Jane Austen's perennially popular story of the game of love among the British upper classes returns to the screen in this polished film adaptation. The Bennets (Brenda Blethyn and Donald Sutherland) are the parents of five daughters near the close of the 18th century. Comfortable within their means but well short of rich, Mr. and Mrs. Bennet are looking for suitable husbands for their girls, and they are encouraged to learn that an eligible young bachelor from a wealthy family, Charles Bingley (Simon Woods), has moved into a nearby estate. Eager to see if a match can be made, the Bennets bring their daughters Elizabeth (Keira Knightley) and Jane (Rosamund Pike) to a ball thrown by their new neighbor to see if sparks will fly. Jane seems to like Charles, and he appears to feel the same, but Elizabeth takes an immediate dislike to Darcy (Matthew MacFadyen), Charles' egocentric best friend. While Elizabeth is infatuated with military man Lt. Wickham (Rupert Friend) and finds herself courted by William Collins (Tom Hollander), a well-meaning but drab man of the cloth, fate causes Elizabeth and Darcy to frequently cross paths, and while they don't care for one another, they can't stop thinking about each other, either. Pride & Prejudice also stars Jena Malone, Judi Dench, and Penelope Wilton. Mark Deming, Rovi

I enjoyed this film. Kiera Knightley is a great actress. This wasn't my favorite Darcy portrayal but it wasn't a hindrance to the film. They did a great job and it was a fun watch.

a must see classic romance
For all those wonderful people who love romance... this is a treat for you! It is a wonderful old fashioned love story that makes it easy to locate yourself in it. We have all been proud and judgemental when it comes to people .. and this is an honest account of the pride and the prejudice attitudes and also the humility and transparency needed to make it such a wonderful success. we need more of the humility and transparency today...and this lovely story reminds us of this exactly. three cheers !!!
