongst the man's sophisticated circle of friends, surely there will be no shortage of suitors for the Bennet sisters. But when Elizabeth meets up with the handsome and -- it would seem -- snobbish Mr. Darcy, the battle of the sexes is joined.

Joe Wright's genius makes a story I would otherwise not care for truly interesting.
Nagyon jó film. Néha kicsit lassan halad elÅre a történet, de összességében jó, érdemes megnézni.
BarátnÅvel fÅleg két akciófilm között :)
I love such great classics. Jane Austen was a wrtier far beyond her time.
It's good for a short/quick version of the book...but I will always like the A&E version better!
I cannot stop watching this film! The direction is outstanding, the dialog is complex, the acting is outstanding, and the story is happy without being sappy.
I love this movie! Classic tale and Mr. Darcy is the hero every woman not only wants but needs!
Actually this wasn't as bad as I previously thought. But I HATE Shitely and Mcrapyen, and all the Romantic posturing eclipsed by the scene in which they meet on the misty moor at the end.

But I HATE Shitely and Mcrapyen, and all the Romantic posturing eclipsed by the scene in which they meet on the misty moor at the end. Way more Wuthering Heights than Austen, and basically just not necessary. Watch the BBC adaptation.

So why should non-English majors have any interest in this sort offull review
antique romance? Because it actually is romantic, in a way that's kind
of charming in its absence of contemporary wisecracking worldliness.
As historically authentic-looking as Pride & Prejudice is, it has far more invested in emotional authenticity -- you feel engaged every moment.full review
Pride & Prejudice satisfies as dreamy romance. It's not the razor-sharp satire that Austen can be, but it's lovely entertainment.full review
A stellar adaptation, bewitching the viewer completely and incandescently with an exquisite blend of emotion and wit.full review
One of the most delightful and heartwarming adaptations made from Austen or anybody else.full review
Any resemblance to scenes and characters created by Miss Austen is, of course, entirely coincidental.full review
Even the most rabid Janeites must allow that director Joe Wright, 33, has given Austen's novel a beguilingly youthful spin without compromising the novel's late-eighteenth-century manners.full review
